BioWare Defends Day-One DLC For Mass Effect 3

I was going to make that same request. If they are going to do it then they should make it free to anyone with a new copy. You can try to reason all you want by it still isn't going to take the stinch off.

Maybe they'll change it to be like that in time for the release? Maybe this is all a marketing ploy? *crosses fingers*

I don't mind when it's something everyone gets. That's fine.
But to charge money for cheap Day 1 DLC for something that probably should've been in the game in the first place? Terrible. Especially since they were planning the character from the beginning.

Now what if the plan was to make him DLC from the beginning?

I mean its justified to me. The game was completed n the team kept wrking. The DLC isnt THAT important. I dnt think its that essential to the overall story honestly. But having it will add more to the experience. I mean you're either gonna get it or not. I'm quite sure the only reason most ppl are upset bout this is b/c CE of the game were sold out by the time they realized they wanted it

Well, They better hold up on their little to no glitches excuse

Funny, everyone complained about the Zaeed DLC too because you had to pay for it when it was used.

Either way BioWare loses.

dont know what they want lol

I'm fine with this. There are worse DLC bandits than Bioware.

It's getting to the point where I'm just not going to buy anymore EA games. First it was buy it new to get a free DLC, which relatively acceptable. Then it was buy it new or pay them ten dollars to get the parts of the game they locked away. Now it's day one DLC that hold fairly important storyline elements. This nickle and dime approach to gaming is starting to disgust me. If I wanted to put up with that crap, I'd be playing whichever new Korean FTP MMO was currently in fashion.

I don't know. I paid for all of the DLC for Mass Effect 1 & 2. I didn't feel cheated or nickel and dimed. It's a choice to begin with. I downloaded what was available and played through. Downloaded the next batch and played through again. To be honest until the Firepower Pack became available none of the weapons changed the experience. I like the Arc projector but is wasn't something to take into battle against bosses. The Missions and Characters were awesome. I personally could've done with out the fire walker but hey I'm not a big fan of vehicles. IMO the only people who should be getting every single DLC available for every system are people who get paid to review and score these games for us peons. I hinge alot of my purchases on this website's word that something is worth the 10 or so dollars it will cost. No Pressure...

It can't be worse than DOA Extreme 2's DLC...

I think I'll wait for the 'Complete Edition'

I do have Mass Effect for the PC (which I have barely played), along with Mass Effect 2 for my PS3 (also which I have barely played) so getting through those will take some time so I'm not in too much of a hurry to see what happens.

This DLC doesn't sound like an add on or after thought. If it does in fact have fairly important plot points, and the fact that the XBL description alone contained spoilers suggests that it does, then this is clearly EA holding back content for a quick buck. Or 10. Or 20. I am a little shocked at how accepting most people seem to be.....this will only get worse. The Zaed DLC was day one too....why start charging now EA?

I've pre-ordered the CE and I'm trying to make sure I acquire every piece of DLC. The fact that its day one doesn't surprise me. I guess it's unfair to charge for it if you buy the game brandnew but it's business. I've never really had a prob with buyin dlc no matter the quality. Obtaining every piece of the game is just necessary to me especially ME3
