How very interesting. Playing with friends sounds like a good thing. :)

EDIT: I want to fix Shep's face.

"All you krogans look alike."  No but seriously, is that Wrex?


Maybe? Sorry, I don't think we know for sure...but it does look like him, except for the blue wash on the page.

I don't know about you, but they aren't getting my money. The fact they kept the multiplayer hidden for 4 months is because they are greedy and want MY money too even though they don't deserve it.


OK, where are you getting this "hidden for 4 months" thing?  Because you think they should have announced it at E3?  How do you know they haven't been hiding it for even longer?

Why should we take Bioware at their word? They say there would not be multiplayer, but now there is. So why take anything else they say seriously?

I really meant "at least 4 months". If it's longer, it's worse. They should announce it as soon as they started doing it. They didn't because they want to fish for more pre-orders.

You'd be daft to cancel your preorder, though I am now cautious over how the single player will play out. Do we need a gold account to get the "full" ME3 experience? How will powers work? I doubt these get answered tomorrow.

This MP news is not good, with the addition of kinect this game is beginning to look a farce. I will reserve judgement until release day, however, I am less excited for this game now. Bioware please prove me wrong and show this isn't just tacked on for the benefit of EA.

I am kinda skeptic about this. I will, however, give bioware a chance and see how it goes. Unless we have to pay extra for the multi-op, in which case I will never touch it. (I already have a favorite MMO, thank you!)

Yep. You can't play online last time I checked on XBL unless paying a subscription.

Good job Bioware. You just made a perfect excuse for people to hammer on singleplayer if they don't like it. If reviews are going to blame anything about singleplayer now the adding of the "multiplayer feature" will most likely be first thing they comment on for reasons why.


Ah nevermind, everybody makes mistakes Posted Image

I will post this again since some of you can't get it through your thick skulls. The only way they would be able to implement co-op/multiplayer at all is if they totally revamped the classes. As of now with the current combat system it is impossible. You would have to totally revamp the Soldier and Vanguard class since their signature abilities just would not translate the way they are now. Not to mention they would have to throw out the pause feature when you are choosing abilities from the wheel. The dialogue choices would have to be revamped for co-op as well which doesn't make any sense if this a story about the adventure(s) of Commander Shepard not anyone else. This particular game just doesn't scream multiplayer/co-op at all.

The new feature has already been confirmed as not being multiplayer via twitter. I can give you the link to the other mutliplayer thread speculation thread that you seem to spam this thread off of. Please, stop making these threads! I am damn sure there is not going to be multiplayer any time soon. As I posted in many other threads like this they would have to totally revamp the combat system and multiple classes for this idea to even work. (Not going to retype everything since this is getting really old) Also you are basing your multiplayer assumptions on a magazine that has lied/thrown out misinformation before.

So this is what ME3 was delayed for? Not additional QA? Not bugtesting? Not balancing?
Thank you, Bioware. You made my day.

That either means:

A) The SP campaign was pretty much done and thus is unaffected by the delay for MP
B) The SP campaign was pretty uch done but the delay allowed some extra time for polish, seeing as Edmonton likely aren't making this feature, and even if they are not every staff member will be working on it.

So what's the problem?

The... I guess I'll call it pessimism (instead of blindly labeling it ignorance) in this thread truly depresses me. I cannot fathom why the inclusion of a CO-OP multiplayer mode somehow ruins the game. Co-op modes in games are quite possibly my favorites and I'm very excited to see one implemented in my favorite game universe.


A few months ago bioware was specifically asked if there was going to be multiplayer.  They responded by saying that no, ME3 is a singleplayer RPG. 

Know you know why people are so upset.

And of course, if they can lie about multiplayer, they can lie about the game being good. And the same people who lied before, are now saying how great the game is. See how the loss of trust changes things?


Nobody "lied"

 This is what I don't understand:

Most of today's companies would do anything for profit and money.

So, if we look at this from a financial perspective:

There are social group A and social group B.

Social group A wants Mass Effect 3 without multiplayer.

Social group B wants Mass Effect 3 with multiplayer.

BioWare has two options:

1) Mass Effect 3 gets multiplayer, making the social group B satisfied and pissing off s. g. A (therefore, they get the money from B, but lose some of the money from A, which means: total amount of money = B + n% of A)

2) Mass Effect 3 doesn't get multiplayer, A is satisfied, but B will buy the game because, let's face it, with or without the MP, it's Mass Effect 3. THEN, BioWare makes a Mass Effect MMORPG (or any other multiplayer game), and gets money once again from B. Thus, they get money from B two times. (total amount of money = B + A + B = 2B + A)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that BioWare would get more money from the second option, i. e. if they actually made two games.:)

Did anyone else laugh as soon as they heard there was going to be multiplayer and immediately thought of BSN.

I literally lol'ed thinking of BSN [soiling] their britches.

I, personally, couldn't care either way. If there's multiplayer I'm sure it'll be fine. I don't understand the issue, but w/e.

:ph34r:[No swearing, please.]:ph34r:



Hey, thanks for reminding us yet again that some people take pleasure in other people's distress and concern. 

Oh well.

The fact that it's separate coop missions alleviates my main fear. Only things I worry about now is combat wheels(for your powers) and how many achievements this will take up. I guess that achievements for this is better than achievements for each choice you could make in the quarian/geth conflict though.

Indeed. You'd have to log into whichever account you pre-ordered from and cancel it.

Sure, may not be against anybody else directly, but it gives you an advantage against the average ME2 gamer.



This sentence doesn't make any sence. Modding in Singleplayer cannot give you an advantage against anyone.

The games don't even feature high scores, where this could be considered cheating.

The problem with people claiming it will take away from the length of the game is that any fault they see in the game they will automatically assume its mp fault. No matter what. It probably wouldn't be the fault of MP since the game was basically a finished almost a year ago.

And how do we know that for sure? Because they said so? Because Bioware doesn't lie?

You can't see how it gives an advantage? Come on, for one it makes a difficulty like insanity mode much easier.

"Yeah, I got ME2's achievement for insanity. Doesn't matter that I had unlimited health and ammo, though."

See where I'm going?

This thread is a joke.
Honestly, how can you be dissappointed about a feature you do not yet know any details about.
I honestly doubt the single player campaign will suffer from this and all those who claim otherwise obviously do not trust BioWare's decisions until they are totally blown away by the usually awesomeness of how thinks are implemented around here.
I am glad to hear about some MP feature and hope it'll be a simple co-op story mode, but I am sure, what ever Bioware thought about will be great. So I'll stay out of MP discussions until I get to experience first hand.
Might I remind you that MP for games like Uncharted and Metal Gear Solid turned out great, eventhough they did not have MP in their first games, either. I know they are not made by Bioware but that just further strenghtenes my believe that Bioware will be able to offer a great MP experience as one of my favorite studios.
