They are ending early.
Fernando did state they are still looking into whether the cryo ammo overwriting bug can be fixed, but he didn't sound optimistic.

I just realized I'm going full-DDRguy on this thread.
That ham-fisted "Celebration" bullshit and no new equipment may have finally tipped me into the Wangsty Whiners Club.

jrandall0308: FERNANDO - Equipment: a few weeks ago we thought all remaining new Equipment would show up in the Store before it became a truly random rotation. Can you please force the new Equipment to drop over the next several weeks? thebenwa: JRandall0308 we looked into that specifically but it would require consistent currently unscheduled updates jrandall0308: @thebenwa I am not sure I understand what that means but I will take it as a 'no' - thanks for answering. |

Sounds like they'd have to arrange to manually do it but don't want to.
Should be possible, if they were so motivated, that they could do it for a week or two and then revert to the current system or even set up a rotation so everything would be obtainable within a 2 month span at 4 per week.

I'm pretty sure that next week will be the last stream. They'll dump the remaining info on the release schedule through N7 day then peace out and let the automated processes take it from there.

Does it ever feel to anyone else like Bioware is the teenage girl at her prom and Mass Effect is the baby in the dumpster?

Does it ever feel to anyone else like Bioware is the teenage girl at her prom and Mass Effect is the baby in the dumpster? More like BSN is the girl at the prom, who got anally fucked on the top of the gym by the nerdy guy (BioWare) who slipped a mickey in our Gin & Tonic. |

Fernando came through with answers to all 3 Tweets. In order:
(1) Equipment / new / rotation
(2) release new content before playerbase dies
(3) Map Challenges playable on any difficulty

I can't imagine a single reason at this point not to simply make the last few - or even the whole slate - available at once. I can understand the argument - despite thinking that it's blisteringly fucking stupid - for continuing the drip-drop of characters, but what utility could there possibly be in continuing to lock two of the best 4-5 equipment items (Stronghold and Structural Ergonomics) six months after release? It's especially asinine considering that, if we take their responses at face value, those items aren't even locked as a result of any strategy or deliberate choice, but simply because they didn't code their fucking RNG properly. |

It's especially asinine considering that, if we take their responses at face value, those items aren't even locked as a result of any strategy or deliberate choice, but simply because they didn't code their fucking RNG properly. Reading between the lines, all of their responses are 'we're not making any changes. The stuff set to happen automatically will occur and that's it, unless maybe if there's game-breaking problems like today's crash issue.' Mark my words, next week we'll hear about the automated schedule, and that they're done with the streams. After that, all communication outlets will be closed. Don't expect anything else. |
