Awesome show! I think it should be online by now, if anyone missed it. I'm not familiar with the guy playing Vega, but his voice fit the character and he plays Mass Effect, so that's a very good sign.

I'm looking forward to multiplayer as well. Drell Sentinal here I come. Saren, you want to join forces? And what did they say about TIM? You have me intrigued now!

Also, Saren. Purple. I want Thane to be painted PURPLE!!!! =]

And if not entirely purple, make it look like he's wearing purple drag-queen style make-up. (Better not tell Saren that their paints are water-soluable, though. He'd likely go for an oil-based paint otherwise).

If you mean join forces after I get a gaming PC, which will not be anytime soon... then, of course! Posted Image But my Xbox is not connected online, so I won't be in the multiplayer right when the game comes out. More like several months, if I'm lucky.

Saren: Purple? You got it. ;) *loads purple paint into the sparkle shooter and fires it at Thane*
Thane: *completely purple* Did you have to use a weapon for this?
Saren: Well, I took all the ammo out, so it just shot paint... at a very high impact.
Natalie: *gasps* Thane! You new paint matches my eyes! <3
Thane: At least some good came from this. How long will I be purple?
Saren: As long as I'm still golden...
MainShep: ...and matches my eyes. :D
Carson: See? It all worked out for everyone.
Thane: Says the man who hasn't had paint thrown or fired at him.
Saren: Quick, what color eyes does his girlfriend have?
Natalie: Hey, where did he go?
*shuttle flies by the Normandy's window*

Edit: Top of the page? Let's see what I can find on Google...

Thane's not so much corrupted as just learning how to deal with Carson. This is what Saren and TIM do if he's getting too crazy or destructive - distract him with something else.


I see, when in Rome...Smart tactic. I was just about to write "PURPLE!" But I see Myth beat me to it by about 10 hours. xD

I can't play multiplayer until I get a better internet connection, but I'm definitely playing as an Asari Sentinel once I do.(Sentinels FTW! :D

Speaking of Asari, those husks are scary. :blink:

ME 3 has multiplayer? I must have been under a rock. Don't much appreciate the idea either (even if you can play as drell) Just hope the single player hasn't been punished to make the multiplayer part good. >.>

I hope not. I'm still a little worried about this game.

If I get to play as Thane in multiplayer, 2012 can happen and I won't be pissed.

Oh wait no. My baby's only gonna be 9 months old then.

Still...

I'm not sure. Not all drell have the same forehead marking as Thane, but that one did. Feron and Kolyat don't. That move was cool though, leap, biotic ground punch, throws all nearby enemies off their feet. Reminded me of Jak and Daxter...

GASP! Is that what they did to all ME2 squadmates? Make 'em multiplayer charries?!

...not sure if serious....

I thought that was a very cool move. At this point I have no idea what they have done with the ME2 squadmates.

What I'm most concerned about ME3's multiplayer, despite having it sound pretty cool and enjoyable, is how you start it up. I was also told that it would have an effect on the single-player part. If it requires a PSN connection, I'm stumped.

Yeah, I'll be stuffed too if it does, since I only have one phone line and it's currently hooked up to my lappy. So I'm either going to be here, or on the PSN.

I heard about the connection to the single player campaign. I know that if you fully level out the character it becomes part of the Galaxy at War war resources in the sp campaign. Any other connection I don't know about.

PS I don't think that that was a spoiler since it's been in every magazine I've read in the last couple of months, but I greyed it out just in case. :innocent:

Wow, this place has died. ^^ *looks around for Thane pics* ...How about I bring back the priiize Thane, yes?
I missed him.:P

MP in a nutshell for those who are worried:
  • Multiplayer will only have an effect on the sp campaign if you want it to. 
  • You'll have your own original character, if you fully level him/her up, (s)he'll then be usable as a war asset. 
  • Bioware as stated that you don't need said asset to achieve the "Optimal" ending, it only makes things easier for those of us that aren't completionists. 
  • If there are other connections, they haven't said a word of them yet. 
I'm also curious to see if it'll require your console to be connected to the internet. The last few games I've played that had multiplayer didn't require access to the PSN for the SP campaign, I don't see why ME3 would be any different.

