The problem is those tweets while clear in meaning aren't very clear about the future of Mass Effect. It seems odd that they would stop doing MP DLC when it doesn't require to much work and the payoff can be huge (new dlc means new cash shop purchases). We do know there is at least one more SP DLC coming because it was hinted out and I doubt they would scrap it, though it is possible.
The Tweets could just be referencing that the current ME3 team is moving on to new projects while they go into maintenance mode while much of the team moves on to me4 or other Bioware projects. It could be the last meetings for that team, but not the last meetings for ME3. I do know some of the other team members had used words like last meeting ever and stuff.
It just seems like if it was the end of new stuff for ME3 Bioware would at least have made an official announcement.

You know a community is bad when moderators lock a thread because "...this isnt the place to talk about it either seeing as it will get trolled..."
There's a huge problem, though. If Bioware releases a DLC that changes the ending, people would complain about having to pay for it, and if Bioware releases a standard DLC pack then people will also complain because it didn't change the ending.
There's really no way out for Bioware.
You'll always have people complain so its that wouldn't be that big of a problem. The larger problem would be why would people pay for something that they can already do through the "breathing" scene? Would people really pay X amount for a 30 second cutscene of Shepard with a love interest? Lets assume that it is a whole new survival then the one already implied.
What would have the power to make Shepard survive that wasn't "space magic"? That was a full DLC worthy story. Another problem is EMS and Assets. You have to actually try for the bad endings now. It is even harder if you've been doing Multiplayer and have 100% effectiveness and multiple promotions. Anything super high would require Multiplayer to get or for the new DLC to reward those assets.
There are a lot of issues with a Shepard Lives DLC in my opinion the least of which is complainers.

why make a dlc in the aftermath of the ending? you cant controll shepard (unless he did survive the red ending) so it would be mostly either cutscenes or playing as a team member (while i wouldnt mind doing that i fell it should only be used in the future of the franchise since in all 3 games you only controll shepard at all times)
someone else might have gotten it wrong.
I wouldn't expect a new squadmate, it takes a huge amount of time and effort to incorporate them fully into the story. They'd need to have lines for almost every mission, it's a huge undertaking and the mission in the dlc would surely suffer for it.

I wouldn't, I pick Control and dislike Destroy. This dlc would be totally wasted on me and I'd be very disappointed. I do not want anymore ending dlc.

i wasent saying the dlc was only in order for shepard to survive. it could well be before the ending and you manage to do smthin that would let you survive in red along with the geth in edi but you could still decide to kill yourself if you want to

Meh, I think a "Shepard lives DLC" would fit. Plenty of space magic to go around already, might as well make use of it

Would still only be pertinent to 1/3 of the original game's results. Making a DLC that exclusive is generally not a good business.
No, no more ending DLC. I want the next one to be a great mission with a great story and character development. I'm absolutely sick of hearing about the ending and how we should have dlc for it.

I have a question. Is there anyway in the multiplayer to do significant damage with guns? I mean my biotic detonations can 2 shot most enemies but it takes forever to take out the bigger units on my soldier. Is it just that my weapon isnt strong enough? I havent played in a long time so i dont have many new weapons but i just wanna know if its a lost cause trying to do the majority of my damage with an assault rifle type gun while using adrenaline.
Ok i have Revenant and Mattock what do u mean by BE?
