We'll need to do some matchmaking on the forums! Hopefully it will be some kind of team deathmatch. Then we can finally settle all the Paragon/Renegade arguments in a manly fashion.

Co-op would be even funnier. Imagine Dean The Young following Xilihizra around, second guessing all her decisions. The most useless forum buddy would probably be Smudboy. You'd be returning fire and he'd just be telling you how stupid the whole situation was.

Look at it this way, when all the CoD morons show up cause they see the shiny Multiplayer we'll be cleaning thier clocks score-wise, and that alone will be worth it.


Well that's not remotely offensive or making a huge assumption, is it?

There isn't any reason to suggest that CoD fans who enjoy the Call of Duty franchise will suddently decide to buy ME3. Why would they? They have CoD.

That's true. Also, alot of them don't even know of Mass Effect's existence.

EA fails to understand this, though.

No raging Cheez? Come on. You know you want to.

I would, but then I remembered that the original StarCraft had multiplayer so damn good that it became the state religion of South Korea... and had one of the best single-player campaigns of its time.

And then there's Metroid Prime 2 and Dead Space 2, where the single player (the meat) was still damn tasty, and everyone ignored the sh*t multiplayer.

And let's not forget Portal 2, which was twice as long and just as good as the original with all sorts of cool new mechanics... and a multiplayer mode that was pretty decent.

And, you know, there's stuff like Pokémon that has a cult following for both its single and multi sides.

So really, what's to rage about?  The demo goodies tell us that the gameplay's already improved, and I have enough faith in the writers that the final game will be at least as good as ME2.  And, despite its faults, ME2 is still pretty much my favorite game ever.

The only thing to worry about now is the multiplayer sucking, in which case it can be ignored.

I'm keeping my Pre-Order of the CE. I buy games for the SP experience. The fact BW hasn't disappointed me with a single SPEx doesn't have me worried that the Multiplayer will detract from the SP. Just like Kinect isn't ruining ME3, the MP won't either. I mean c'mon where was the MP component to ME1 and 2? If you don't want to be called a "******-gypsy" by a 15 year old with the voice of a 10 year old and the combat sim skills of a Navy Seal, you can stick with your SP experience.

Meh. If it requires that online pass, I'll just shred it and enjoy the singleplayer, as there won't be a single f*ck given about the multiplayer not even half a year after release.

To all those who say that Bioware can't add multiplayer to  an RPG series that had been exclusively single-player because it doesn't make sense, that it will ruin the singleplayer portion, or that EA is forcing Bioware to sell its soul to attract the COD crowd by including mp, I would like to point out that they'd already done that way before they were bought by EA. Baldur's Gate II had multiplayer, and I hear that game turned out pretty well.

Man, I hope the first Map Pack includes one of those old, ME1 pre-fabricated units.

Having Wrex on the cover got my brain spinning. What if Casey Hudson's true definition behind the words "permanent defeats the nature of war" (or whatever it was, I'm tired) were a hint at a rotating-squadmate-but-only-for-co-op system? I'd be a bit miffed if I could only get Wrex on my side so long as a buddy was controlling him but whatev.

Or maybe temporary squadmates like Thane and Wrex (from what we've heard) can be controlled via multiplayer connections.


God I hope not. I don't care about MP, so long as it doesn't interfere with SP or result in a stunted/shafted SP, which I don't expect to happen. Maybe I'll even get a few hours out of it. Something like that would mean I was missing out on some part of SP (and a big part) if I ignored MP. I'd absolutely hate that. Here's hoping they keep the modes 99% seperate.

They probably do, but I think it's a tad conceited to think the Mass Effect games are so amazing that everyone will want to play them.

Or that a singleplayer game can be good enough on its own.

The idiot who said that multiplayer is the future shouldn't be allowed to work with video games at all.

Has anyone else noticed that the mood from page 22 --> 23, changed from "Total Hate" to "Kind of Annoyed"?

You don't need to look any further than F.E.A.R. 3


You mean a franchise that was already dying? Do you know the history behind FEAR 3? How developers swapped hands and different entire games were made?

Really? FEAR 3? That's your pinnacle example?


I'm already aware of the constant switch with developers, smart-ass. Still doesn't explain why the campaign as a whole still felt half-assed when they wanted to add in all of these extra multiplayer modes that only had a month-long lifespan.

I wouldn't say he's an idiot, considering that a lot of great games have multiplayer.

Like Red Dead Redemption.

Co-op is even worse than random multiplayer. This is no Gears of War.

The Thing is a have a lot of friends of mine I'll tell them about ME and say it is a fun game, but all come up with the same point if it was multiplayer they would play it, but it was a lot bigger on them same friends on DA being Multiplayer they all liked how it looked better, but by all means they want it like one of them MMO RPG games, dont know the names but i think one is call Warcraft of something or something. lol.:ph34r:

Well it sounds like co-op multiplayer based on the (albeit brief) sentence on the cover. While I don't personally play multiplayer I can't say I'm upset over co-op multiplayer... afterall I did enjoy playing Neverwinter Nights and Baldur's Gate 1&2 in co-op multiplayer many many years ago.

So in a way it sort of harkens back to Bioware's roots. Though I don't know anybody who plays Mass Effect personally so I'll be sticking to solo.. and I don't like gaming with strangers. :P

My biggest problem with co-op would be one that I stated earlier, with "who would be who".

Image IPB Bit of an extreme reaction, don't you think? 

Besides, they know that a single player game works successfully on a stand-alone basis, but this isn't just about those who want to play single player. There are other people in the world and those other people want to play MP. It's so selfish to complain about an optional extra that you don't even have to take part in.

I fear I'm just banging my head against a brick wall, though.
