well obviously they effect each other, the question is if its a negative effect or not. which rarely happens. theres no need to worry too much about it. ME3's single player will be high quality and AAA title worthy, i have no doubts about that. will it have flaws? absolutely. ive been a gamer pretty much my entire life and ive still never seen a perfect game.TheZyzyva wrote...
Just read all 20 pages of this... I think I earned the right to comment on it, yes?
@Clonedzero, You argue that SP and MP developement get seperate budgets and therefore do not effect one another. While I am sure that they do in fact have seperate budgets, to argue that they have no impact on one another is naive. Nothing exists in a vacum, everything has at least a potential impact on everything else. And again, while I'm sure that they recieved additional money for a MP, you can bet that it wasn't a flat addition of "MP money". That's just not how business works. There are diminshing returns on all investments. And for a game that already had a staggering production cost, assuming EA just handed BW enough money to make a fully capable MP function is hopefully naive again. I would almost gurantee you that money would have to be pulled from a SP experience to justify that kind of expenditure. That is just the business model at work. IE: A 3mil SP + a 2mil MP =/= 5mil game, most likely it's going to be less than the sum. Of course the rules are not absolute and I don't presume to "know" just how EA and BW would opperate, but since my personal oppionion on EA is quite low for doing anything other than lining their pockets with money I would assume that this is what they would do.
Also, you cannot "prove" that MP has detracted from SP anywhere, because the product made without the MP does not exist. We will never know what RE5 could have been if the MP wasn't so forced in there. The thought that is frustrating is playing a SP game that I love, seeing the flaws, and wondering if they would have gotten more attention if not for the MP. Even if the flaw was still there without MP, I wouldn't feel the same way about it because the mindset of paying for something that I do not want would not be there. Just the thought that MP detracted from the SP would be enough to lower my statisfaction. THAT is my biggest problem with it.
@everyone else, stop baiting, stop crying, start making articulate arguments.
its not so much "could this area in SP been better if there was no MP" its more of "could this area of SP been better if they didnt spend so much time over-polishing this area of SP".
like with ME1 , could the explorable planets had better more varied terrian if they didnt spend so much time making a clunky inventory and loot system?. in ME2 could the level design been more open and allowed for exploration if they cut some of the N7 side missions?
ME3 will have its own issues, they wont be because of MP, they'll be because every game has issues. its unavoidable.
its just more accurate to blame faults of the SP on the SP team for not working on those areas and spending too much time on others. unless they're understaffed, which they arent. multiplayer has become the scapegoat of singleplayer campaigns.
