'Mass Effect 3' Ending: Patch Updates Hit Before DLC, 'Complete Re-Write Is The Only Acceptable Solution' [VIDEO]

With a brand new DLC package, Mass Effect 3 fans will also be seeing a new patch update to fix the facial import bug. BioWare has announced that the game, which was sparked much controversy due to its ending, will receive the update on PCs today and consoles tomorrow.

The primary fix that this patch addresses involves a glitch that affects the way Commander Shepard's face is imported into Mass Effect 3 from the previous two games. This is particularly important, since much of the story and content in the third game is based on the decisions players make in the first two. The patch will also fix game-crashing bugs and issues with connectivity.

While these adjustments will improve certain aspects of gameplay, what fans really want is a revised ending rather than more material. BioWare has said that they are taking fans concerns into consideration, but it is unclear whether or not the upcoming Resurgence DLC and the Extended Cut addition will include exactly what they are looking for.

The general consensus is one of stiff skepticism; many fans are disappointed that a re-write has not been offered, but are still hopeful that the DLC will provide the closure they feel the current ending is lacking, Krista Hauser, the fan behind RetakeMassEffect.org said to Forbes. There is however a large portion of the community that is less optimistic and feels that a complete re-write is the only acceptable solution.

Mass Effect 3 has officially been released for a little over a month, and the Retake movement has quickly spread across the country. The organization's Facebook page has more than 61,000 Likes, and a real-time map courtesy of HoldTheLine.com shows where the movement's members are located. So far 682 players from around the world have tallied themselves in the map, with the number climbing each second.

To be honest-no matter what happens, Retake has made gaming history, Hauser said. We have changed the precedent of accountability within the gaming industry and things, at least to some degree, will never be the same.
