No more patches for MEA, so no more SP content, no more SP DLC. Also includes MP patches per Bastiaan. No big updates, no future patches. We do have more MP content that is coming in future months: new characters, new content to be unlocked, Apex missions. More info on that at a later date. As well as plans for N7 Day. For now, can't say too much. Stay tuned. Well, shit. You know, it's hard to articulate without sounding nonsensical, but even though I'd figured it was more likely than not they'd stick to the drip-drop schedule, I'm still somehow shocked. Do they seriously think anyone will still be around by then? I wanted to try all of these new characters, but at the rate my friends are falling away to new games, that's almost certainly never going to happen. In the immortal words of Pvt. Hudson, "Game over, man, game over." No, that does make sense. The reason being that as this game spirals more and more out of control, it becomes worse and worse to stick to the drip schedule.

jrandall0308: DiscoBabaloo should we continue reporting bugs on EA Answers HQ, or... is there no point? (not to be too blunt I hope) damn I keep losing connection

BralovSkirata: DiscoBabaloo I had a question about the weapon variants. concussion feels really good when it procs, but it feels realy unreliable, especially off host. is there any chance we could get a weaker explosion on non critical kills? would make it a lot more appealing on guns besides snipers. DiscoBabaloo: @bralovskirata not at this point :/ switching to my phone standby

Cryo Ammo overwrites the underlying debuffs from powers (Snap Freeze & Cryo Beam) and passives (Snap Freeze the passive). Is this correct? Seems like a trap for players who don’t know about the detailed tests done by dedicated fans. DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 @unclemonsterreal we'll see what we can do from server side

Cryo Ammo also has penalties to # of bullets needed to prime some enemies, but Incendiary and Disruptor don’t have such penalties. We’d like Cryo brought up to par with the others. DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 will take a look

biggy_dx: DiscoBabaloo What is the duration of the damage taken debuff for the Sustained Fire evolution in Munitions Training? There is no description of it in the tooltip. Can this information be added in for better clarity? DiscoBabaloo: @biggy_dx won't be able to add that in at this point, but may be able to get the info and post it publicly so at least it's known BralovSkirata: DiscoBabaloo I saw some new packs in the play station store that let people buy specific characters and guns in a bundle for cash. Is there any possible world where we see somehting like that available for credits or mission funds? or is that outside the scope of what you guys can commit to/look into. DiscoBabaloo: @bralovskirata ya, those just released today, we can take a look but for now they are available on the platform stores

I get the feeling that this no more support thing was a surprise to MP team as well. It seems they ran out of time and people and money. Maybe I am wrong. Still their hard work is appreciated! I simply love this MP.

Incendiary Ammo does NOT deal bonus damage to armor, despite what the tooltip says. Is this a bug? DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 not sure :/ will check --- reminder I can't read my own thread while typing these Scrapper used to have Flamethrower but they wanted to give him more stagger tools so he could get into melee.

I simply love this MP. Yeah, the responses sound like they had the rug pulled out from under them. Contrast to last week's responses where they seemed convinced they could put in a few more fixes/balance changes in a patch. Fernando in particular sounds frustrated.

orangejacinto: Hey DiscoBabaloo could there ever be offline Apex missions? DiscoBabaloo: @orangejacinto no they're updated online only biggy_dx: DiscoBabaloo Will multiplayer livestreams still continue to be a weekly thing till N7 day, or will there be a lull up - at some point - until N7 day? Bastiaan clarifying the 'buy an uncommon' packs in the store are intended for new players.

Uhh, Snap Freeze and flamethrower would have cancelled each other out. Their reason didn't work out but I'm glad they didn't do that.

Scrapper used to have Flamethrower but they wanted to give him more stagger tools so he could get into melee. Ummmm.. what? Snap Freeze doesn't stagger.. so is the implication that he originally had both Snap Freeze and Flamethrower (which cancel the fuck out of each other)??!! Or am I misunderstanding something?

The damage done by barrels was reduced massively in 1.09. Why?! This was one of the most fun parts of the game! DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 most likely due to balance data DiscoBabaloo awww well the balance data is wrong, LOL!

Is there a cap or point of diminishing returns with weapon accuracy? Ex: stacking a weapon scope, the Turian Soldier passive tree, Turbocharge, and Fortify accuracy. DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 better question for BASTIAAN but depending on the wp it may have a min which you can't improve past FYI I have lost video, just focused on chat now.

biggy_dx: DiscoBabaloo Does the team still have the capacity to make new APEX modifiers? Also, could things stats like XP, Credits, and Mission Funds be adjusted for them? DiscoBabaloo: @biggy_dx yes, mostly - some things we can't but its pretty flexible system BralovSkirata: DiscoBabaloo any plans to tweak the bonus stats from extra character ranks? some are perfect, but others feel really bad to get. ie, its impossible for the turian soldier to detonate combos, but he gets 40% combo damage like everyone else. DiscoBabaloo: @bralovskirata not at this point :/ the stats affect all kits, and some will benefit more than others solace_uk: Speaking of: DiscoBabaloo Are you able to modify the Variant effects without patches? Is it only numbers you can influence this way, or can you change functionality as well? DiscoBabaloo: @solace_uk yes, we can mod that

First Aid Packs: could these please refresh player shield- and healthgate and grant damage + stagger immunity (i-frames)? Would make them more useful for skilled play and encourage more frequent use. DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 not at this point :/ (patch would be needed) (i asked if it was a good idea at least - reponse) DiscoBabaloo: JRandall0308 was, we'd need to really look at the balancing but might have been possible
