Maybe they're making a multiplayer DLC package?

[TheCrakFox]

I'm not totally against it as it's detailed in that article.

So long as you're playing as new characters, it would be nice to see the war from different angles. Give the game an even greater scope.

So I ask again, where does it say that there will be no MP in Mass Effect 3 ?  At best all that says is that they have nothing to announce yet.

There's really no need for multiplayer, since Mass Effect became what it is solely on singleplayer. I really hope those morons at EA can understand it.

EA is one of those companies who think if a single feature will earn them < 100 more sold copies of their games, then it's automatically worth it--regardless of any potential side-effects. They're completely fascinated with the COD and GOW fans and will do anything to gain their popularity. And that's exactly why I'm almost certain ME3 will have some sort of MP plugged into it. I just hope it's in its own disk.

I really hope bio-ware answers the question on the topic sooner or later.

As always, I call bollocks on it, and refer to simple logic. How will they implement the following powers in multiplayer?
Adrenaline Rush (Time Dilation)
Heavy Charge (Time Dilation)
Tactical Cloak (Invisible)
Stasis
Singularity

They would have to nerf those powers to avoid nerdrage from spilling over onto the forums.

The rumout is that it's PVE....via horde mode.
Those power will work fine.

Be it confirmed or not (I would prefer to keep myself out of this "it's confirmed already!" argument), IF there is multiplayer, I really hope its more along the lines of co-op missions (Sort of like Army of Two online co-op campaign) opposed to PvP (Halo, CoD, etc).

Have many different missions, such as escort civilians, search and destroy, assassination, and hold the line, set on many different planets. The players need to cooperate and work together to complete the mission. To implement classes, each player has one of each class that they can upgrade and customize differently. Not sure how choosing abilities would work, maybe have 3 so they can be mapped. For time slowing abilities, just give the whole team a time dilation, and for squad ammo powers, maybe have the player set down a box or something so that when other players hold a button while near the box they gain that ammo ability.

After completing the mission, they can then be rewarded with exp, money, and resources to invest in leveling up in order to upgrade skills, purchasing armor, and research projects to boost their powers, and since it would be co-op, no need to worry about players being "stronger" than other players.

If it were to work in ME3, I think they would have to do something along the lines of "Humans are doing so much for the galaxy! Make lots of human spectres and send them on missions!"

That's the ideal situation for me, at least. However, i would have to agree that the campaign will first have to be well polished and near perfect before they think of adding any MP.

Mass Effect 3 got too much money pumped in to be mediocre game.


Look at Medal of Honor 2010.
It sold less then ME2.

[Platform626]

 This is the only multiplayer I will accept.

[BloodyTalon]

Course a co-op mode could be a player taking on a roll of one of he squad members to such has the option for a human to co-op has tali instead of an ai also,

No, they wont, especially the time dilation. Do you honestly expect the other players to accept their game slowing down because the soldier on their team hit AR, or charge? Time dilation affects everything but the user of that power.
The only way around it would be to remove all forms of time dilation powers to begin with, or make it so that Time Dilation affects everyone. If it affects everynoe, then that could lead to problems with how the squadmates react under super speed.
Have only been able to find 1 screenie of Sheps powers menu, and cant see AR listed, butthere are a few more tabs that it could be listed under in that shot.

Meh, I think those are the same people who spoke out about the rumour that Garrus is going to die in ME3.
I'm not buying it.

But just in case, I'm keeping the button close.

Thank you. It doesn't for me look like Bioware has confirmed it, more like the writer of article did wrote it. Unless Bioware sayed it behind the article quotes.

Bioware seem to say more like they are interested about multiplaying, but they haven't figured how to do that with ME3, so they are more looking multiplayer in they future products. I don't see it as yes or no.

I asked the hole text, because it was lacking the connection what they where talking as what is was all about.

A rumor that it will have co-op, yes.

[BloodyTalon]

Does bioware have many different development teams?

Cause these rumors have been around since 2010 it seems, wondering if they oculd be working on another project has well and if the media is getting it confuse.d

That is exactly what almost everyone in this thread has been saying--it's not confirmed, but not denied either. You've got a real problem of reading what you want to believe into the words of others.

The problem is that most of those fans problably don't give a crap about Mass Effect. EA, just for one time's sake. Use your brain and not your ass when it comes to decisions like this.

People would be tired of that half-assed multiplayer after a week. And if they seriously think that a multiplayer in ME3 can compete with COD or GOW, they are delusional idiots.

It's like saying that the multiplayer in Red Faction Armageddon can compete with Battlefield.

I just don't want a 35 hour singleplayer game to change to a 10 hour singleplayer game just because of multiplayer.

If EA want that, then it will be that. 

I hope to God they just **** off and let BioWare do what they are good at.

I have no problem with backing what I say up.  However like I said I do find it curious that you would use someone paraphrasing what Casey Hudson said as absolute definite proof but you asked me to paste the entire thing.

I don't want MP in ME 3 any more than the next Mass Effect fan.  If there was a statement from Bioware saying MP will not be in ME 3 I would be using it.  But there is NO definite statement from anyone working for Bioware about whether ME 3 will have MP in it.  At best all we get is "oh we have nothing to announce yet" that is quite a different statement to "there is no MP in ME 3".

Now Bioware could end this speculation today if they wanted.  All we need is a Bioware employee to come in here and say "there will be no MP in ME 3 end of discussion".  But you won't get that, you will get Javier coming in here (someone that does not work for Bioware and is an ordinary user like you and me) saying "Mass Effect 3 is a single player game".

I love Dead Space, I liked Dead Space 2, Was there any reason to have multiplayer in Dead Space 2, nope, I would much rather have them concentrate on bigger missions and cool DLC. There probably will be a multiplayer, it's gonna really suck if they don't get it just right though.
