Hopefully people can take an anti-anxiety pill after reading this. Thanks for the info Chris! This is going to be a long 21 weeks.

Thank you for the quick action Bioware, and I think that was necessary. Really.  I think there was need now for clarity, for clarification, because frankly, the confusion was there and it became too much, even for me who support this kind of content. Now whether we like it or not, we know where we go, ended the rumors and blurry, unspoken words, etc. And maybe it will reassure some people, I hope.

For the " killer feature ", this seems very promising, ( even awesome ) and I'm very happy. I hope many will relativize the following months.

So using the co-op affect the single-player campaign? Interesting. I really hope that you don't need to use it to get the "best ending", though :<

This sounds pretty interesting, completely optional and, from what I am reading, had no effect on resources meant for the core game. Perfect.

Join your friends in the all-out galactic war to take Earth back. The universe of Mass Effect expands with the addition of new co-op multiplayer missions, playable over Xbox Live, PSN and PC internet. Players can choose from a variety of classes and races, form an elite Special Forces squad, and combine their weapons, powers and abilities to devastating effect as they fight together to liberate key territories from enemy control. Success in multi-player will have a direct impact on the outcome of the single player campaign, giving players an alternative method of achieving ultimate victory against the greatest threat mankind – and the entire galaxy – has ever faced.


The second part does nothing to assuage my worries about the first part. Question, is the "Galaxy at War" feature some kind of prototype for a future MMO? You can assume it's rethorical, if it pleases you.:devil:

I have to admit, I'm seriously overjoyed by this.

I might even pre-order two copies of ME3. One for me, and one for a friend.

Awesome!

EDIT: Wait, what?


"Success in multi-player will have a direct impact on the outcome of the single player campaign, giving players an alternative method of achieving ultimate victory against the greatest threat mankind – and the entire galaxy – has ever faced."


"It is important to note that the system is entirely optional and just
another way players can have control over your game experience – it is
still possible to achieve the optimal, complete ending of the game in
Mass Effect 3 through single-player alone."


Yeah, the separation between those two sentences tested my reading comprehension patience.  There will be MANY who don't read another word after the first part and miss the second.

EDIT:  Thanks for the info Chris...now go spend time with your family and whatever food you Canadians eat for your Thanksgiving.

Then don't play it. One of the best things abotu teh 4 player co-op multiplay is that it is optional. If you liek it, great. Play and enjoy it. If you (like me) are a single player game who plays games liek ME3 for the story, don't play the MP and concentrate on the single player experience.

:devil:

Chirs 1 question I think you could answer! Can we play co-op missions locally as well?

"Success in multi-player will have a direct impact on the outcome of the single player campaign"

"it is still possible to achieve the optimal, complete ending of the game in Mass Effect 3 through single-player alone."

Explain... Will there be a single difference in the main game if do not take part in MP, alternative storylines or additional missions or cutscenes inside the single player main story? If so then yes you have screwed over single player for MP in that you do not have access to those things unless play MP.

"We can’t comment on specifics right now, but can confirm that we are planning on having DLC for Mass Effect 3."

Story single player based DLC mostly or co-op map packs mostly?

Is MP based on have to have four friends that have the same game and same system for that game to play? Will it be PUG or LFG based random idiots in team to make up numbers? Or can it be played as single player with AI controlled companions?

Thanks for the info Chris, hopefully it will calm some people down.


I would love to take all the credit, but Jesse Houston adn Nick Clifford worked hard to get this ready once we had the info go public a tad earlier than we thought.

Thanks guys.

So, getting an optimal outcome will be harder if I don't play MP and I don't want to play MP. It is my choice not to play, but doing so will gimp me.

Better be a brilliant SP campaign.

Is there is a way to play this campaign by yourself with AI controlled party members, or is there is a way to play split screen co-op with someone on the same console?

Was all I needed to hear in order to know I shouldn't purchase anything by BioWare from now on. Feck this sh!t.

Did you even bother to read the word alternative in that sentence? No? Fine then go away.
