PSN updated already which is why I asked bc I didnt get any patch prompt. Is it a patch or is it DLC you have to get off the store?

Dlc from the store, I'm dl it right now, and it's only cinematics, no gameplay

 

[Team Andino]

How do we load up the new DLC cut scenes?

 

[iamlegend]

Eh that's too vague for me: it seems more like they're referring to the space flight technology, etc. rather than rebuilding the Geth and EDI. I guess you can just imagine your own canon, but that's really lame to have to do that IMO lol.

I'd like to think EDI would sacrifice herself for my Paragon Shep; I wouldn't return the favour by blowing her to pieces, even if there was an imaginary chance she might be rebuilt in an imaginary ending.

Just my own preference, though.

It all comes down to how you play your character. My Shepard was going to blow the Reapers out of the sky, come Hell or high water... so it was easy for me to go Destroy.

thanks! I'll check it out later

You've actually gotta play out the entire ending again, from the Cerberus base on...

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

The new scenes start right BEFORE the end of the beam charge.

If you want the lower EMS values for the Best Destroy endings you need to start from before the Cerberus Assault.

Oh screw that, only chance of me redoing the ending is when I restart on Insanity. I'll just have to look for the new cut scenes on Youtube. Thanks for the heads up though.

 

[iamlegend]

All told, the EC wrapped up enough loose ends for me to be quite content.

I was never all that upset with the three ending options that were originally presented - maybe it's because I honestly didn't follow much of Bioware's marketing jargon, maybe it's because I never expected a game to be able to crunch all the variables necessary to make as many endings as people seemed to want. I don't know.

I was more annoyed with how things just... ended... in the original cut. No explanation as to what in the heck just went down, no follow up, nothing. Just a ton of questions. And the EC has cleared that up. So I'm good.

 

[Reek]

Spidey... can you restart the Cerberus base and get the new endings, or do you have to start before that... I read somewhere you have to load a save thats before the base...not sure if that includes restarting the msision or not

True enough, it just seems to me that most people are going with Destroy as the "best" option, which I find strange for my Shep lol.

That's good to know and I fully agree that the "just ended" issue was probably the biggest glaring issue with the other ending.

I will say that overall, the new/extended endings are sounding a lot more appealing than what we had initially, which is a plus. Sounds like they aren't the best they could've been, but they're no longer the worst, either. I guess we'll just have to live with that and accept them for what they are now.

 

[Reek]

I'm still liking the IT personally... Throughout the game you have some kid haunting your dreams...and the ending is basically that kid as a blue apparition. the kid tries to convince you against destroy...where thats the only way you survive.

eh.

 

[Master Chief]

IGN has that on their site... SEVERAL HOURS? seriously? if by several hours they mean 15 minutes?

They have an employee in the game... 'nuff said lol.

Did you try a later save and the new scenes didn't pop? Coz there is absolutely no new content at all until the run to the beam.

The reporter? OHHH the complete waste of space... Her room could have been an opium den.

Should have been Emily Wong. Sooooo many missed opportunities.

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

While I didn't like Allers, Wong's twitter death was actually pretty good.

I would have had Al-Jilani as the news reporter.

 

[The Infernal]

Havok83, where is your avatar from? It looks like the 90's X-men series, but a bit more anime.

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

Isn't that from that short lived X-Men cartoon where Wolverine was Australian?

 

[zenith16]

No upset spidey it isn't. it's just a new animation of the 90's version by a very talented person doing that as a hobby.

 

[Upset Spideyfan]

Oh, neat.

 

[zenith16]

I was a big fan of the version you mentioned I was all about the X-men and spdiey from the jump as a kid . even though wolverine sounded like he was from down under. oh man how that led up to hugh jackman. weird. but he didn't matter to me that much in that or anything since that. i was about that team and them hanging with spidey. that was one of my first exposers to them both. but this is becoming off topic.

 

[craigdbfan]

While the animators are talented it wasn't done as a hobby. It's the Japanese opening for the 90's X-Men series.

It was a Japanese animation team that created it.

 

[BrollySupersj]

So they gave us a refusal ending? That...is better I suppose.

oh my bad I forgot all about that Japanese version.
