Depends how they do it for me. If it's multiplayer combat between characters or something sure, but I don't want ti to affect the story at all.
Aargh, Bioware please don't tell me you're going the multiplayer route for ME3

So what if it has multi player? Almost every game i have enjoyed had a multi player portion, i just never touched it. You had to choose to partake, if you don't choose to do so, then its as if ME never had multi player.
Of course, with nerd rage, that won't matter....

You never know, we could be lucky and that what will actually happen is that they'll scrap the Star Wars MMO and basically reskin the models in that game with the ones from the ME universe.
If they did that then I'd be pre-ordering now!

I do believe that those who think that ME3 will have Multiplayer have not followed the news. Mass Effect trilogy's your story.
More likely the Multiplayer will be a game taking place after ME3/during the FCW.

Co-Op would be really cool. Console Games nowadays have almost always only single player, which is sad. Playing a game together with friends is really missing.

As long as the campaign story is not affected I don't have a problem with. And it will actually be something good to leave the players with, given that it will be the last of the ME trilogy. (about Shepard).
But my fear is that they will focus so much on this, and not give the ending that we all deserve.

I highly doubt this will affect ME3. The next, and last, part of the Shephard-ME trilogy will be SP-only, as were it's two prequels.
I'm 99% sure the mp/coop whatever feature will be implemented for the next big thing in the Mass Effect universe, just not for ME3. Even timing-wise everything else seems unlikely.

Sorry but I rather keep my "Good Story" RPGs single player than the nonsense of playing with other people who act like idiots.
If Multiplayer does happens to ME3 (and does ruin the single player experience) then I am guaranteeing I'll play a ME2 playthrough to kill shepard off.

Wow, this is spreading around the web like wild fire. Just about every website i know has reported on this
already, and the majority response is the same everywhere, no MP/co-op in ME 3.

Really Bioware??? REALLY????
You just made an incredible follow-up to arguably the greatest sci-fi videogame ever made. You've woven a rich narrative surrounding one man and his crew of compatriots as they try to save the galaxy from a threat so huge and powerful it is almost beyond comprehension. Almost every design desision you've made in both games has revolved around creating a great SINGLE PLAYER experience, and now you're going to screw it all up to please the multiplayer crowd?
Look, far-be-it for me to question your greatness, but if you can't understand why this is a horrible, horrible idea, then you are either a)drunk with success and think you can do no wrong, or
stupid.
I could list the thousands of ways that implementing multiplayer ANYTHING into Mass Effect would break the game entirely or at least cheapen the experience, but right now I'm reeling from the blatant "ME TOO" mentality bioware seems to have taken of late.
You guys are one of the best developers on THE PLANET. You've got your own thing. You do it well. Quit looking at what other developers are doing and thinking you need to be like 'one of the cool kids' and jump on their bandwagons. If people want multiplayer, there are hundreds of flavors to choose from. Mass Effect doesn't need to be one of them. Christ on a crutch, you'd think after creating Mass Effect, Dragon Age, then Mass Effect 2 and watching them sell like the latest apple iThing you guys would have some modicum of self-confidence in your own game mechanics and your own design directions. They've gotten you this far, why suddenly decide you have to be like everyone else now?
I need an aspirin.......

I like co-op games but honestly I don't feel it fits this trilogy or RPG games in general. If Bioware wants to design a game from the ground up with co-op or multiplayer in mind, like a ME shooter or something, then I'm all for it, but I am totally against it being a part of the Shepard arc.

I hope everyone knows that they put this job listing up to see the response they will get when they decide to add multiplayer in the future. So I'm going to guess that if lots of fans get mad about it they will stop hiring people for multiplayer. I am against multiplayer in mass effect 3 just to clarify my opinion.

I don't care how big of a studio you are, resources and time for development cycles are still finite quantities, and implementing multiplayer would necessarily reduce the resources and time alloted to crafting the single player game.
Also, one of the biggest problems with implementing multiplayer systems is ensuring that they don't 'break' the single player mechanics, or vice-versa. What once only had to function for one player now has to function equally well for two (or more). Depending on how many people we're talking about here, that's a huge drain on resources, texture reductions will be necessary, not to mention the addition of many, many more hours of QA that will be required to iron out all the bugs.
Let's also consider how multiplayer would affect the game mechanics themselves. In ME and ME2 you pause the action whenever you change weapons, read your codex, pull up biotic abilities, etc. etc. Will they make the other player(s) just sit there while you're doing this? That won't be much fun. Then there's the more likely and far worse possibility that they will just revamp the whole system.
I could go on and on, but I hope you're starting to see my point here.

