So i just got done talking to EA support about an issue with Crysis and asked them if Bioware points ever go on sale (wanting to buy ME2 DLC but it's way too expensive) they told me they'll be shutting down that program and the DLC will be purchasable directly through Origin.

So just a heads up, don't buy those for now, i'm guessing it'll be way cheaper to just buy the DLC directly instead of going through the point system. :)


PS: Yes, i know i posted this on GOG but i've seen people post about Steam as well and thought you guys should know. :p

Good to know. Thanks for the heads up!

Oh, good! I, too, have been waiting to get Shadow Broker for ME2.

i dont even know what bioware points are

Excellent! Thanks for the heads up on this. Been waiting for a long time to grab some of those DLC at a reasonable price.

Waiting for shutting down the SimPoints, FIFA points, NFS points and other stupid programs....

hope springs eternal

Ah, yes. Because now i remember: they did shut down the Bioware points program, but only for the new releases (DA:I, probably ME4). The program stays in place for all the older titles (ME2, ME3, DA2).

Typical EA bull.

It is stupid schemes like Bioware points that stop me buying the games that the DLC is for in the first place. Good riddance I say.

Well,it's not the end of the world.....

Finally, Bioware points are the main reason I have been hesitant to get any of the Mass Effect games. Now it would be great if they would also start releasing complete editions of their games instead of having to buy DLC piece by piece.

I don't know what these points are.

me neither
and nobody so far has explained what the fucking things are

That's precisely the reason they're shutting it down. Nobody knows. XD

At a guess, in game currency to buy dlc? But that's just using my logic which is rare.
