    Mass Effect 2

    Game » consists of 21 releases. Released Jan 26, 2010

    After a violent death by an unknown force and a timely reanimation by the human supremacist organization Cerberus, Commander Shepard must assemble a new squad in the seedier side of the galaxy for a suicide mission in the second installment of the "Mass Effect" trilogy.

    So, they pretty much announced another DLC pack.

    Booted up the game today to continue my Insane playthrough and I happened to read the Cerberus Daily News thingie. 
    Sadly they won't be continuing with the daily updates any more, but there is a plus side to it. 
      
     Here's what they said:
     

    The Cerberus Daily News will begin a hiatus on January 24th, finishing its run of one full year. Daily postings will cease except for three weeks in 2011: a week of posts will precede a downloadable content release, and two more weeks will lead up to the release of Mass Effect 3. The CDN team thanks fans for their attention, comments, and feedback (both in and out of character!). We are sorry to go, but we had fun — we hope you did, too!

    I'd love to know when to even expect it.  
    This stuff here is pretty damn vague so it could be as early as February or as late as October.

    Great news that there's another DLC but what a huge bummer that there gonna stop the fake Cerberus Daily News, I really enjoyed reading that stuff everytime I logged in, reading the fake news about stuff that happens in that universe made it feel more real and alive, especially when they talked about stuff like the intergalactic olympics, superbowl and the new years eve times square ball

    I actually had no idea they updated it daily with news about the ME universe. That makes me kinda sad since it sounds really awesome.

    The DLC packs are going to connect ME2 to ME3. I heard they will make three of them, Shadow Broker was the first.

    For anyone interested in past Cerberus Daily News, archives are available at Mass Effect Wiki. Not quite the same as checking in every day, but it can be enjoyable.

    I remember reading a news post from February or so, where it mentioned that a slave ring or a drug cartel got taken down and Spectre Tela Vasir declined to comment.  And then six months later, there's Tela Vasir in the video game flesh.  Awesome.

    They did the same thing with Hock from Kasumi's DLC. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if one of the names that keep popping up also pop up in some DLC or ME3. This Rolan Quarn turian conman guy or the supposedly dead Lira Speight from Garvug seem like the more likely contenders.
     
    Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if Garvug itself was part of some DLC.

    I hope it is character focused. I would love to see more of Thane and Mordin and Samara in the DLC. A mission like Overloard was cool and stuff but the character attachment that was alreadt established made Lair of the Shadow Broker much easier to enjoy

    I want an expansion pack that will last in 20 hours or more first playthrough, and gaps the story in ME3. But if not, a 1-2 hour DLC with more Mass Effect is good too. I loved all of the DLC's so, "Yes please!"

    The fake news was kind of cool, but I must admit I only read about 10 % of the news during the year. Maybe I'll catch up by reading it on that webside you linked to. 
     
    I didn't expect more DLC, but I'm not complaining, the quality of the DLC have been good so far unlike the ME1 or DA DLC.

    Just so I'm clear on the timeline of events... is there even a timeline of events on any of the Mass Effect 2 DLC? While I know Overlord, Shadow Broker, and Kasumi's stuff can all be done before and after the final events of the game, how would this play out if they were to make DLC that connects ME2 to ME3? Should we just assume that all DLC is completely timeline neutral, henceforth meaning they directly have nothing to do with the final events of the game?

    I hope it's released sooner rather than later. It would make sense if it was sooner, but I could see them dropping it before ME3.

    That is true, but then again, I don't know when in the process of making games do they even have the script or have them read but I guess that if they are currently working on some ME3 they could easily do some stuff for a ME2 DLC

    It happens fairly early on. The writers usually have to be finished by the time actual development begins, and you kind of need dialogue done to start scripting and building scenes, which, if I were to hazard a guess, would, and should, be the most time consuming and take the most resources compared to other aspects.
     
    And yep. ;)

    Pre-LC as English dude during the Reaper invasion would be a fucking sick setup for ME3 - maybe have the Reapers black out Earth comms and he has to get the SOS out somehow.  I want the Millennium Dome to turn into a Reaper (which is why it cost so much and looks so ridiculous).

    Not surprised there's more DLC coming. They need something to actually sell to the people buying the PS3 version that includes the other stuff.

    I'm guessing it's going to be the DLC that "bridges the gap" between the two games somehow. Which is probably way better than the multimedia tie-in nonsense that is the alternative to just having it in game. (It's like how Lair of the Shadow Broker is built upon that tie-in comic that nobody read)
     
    As long as it's not going to be a string of hammerhead segments and some shooting like Overlord, I will purchase it, even though Bioware is thoroughly incapable of understanding the content to dollar ratio for expanded content.

    About the Cerberus Daily New, does it seem feasible that the old updates could just be replayed through on the PS3 version over this coming year? 
    I'm not really sure what they are but it sounds like they set up more back story and details about the game's universe. I'd like to see a few while I'm playing.

    It's feasible that they might pick and choose a few to repeat, I suppose. I personally would've thought they'd go on until the release of ME3, with the PS3 version coming out so soon too, but they did just right a years worth of paragraphs and content for it.
     
    I'm not sure. I'd honestly just suggest that anyone really interested it just went back to a archive at this point. They're interesting little tidbits that reveal a little bit about the galaxy.

    Good to know there more stuff for sure, but disappointed there's only one big DLC left.  I have a feeling that it's gonna come out around the time of the PS3 release.

    @solidwolf52: I wouldn't make that assumption. All they say is that they will be leading up to one with the Daily News. I would not be surprised it there were another one or two that, while not getting that treatment, would be akin to maybe Overlord. The one mentioned seems to be the next big Shadow Broker-esque DLC.