I wonder if we will be able to play a female Turian in multiplayer. Or a female Drell. Thats would be sweet. That way for any playthroughs I don't romance Thane I can make him a Badass Drell to eventually fall for.

Eww, gods no, not Team Vega.

I mean... we don't really know anything about him! So it's so easy to pick on him for the way he looks like a moose on steroids... and the fact that he looks like he was made to appeal to people who play other games where they control moose on steroids...

Anyone else hoping we'll get a lot more romantic dialogue in ME3? Because after the "I have feelings for you" conversation with Thane, there's that one circular "how are you feeling" conversation with two endings (one of which being the desert proposition) and then the romance scene.

Jack, Miranda, Tali, Garrus and Jacob all get more conversations and more things to talk about than Thane, and Thane as a member of a whole different species should have had a lot more to say!

Oh, my own biased opinion. Vega looks like he was ripped straight from Gears of War. Did I mention it was my very superficial, biased opinion?

It's all aesthetic but the art stye of Gears of War bothers me for itself and its implications.

But back to lovely Thane....

I reaaalllly don't like the look of Vega, partly because facially he looks a bit like an unpleasant ex of mine and also because in general I don't like the 'moose on steroids' look.

...I also kind of grudge new characters because I'm not invested in them and fear that those characters I am invested in (esp Thane) are getting sidelined. I don't want my Shep being forced into some mentor role with that lump.

His voice actor seemed articulate and seemed excited- as a fan of the series, it must be an incredible opportunity for him. But so far as Vega as a character goes, it's really hard to like a new character when there are so many other established ones that I want to see back.

Isn't that a bit of the purpose of a series? Following a certain set of characters throughout the story? Stand-alone games don't have that luxury. It certainly doesn't help that we've been told straight out that he's a fill in for new players, new people to the Mass Effect universe. I'm pretty sure we got through the other games without a new person spouting information for the benefit of those who came later...

From what I've read about the multiplayer, you do need to be online. This was really disappointing to me. I was all ready to buy a second Xbox controller and teach someone how to play Mass Effect. D:

About Vega, I think he's going to be a cool character. Probably not one of my favorites, but I'll enjoy having him on the team.

From what I've seen Vega isn't appealing to me either. I don't mind the GoW look - but in GoW. I loved that series, but it's a different realm from ME.

And I'm doing another PT, and saved my game this time to hear all Thane's lines about how it's possible to love more than one in a lifetime, and that he would carry Shep in his heart. I immediately re-loaded and romanced the man properly! Gah, so sweet!!

Sorry I haven't caught up on this thread for a while! I have had a new gaming rig being set up this week, all in preparation for ME3 of course! ;) Love the picture above, and happy belated 200th page!

It seems that this close to the release date, whatever plans they have for Thane are pretty much set in stone for him, I am very excited! I wonder if there will be any sort of competition between Thane and Vega, it seems Vega will be an LI in one way or another. We already know there will be a confrontation with Kaidan depending on whether or not you romanced him...

So then ladies, when ME3 comes out, we all gonna put our playthroughs and romances with Thane all down here? Say the dialogues they had, options picked, possible missions etc... :)

Heey, what's with the moose hate? Mooses are cute. Kinda. ^_^

Yeah, Vega's just there so new players have someone to relate to/ask the stupid questions. (Though Shepard is already a master at the latter.) I don't mind him personally, he seems fun. Though I would airlock him in a second if it meant getting Thane back. 

How old is Vega, anyway?

You mean you had hoped for local multiplayer? That would have been awesome...I get the feeling the good ol' split-screen days are over. It saddens me.:crying:
