Gamespot did a piece about the New IP, based on Aaryn Flynn's interview. While I watched it and thought it was an awesome interview, there's some transcriptions here from stuff I didn't get. - Seems like the Secret IP is the style of every other Bioware game, so it is an RPG like they usually do, basically. - They say it's made by the KOTOR team, like the job posting we were just talking about. So that might be for this one. - While Shadow Realms didn't take, they hope to do a good co-op in a future game. I would love to hear the decision process of why Shadow Realms was cancelled almost immediately after being announced.

Found this on NeoGaf. Not sure if it's Secret IP, because it looks like the other New IP. So many Bioware secret IPs. Does anyone else think there is a copy/paste error in the job posting? Part says "Lead Level Designer" but the rest says "Lead Systems Designer". Unless I'm mistaken, those are very different roles. Couldn't this be an MP mode for Secret IP? Why must it be YASIP (Yet Another Secret IP)?

Couldn't this be an MP mode for Secret IP? Why must it be YASIP (Yet Another Secret IP)? I don't know anything about the job titles. But it was already confirmed there is more then a new IP. Shinobi confirmed another thread of another job title that it was another IP apart from the famous Secret IP. Also, when Shadow Realms was cancelled, an EA CEO said that Bioware still has a couple of new IPs in development. I think the theory during the other job posting was that the Secret IP is Edmonton and the semi-online IP is Austin. Nothing that says this job posting can't be about MP for Secret IP, of course.

They have listings up for both a Lead Systems AND a Lead Level Designer on their Careers website, but yeah, it looks like someone forgot to change that part of the template when they did the Systems posting. I dunno. Blow what "shinobi" says, I'm just going to assume it's all related to the Secret IP we know-but-don't-really-know-about until they announce otherwise themselves.

I would love to hear the decision process of why Shadow Realms was cancelled almost immediately after being announced. It happened after Andrew Wilson took over as the new CEO. He also canceled that Command & Conquer browser game and the MOBA they were developing called Dawngate, basically got rid of any game that wasn't reviewing well internally.

How would you guys feel if the Secret IP were a vampire-based thing like World of Darkness, or with a 'True Blood' vibe? Not saying I am hoping for it more than anything, but I wonder how a Bioware RPG like that would go.

Something like Secret World's modern-day conspiracy theories might work well, I'm also partial to cyberpunk.

Loved just about every minute of it. Except the fricken' Tzim...something battle. That I could do without. Have you played it recently? Or seen anyone play it on Windows 10? I know there are a huge number of community patches which have massively stabliised the game, but not sure if it's available for the latest OS.

bsn.boards.net/post/173987/threadI posted that in the Dragon Age Twitter thread, but the gist of it also applies here. I know that the revenue recognition thing is not the only reason they've not announced DA4, or given more than a scrap of info on Secret IP, but it is A reason. So...thoughts? Are we likely to see tweet-teases ramp up significantly for either or both DA/Secret after the end of EAs current financial year? Maybe leading to a full-on announcement/info dump once ME:As promo cycle has wound down?