I'd play a split screen version of Oblivion on a Wii with Mario Karts instead of horses and Pong paddles instead of swords, in top-down mode, before I devoted any time to what was left of ME after multiplayer was added in. Especially after I saw what happened to COD single player once they Atari'd the new version.
Blech, blah...no

I think its simple:
ME3: Single Player only
ME Spin-off: MP/Co-op
There is no reason ME3 should be anything but SP.
But, i could definitely see a ME spin off game being MP or Co-op. i mean you already play "Co-op" in ME with a squad of 3 characters, so its not a stretch to play with co-op human characters. And they could even go full blown MP, and have say Alliance vs Cerberus vs Geth vs Blue Suns vs Eclipse etc.
But yeah...KEEP MP OUT OF ME3 for the love of all that is sacred.

I'm I one of the few (on the pages that I have read) who has come to the conclusion that multiplayer could mean co-op or a co-op analog? Think about ME isn't a game series that could be given a "CoD multiplayer" ( by CoD MP i mean like 12-16 people ruuning around killing each other) so if you ask me the most logical conclusion is that in this instance multiplayer means co-op or a co-op analog ( like CoD MW2's Spec Ops). You people need to think through what your saying befor you post, MULTIPLAYER can be more than one thing! What would you people think if was co-op not MP? would you still buy ME3?
But in the end dont we all <3 BioWare? no matter what they decide to do with their games?

i have been wanting this for a while now, every body said it was a dumb idea and that the game single player would get dumb down, but i think that people underestimate Bioware, i believe bioware can do a great job on both, i hope that they are not doing a deathmatch type MP because that would suck, but co-op MP like gear's horde mode would be great, some classes powers would have to be adjusted because any power that slows time down wouldn't work, i am sorry but i really want something to do now because i have beaten the game about 15 times with all the classes, i just want something to do now, i also think that having real players with you would be so much better than having the AI with you.

We all
BioWare, unfortunately BW is now owned by EA, and EA is all about the $$$And i doubt that it is intended for Co-op only since the job listing mentions MP specifically. If this turns out to be something along the lines of EA telling BW to add MP in ME3 to increase sales, then its going to ****** alot of people off. If it is something that has nothing to do with ME3, then it wont be so bad.

If multiplayer (i.e. Co-op) infiltrates its way into the main story in Mass Effect 3, I'm done with Bioware.

It would be good if there was a MP , but it incorparated all the conversation systems as mass effect 1 & 2 , and you could go on missions and role play as different people or classes or race even !

As long as they keep it separate from the SP then i have no problem with it if they start trying to shoehorn co-op into the single player there will have to be compromises as i doubt 30 min dialog sequences would work to well in co-op and despite what some of the D&D "this game is a shooter" people say that's still a very big part of ME

I would hope most people know that the game won't require mplay to finish the story. I think what people are scared of is that nothing is for free. They see other games go the multiplayer route, and the single player stories get smaller and smaller. What is the average triple A title shooter today, maybe 7 hours of missions for 60 or 70 bucks? If you complain about the short story, people just pile on and say its all about mplay!!!
The know that multi player will cost time and money. If mplay is given a large focus, other things will suffer. People play these games for the stories. They are defending their territory, they don't want one iota of the single player game to be skimped on, in favor of a mplay option they never plan to use.
That said, in a dream world where nothing in the single player game was affected, I have no problem with a co-op game where a friend can take over a squadmate. I don't even have a problem with someones Shepard being classified or renamed as a special recruit for co op games, so that a couple people can both play their own favorite custom character together.
Anyways, I am hoping this is a spin off, something entirely new and unreleated to ME3. I don't really care to have another multiplayer shooter on the market, but I still wouldn't mind them showing a willingness to support the ME franchise with other projects.

If ME 3 has any form of multiplayer, the singleplayer campaign is going to suffer. I could easily see this going the way of fable 2 multiplayer, which sucked alot. I don't want ME 3 to be like that. However, these are the same people who also said that everyone just absolutely LOVED the planet mining, so this kinda doesn't suprise me.
