I'm sure that most of us have heard the rumours of multi-player hot rod ninjatron action in ME3, to varying levels of excitement, dismay and bitterness. This is not a thread to debate whether there should be MP or not (we have several of those on the front page already, as I live and type) or to talk about how MP kills the single player campaign and caters to the epileptic.

This thread is a WHAT IF sort of scenario; let's assume that multi-player is a foregone conclusion for ME3 and no amount of ****ing will get it taken out. They've crunched the numbers and decided it will be there. Now, let's also stay optimistic and pretend we live in a world where time and money are meaningless and the single player campaign is already finished so there is no possible way the MP element is going to drain time or money from single player game.

To sum up, if ME3 HAS TO HAVE MULTIPLAYER NO MATTER WHAT (and the single player campaign wouldn't suffer at all), what kind would you like to see? What are some ways to introduce optional multi-player elements in a cool fun way that adds to the setting and to the game experience?

ok, i'll bite but why the crazy 5th element pic?

[J0HNL3I]

sort of proper multiplayer were you could fully customize your race and what you look like. also some sort of co-op would be nice

[SalsaDMA]

Co-op is the only way I see it work properly and within the setting of the game.

Multipass?

I do kind of wonder if it would just be a co-op mode where up to two other players could control the squadmates? That makes sense from a certain perspective. But... split-screen, ugh. I'd prefer an over-the-network Shepard v Shepard deathmatch mode, even though it makes absolutely no sense.... it'd be fun, and settle alot of "well my Shepard and his squad could..." debates.

a limited co-op with a buddy taking the role of one of your squad would be cool..but that should be the limit of the multiplayer. I don't want any of the SP to suffer for MP crap in this kind of game.



release a spinoff if you want some kind of MP in ME....



in that regard a class-based team MP like Battlefield/Team Fortress 2/etc would be great for such a SPIN-OFF game.



but again..far as ME3 goes with MP? if it MUST be in there...simple co-op is all it should be..let the buddy take on the role of a squad-mate or something. Nothing else would really fit.

[J0HNL3I]

as long as the multiplayer didnt ruin the story. like on assassin creed brotherhood were its seperate from the story

It needs to be said in a cute voice. With Zaeed as your avatar I can't help getting an image of it being said in his voice.. which, in my opinion, is no wehere near as 'sexy'

[masterp1975]

I'm optimisitc that there will be no multiplayer.



Gotta love Milla, though.

There is a poll at IGN asking whether fans want multiplayer in ME3

20.59% (6,935 votes) Want MP,
79.41% (26,742 votes) Do not want MP. 

Just putting that out there.

Like I said, that's not really what this thread is for. Definitely the general buzz from ME fans on the net is "hellll noooo" and for the record, that includes me too. But like the thread posits, IF they were to do it ANYWAY, what types of multi-player would appease us?

Yeah I honestly don't mean to be a troll, but not only can I not see ME3 having multiplayer, from a gameplay perspective, but there is no way that having multipalyer wouldn't detract from singleplayer. I appreciate your post OP, but I honestly have nothing to say to it.

Well, look at it this way. If, when asked what kind of multi-player would be the least offensive, the players responded "NO MULTI-PLAYER EVER DAMNIT!"... that is feedback Bioware can use, too.

don't get upset.  majority of the people here are too narrow minded, childish, and lack the mental capacity to actually think outside their own wants.

instead of avoiding the thread we get the typical idiotic responses.

so yah..don't sweat it.  It's not their fault they lack the ability to answer your question hypothetically.

[masterp1975]

If I'm not given a choice, and multi player is there. It better have Milla involved, or I will feel violated.

[Bullets McDeath]

It is alright. MP is quite the hot-button topic, for reasons I simultaneously understand but remain baffled by. No name-calling yet so I think we're doing pretty good.



I just mainly see a lot of "screw multi-player in the multi-butt" sentiment going around, and that's good feedback as well, but it just occured to me that if there IS going to multi-player, we might want to let Bioware know what the fans think would be good instances of MP versus crappy ways to implement it.

True true.

I don't care as long as it doesn't take away from the main games quality. Ubisoft managed it with AC: Brotherhood, it's fine. But I only played a MP game twice, so it would be the same with Mass Effect. I think it would be a waste of time and money to tack on MP.
