I doubt they'll say anything interesting on the dlc front. They'll continue to say, "we can't talk about." If they're asked directly, they legally have to answer their investors question.

I doubt they'll say anything interesting on the dlc front. They'll continue to say, "we can't talk about." If they're asked directly, they legally have to answer their investors question. If they haven't decided one way or the other they don't have to give a definitive answer to an investor. Obviously, since they put out a second trail and started sending out surveys they're gathering information about how they want to proceed with the game. If someone asks them about DLC, they can definitely say they can;t answer that right now, and will have more info in the future, or something along those lines.

- Year-on-year growth was driven by the Mass Effect: Andromeda sales captured in the quarter and by FIFA.
- The increase reflects strength in live services, together with our Mobile business. In addition, Mass Effect: Andromeda was a significant contributor.
- Full game PC and console downloads generated net sales of $111 million, 32% higher than last year. This was driven by Mass Effect: Andromeda sales captured in the quarter.
- In conclusion, we are delighted with the performance of our business in the first quarter
Seems ME:A did some good business

Seems ME:A did some good business The key takeaway is that it suggests that MEA did enough business.

Doubtful. ME:A's financials would have mostly been captured in FY17 Q4. This is a FY18 Q1 report. Still odd that they avoided MEA. I mean they could have still talked stats like avg number of people playing MP and how popular it is. Or how many total hrs has been locked into the SP campaign etc. I mean they could have mentioned SOMETHING. This is the ME brand we are talking about, not some 1bit title that wasnt really expected to push anything but Mass Effect! It's an investor call, not a fan call. They're not going to talk about any of that. If they were they would do it for BF1 or SIMs, or one of their straight up online games like Titanfall, but they don't often go into specifics on these things unless it's financially related.

Well, they say it was a significant contributor and that ME:A specifically drove up their profit percentages. All in all. Good news. Indeed, that is good news. More than I expected, truth be told.

Wow. Mentioning ME:A in a year-on-year growth statement is kind of surprising. And ME:A was specifically mentioned as being a key factor in quarterly digital download growth. All in all it seems to be a very positive statement from EA.

I wonder when the Q&A will be hosted up. The transcript? Good question. I'd say probably tomorrow would be the earliest I'd expect it...wait, their business day doesn't end for another couple of hours. I guess it could go up today if they're quick about it.

Hopefully, this will put an end to the "ME: A sold poorly!" narratively. I never said it sold poorly, just that it may not have sold what EA expected. If it sold 3.5 million that is not bad and is really good, but if they were expecting 5 million then while 3.5m is good, it still wasnt what they projected. So in regards to DLC, if they were going off the assumption that it would make 5m and budget DLC based off that revenue, then it completely changes things if it only sold 3.5mil But it is nice for them to mention MEA but that still brings us back to square one which is....when/where is the DLC?
