I feel BSN should always have one of these handy.

I certaintly will be, depending on whether the co-op needs origin or not.

The fact that they need to tell us not to overreact means they know that a GIANT portion of fans didn't want this feature. 


Or they've glanced at the forums at least once.

Blacqout, you're arguing for the sake of argument. Stop.

I should go.

In all seriousness, this sounds ****ing awesome (excuse my language).

I'm looking forward to this game more and more everyday. And it was unbearable before...

Right. English isn't my first langauge, but what the offical Mass Effect twitter page appeard to say was that "ME3 will have a multiplayer option" and that they'll "have more details in the coming days". 

After reading that tweet, it left me with little doubt that ME3 would feature multiplayer in some capacity, but it did not confirm the claim made in the thread's title: that co-op multiplayer missions had been officially confirmed. 

It just stated that the game would feature multiplayer in some capacity. I was after clarification on the co-op mission aspect of the statement, as both the links in the OP were light on details.


Considering that it seems that another tweet confirmed co-op multiplayer then I'd say it will be co op.

I would guess that at least a bit of this is a tester to see how multi play is received and it may be a bigger part of future ME games.

You do understand what "The official Mass Effect twitter page" means right? If they say it's true, it's true.


I'm pretty sure that even if God would come down to confirm this some would doubt.


God: And I say unto thee that "The Official Mass Effect Twitter Page" is the official Mass Effect twitter page, officially.

X: Oh, really? What are you, omniscient or something?

God: Well, now that you mention it...:innocent:

Just look at this reaction, now imagine the reaction if it turns out ME3 requires Origin.

Nobody will be spared.

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving everyone. I am at my inlays having dinner, so ma typing this on an iPhone. Excuse the larger than usual amounts of spelling errors.

As mentioned by Casey on Twitter, we are confirming that there will be 4 player Co-op multiplayer missions for Mass Effect 3. We will have more details on this feature on Wednesday when the announcement was supposed to be made.

I know the immediate reaction by some is to panic and think of how this will ruin the Mass Effect series or whatever. PLEASE do not over react or assume the worst until you actually hear details on this feature and how it will work. I will try to get approval to give you details so you can make up your minds with the correct details. Marketing's plan was to announce on Wednesday, but I'll see if I can speed this up.

So, until you learn the details, I urge people to have cautious optimism or wary negativity until you get the real details. Thanks everyone. Stay tuned.


First off, Happy Turkey Day to you, Chris, and the other employees at Bioware.  Now to business...

I have an issue with the way that this whole multiplayer has been handled.  There should have had been some rumours or some information in early development to prepare the consumer base.  I was expecting to have a single player experience with full resources devoted to that style of play.  By introducing the multiplayer you have violated a gamer taboo of mixing different game elements that, traditionally, have been kept seperate.  By trying to play this as a good thing for the game will not alleviate the anger, rage, and suspicions of the consumer base who value the tradition the ME franchise has established as a single player game experience.

Moreover I have to say that I am surprised that no one at Bioware considered - in Udina's words - "Do the words political ****-storm mean anything to you?"  Bioware drops a bomb shell, a really big one, and expects that everybody will be cool with it - no information and a lot of sugar fueled rage to type out.  Some action is going to be needed sooner rather than later unless you have to have a repeat of the Bioware Bazaar rage campaign that lasted days until the apology.  Casey Hudson is not just toying with a new game mechanic, he's toying with the majority of the players' feelings and emotions that they have already invested into the first two games by adding something that most of us weren't expecting, nor wanting.

Yes. A link to this second tweet was helpfully provided by some guy, after i asked where the co-op missions had been confirmed. 

It was not present in the opening post, hence my confusion.

Gotta love Adblock.  Don't have to sit through a 30 second commercial to watch a 90 second video.

Hell yeah. Adblock is one of the best things ever came on the internet.

And I agree with the IGN guys. Both of them. ME never had any needs for multiplayer, but I still trust them although I'm skeptical about it. Uncharted worlds and planet scanner don't build trust.

I hope they add some rp elements to the missions, could use Old Republic persuasion system.

You can debate the legitimacy of complaints about multiplayer.

All about the money. Epic fail, this will be as much of a bomb as DS2 multi.

I'm guessing probably might need EA pass to play mulitplayer on consoles and Origin for PC. (Just a guess though but seems sort of thing EA would force upon Bioware even if by some miracle Bioware didn't wish to do it anyways. Just feels like an "EA thing" to do.)

Let's go easy on Bioware a bit. Think it through. If the SP campaign is not up to par, then SP gamers will blame the multiplayer part of the game and thus Bioware for including it in the first place. If the multiplayer is not up to par, then MP gamers will blame Bioware for making such a rush job out of it. Odds are either one or both things will happen.:blush:
