EPCOR Tower @epcor_Tower We're excited to welcome @bioware to downtown Edmonton! They'll be moving into 3 floors in @epcor_Tower. #yegdt #yeg bit.ly/2hmHqFb Wait. What about the geese? Can they come too? Hopefully those flying rats won't crap on their new headquarters. |

Every time I see the tower name I think it says Epcot and I picture the devs working on the game at Disney World. That would certainly put a spin on the game.

Come on... did you actually read it before posting? Don't get people's hopes up with this kind of thing. The update to the piece is posted right there at the top. Besides, the original reporting is from a non-Bioware person who "heard" a thing. And this is the problem in relying on this type of game "journalism." Someone can say whatever they want and it gets spread around the internet without any verification whatsoever. The linked Kotaku article has more accurate info about how all this misinformation came to be a thing.

I don't really get the joke in posting an outdated article about a Star Wars cRPG in a thread about Dragon Age? You may need to explain it to those of us with no sense of humour.

John Epler @eplerjc
It took me nearly 20 minutes to find my way out of the DICE studio. Hi, I'm a functioning adult and a creative lead on a major game franchise, AMA.
At one point I think I found my way off this plane of reality.

So John's not just narrative presentation lead, but creative lead now, eh?
Also - I wondered whether he's visiting DICE when he began tweeting that he's in Sweden. Turns out that he is. Really curious about why :3

Really curious about why :3 Now that most developers under EA are using Frostbyte as their engine, there seems to be a lot more inter-team work going on, to help on different parts of the games. For example, on DICE's new game, SW Battlefront 2, it was actually EA Motive who made the single player campaign. So it could be either Bioware helping DICE ( I think they where the ones that developed the cinematic tools for the Frostbyte engine which is why a lot of EA's sport games have a campaign mode now) or vice versa. If I remember correctly another studio helped Motreal work out the Nomad controls in MEA. |

My question was rhetorical, hence the ':3' at the end. I'm fairly sure it's about Frostbite - but I still can't help being curious about all the potential discussions they had, given that we know what John is working on. |

Just was mentioning how it seems to be happening more often, that's why I brought up Battlefront 2 which had another studio do a whole part of the game. Does anyone know what EA Motive will be working on now they've finished that, since they have a large amount of devs since they absorbed Montreal, they can't be just seating round doing nothing? I know they where going to work on Visceral's Star Wars game but that's canceled in it's current form now. |

From my - very limited - point of view, it does seem that EA does have a few of 'support studios' that it can throw into development of games that require it. After all, BF2 is technically a DICE title, so it's hard to say what will happen in EA Motive after BF2 gets released or support for the game ends. |

Really curious about why :3 John's been the Narrative Presentation Lead for a couple of years now, and was the Lead Cinematic Designer before that. IIRC, Mike and Mark(?) flew out that way a few months back as well. So something-something-Frostbitey...?  |

I’m very excited about shiny new Secret Stuff at work, and already excited for the day when we can show it to you.  Joshua Crow @phxcrow Nov 10That's cool, what does EA motive do? Ian S. Frazier @tibermoonMotive made the SP campaign for Star Wars Battlefront 2, plus work on various Secret Things (TM). Thomas Busby @redundant_ukA day.... soon? Maybe? *wink wink, nudge nudge* Ian S. Frazier @tibermoonAlas, it's a bit too early now to deploy the #soon. But I do look forward to that glorious day. It's been too long since I last got to #soon. Was starting to miss it. |

If you read her comment, she says she put Flemeth in there for Mythal to be there in spirit, because Celene and Briala's relationship mirrors Mythal and Fen'Harel's. Weekes says it's accurate in his reply. |
