Bioware fan(boy/girl)s are weird. You're happy because someone else will not get a feature that would only marginally affect your enjoyment of the game, if at all? (Apart from that imaginary "zot" thing with a lot of guessing what would/would not happen and bla and so on.)

No weirder than a multiplayer who doesn't want single players able to play.  I was looking forward to being able to play all of old republic as a single player and enjoying the massive world that's available.  I can't, that's the way it goes.  But i can play DA2 and I'll be happy in my single player world.

Thank God. I'm a single-player gamer with no interest in multiplayer. Tacking on meaningless co-op sections dumb down games with great single player experiences (I'm looking at you Bioshock 2). So it's nice to see BioWare sticking to something they do well without trying to spread themselves too thin implementing a mode that offers little to story or a role-playing experience.

Im quite sure that multiplayer of some kind would be GREAT. For example arena style. Heroes (each one controled by one player only) in large arena with several high dragons, cooperating to defeat them? Survival fight with constantly spawning hordes Darkspawn? Last man standing where everyone starts in one corner and has to get out of maze full of nasty things only to fight each other? So many ideas, so much unused potential, so much possibilities you can sell to us! Buy game, like it? Wanna multiplayer? Download it as bonus content and both multiplayer and singleplayer players will be happy. Bioware, make it like Blizzard. That means: dont listen to ppl watering your shoes and whining for release. Take your time, delay the game for a half a year or something, just make it bugless and with multiplayer.

Multi-player feature means another feature the devs need to spend time on. Unless you have some access to magic wands, you cannot make a game that has both a fantastic single player experience and a fantastic multi-player experience. Asking for multi-player and then criticizing those who don't want it because it would detract from the single player is like asking a restaurant to become vegetarian and then criticize people who say that this would cause the restaurant to carry less meat.

I actually dont mind if they implement a limited coop experience, such as the ability to invite friends to control your other party member during battle. This idea would be great if they implement it on mass effect as well.

Now this is GOOD news:wizard:. At least there's no disappointment in that department.

No co-op? Sad

No co-op? Happy

It would really bug me when my team-mates kept pausing the game to issue orders, and make sure they had clicked on the right enemy. The alternative, being forced to play it as an RTS wouldn't work, unless you had a player for each character, on any difficulty level above Easy. I really don't see how co-op could be implemented.

I hope so. Co-op would make this game even more amazing and much more replayable!

Glad to here DA II will be singleplayer, not every game released these days needs a coop/multiplayer mode.

This thread reinforces the age old saying - different strokes for different folks. I come down on both sides.

I like the personal experience of a single player game, that I can play at my own pace. I like how well a story can be told, too, which is harder to in a multiplayer game. As I get older, it's also harder to carve out times that match with other players' times, so I can play a single player game when it is good for me.

On the mutliplayer side, I enjoy the true roleplaying that can only be done when you are interacting with live players (and, in the case of games with a dungeon master, with "live" NPCs as opposed to pre-generated conversations). If you haven't tried a DM'd game, with a small group of players, give it a shot (in NWN, for example). I remember how awestruck I was after my first multiplayer game with a small group, after years of playing games by myself or stuck with MMO's.

I'll go back to my initial observation several posts up. I'd love to see Bioware make a single player game, but have the capability in the engine for mutliplayer. The single player campaign doesn't even need to be mutliplayer, but it would be great if we could use the stuff we make in the toolset in a multiplayer setting.

Realistically, though, that's not going to happen. There won't be enough bang for the buck to tack on the mutliplayer elements (which is probably quite an undertaking), so I'm just going to enjoy the game for what it is (which is, hopefully, an awesome single player RPG).

So was NWN 1 and NWN 2:innocent: ( The main story anyways)

The real question is, can we make our own stories, DM them and share them with friends in real time?  aka NWN style MP?

We can´t argue with haters... they will hate without reason and only think in themselves. That´s why I love co-op... we always work together to COOPERATE. We wouldn´t say: "make a co-op only game to not allow those who play single-player only."

[Jestina]

Multi-player is awful. Go play WOW or something.

Those haters are very lonely people. Interaction with other human beings (even through multiplayer), for them, is a mystery and horror at the same time.

Hmm I was kind of hoping for a co-op experience like the bioware games of old (baldurs gate, Neverwinter Nights) But I'm happy as it is.

This, so many people seem to forget that those games where great single player/multi player rpgs.

I find this slightly hilarious considering Bioware rpgs used to have co-op mulitplayer, and taking it out is something they started doing with Kotor.

Very lonely indeed. I think the same

I played NWN RP servers for years; but I still think DA is best off remaining single player.

The area generation tool on DA:O would have been nightmarish for custom servers to build themselves up (it's far more complex than Aurora).
Multi-players is best off on platforms with entirely custom areas, going through a SP campaign with a load of you isn't as fun as something purpose built for full interplayer RP.

Ya no need for multi player in an RPG such as this.
