I got dibs on human Adept! anyone on PS3 message me for what race and class you'll be (just try to have an individual race, we don't want 3 vanguards or 2 salarians all in 1 group)

P.S. Someone ask them if race affects your class (for example, Turians can be only be eother engineers, Infilrators and Soldiers and Asari can only be Vanguards, Sentinels and Adepts?)

Did you skip that?

This also applies to Doug4130 Your making assumptions. Based of limited PR speak that contain no actual details.

http://social.biowar...1789/75#8486901

Before make assumptions we need the details.

That comment is also a double edge sword. You also don't fully know the full details of the mode as well as others, it's clear that they are jumping to conclusions.

And it always going to be limited pr speak, it does not mean it's not ture. Are you saying because of this mode, you have to play it to get the best ending and their is no other way to get it. If so then you are jump to conclusions.

The point is  you can't say someone is wrong when they never answered what impact will actually have. It has nothing to do with the one ending they did mention while at same time not mention anything about the real actual impact on story and aspects of the main game outside of that one of many final cinematics of which they said it will have an impact.

I like that it is optional, developed by a secondary team so the main guys could stay focused on Shepard's story and that it is co-op. I am not a multi-player type but found I do like co-op (playing with people that I know).

The idea of playing in the ME universe with fellow mass effect fans that I've met on the BSN will be fun!

And I can die play as any species? Sweet!

Christ, why not just ****ing wait until Shepard's story was over?

Waah! 

Because it's not up to you. It's their game, and they can do what they want with it. No one's holding a gun to your head to make you buy it or play it. You could just skip this last chapter, if all this optional content is breaking your immersion or whatever.

It's all corporate double speak. How can multiplayer have a "direct impact" (Chris Priestly's words) on the single player campaign yet still not be required? The DLC does not even follow that logic. You can play Mass Effect 1 & 2 completely DLC free and you would not know the difference. How can a multiplayer mode that has a "direct impact" on the single player game be optional?  It's the same as saying the addon character and mission from the collector's edition of Mass Effect 3 has a direct impact on the plot but is not necessary; either it does or it does not.

Even first person shooters who pioneered multiplayer separate multiplayer from single player.

I think that that was worded poorly on Priestly`s behalf.  MP does directly affect SP, but you can still achieve the same results in SP.  MP offers an alternate route to get the same spot.  More options for more people, not a bad thing

I will renew my Xbox Live Gold for this. Xbox Live Gold is a rip off, but I guess I have to renew in order to play the full game.

I guess I'll play as a Turian Vanguard class...

That`s something I`d be pissed about too.  I hate the thought of paying to play games online.. main reason I upgraded my PC and the xbox is just a dvd player now but that`s hardly bioware`s call

I'm so not happy about this. It's one thing to include stand alone multiplayer, it's another thing entirely to have it impact the single player campaign.

Did you miss the part where he said  "Success in multi-player will have a direct impact on the outcome of the single player campaign"  They can spin it anyway they want about being able to get the same result in the single player, but the optimal way is going to do it through MP.

^QFT.

Multiplayer should be completely separate from the SP game. I don't like that it ties in with the SP game. I feel like SP has been compromised now.

except if MP isn`t optimal for you, you don`t have to ever touch it and it will never comprimise your single player experience.  I just don`t understand.  It`s there, it`s an available option to people who want to use it (and they will) and is by no means required to be used by people who don`t.  Options are a good thing

My problem lies with the fact that it affects the SP game. It should be separate--a fun mode for people to play on like Assassin's Creed.

By integrating it into the story, they have compromised the SP game. They said it wouldn't affect the game, but then they turned around and said that it will have a direct effect. They can't claim both ways. It either affects the game or it doesn't.

I'm going to wait to see how awesome the XBox version of the game is before I buy the PS3 version. I probably won't do multiplayer on the XBox, since it will no doubt require a Gold membership (SO not doing that). Whereas on the PS3, I can play over the Interwebz for free, so the investment in a second copy of the game would probably still be worthwhile compared to forking over cash to Microsoft for their online membership. And naturally, I'll be an asari, with biotic powers (Warp and Reave, if I can get them both, and Throw, if I can swing it). And if I can somehow also get Incinerate, you betcha I will.

This. But I'm gonna do it any way. And plus, as greedy as Microsoft is, $60 for a year isn't the worst thing ever....still a rip off though

[dauschi]

lets just wait and see but overall I'm not happy with a MP in mass effect...why not make a spin off?

Hope there is no impact on the SP if i don't play MP ....kinda sad

This is going to be awesome!

no its not!

think for a bit.

with all the time and effort and disk space they use on MP they could have used that to make SP extra long extra epic extra polished and hell id rather have them get rid of extra bug. MP is wasting time money and disk space.

ME3 will probly last only 10 hours and have loads of plot holes because of time and space being wasted on MP which when released no one would care about.

scrap MP and the story will last twice as long and make sense. MP is just the devs being lazy and the writers running out of ideas.

they had two teams the core team for sp and they hired MP devs for the co-op so your wrong

They could have used that 2nd team to make the SP even more epic.

lol butthurt fanboy who cant handle that there will be OPTIONAL(Yes you can get the optimal ending without playing it) multiplayer

NOOOOOOO LISTEN.

YES MP is optional BUT the TIME the devs WASTE making MP they could have focused on making SP perfect, BUT NO they now waste time and DISK SPACE making a MP mode when the core pat of the game the singleplayer story gets MOTBALLED.

and what the hells this fanboy name calling?

do i like Mass effect and all biowares games? YES
do i want all those games to be perfect? YES

if that makes me a fanboy then im happy to be one, id rather call myself a gamer though.

ME1 was a single player game.....It could be beat in 10 hours and it's side quest was just copy paste missions....
That was them focusing on sp only..... So MP is not a garruntee of that happen because it happened with out it.

And no the sp in ME3 is not "mothballed" because the main team is not working on the mp.....They are working on the sp only and another team is working on the MP.
Also, this is PvE  MP.....A very simple mp to build out side of net code. Their is no balancing to do due to pvp.

This is just a new mode to see a new side of ME. You get to play something that is not a human......
You overreacting to this.

There is no absolute guarantee that the SP will be perfect, even if the pool of human resources used to develop the MP are allocated over to the SP.

In fact, I'd like to argue that it might even impinge on the quality of SP, due to the law of diminishing returns. Too many devs working on a singular aspect of the game may result in conflict, laziness and inefficiency, eventually compromising on the SP as well. 


As a gamer, I feel that Bioware are doing their best to make Mass Effect 3 the complete package, with something to offer for everyone. Remember, the Devs are fans too. They, of all people, should be the ones the most concerned about the game, and I don't think it would serve their interests to screw up this particular project. 

[Reever]

Key word: optional! Chill out, guys =)

Anyway, me gusta actually! Sounds cool, I´m a bit hyped! Wonder how many races and maps there´ll be available! Also, by doing both SP and MP you could theoretically finish the game much earlier (without having to do all missions even?)! This can also make the game have a higher replay-value!

That would have been better. Maybe a DLC or something like that. But you could just look at it that way. You didn't HAVE to play LoTSB in ME2 but it was more story and stuff. I look at Galaxy at war the same way, only difference is it's co-op. 

[kumquats]

I get the feeling some people don't read the FAQ before posting. It's hilarious ;D
I will check out the MP in maybe my fifth playthrough. I kind of look foward to playing a Salarian.

[baryonic member]

I'm glad it's not just another typical action oriented multiplayer component, I already have GoW3 for that. This looks pretty promising, and considering that it was developed by another team at BioWare, I don't see how this could have any major (negative) impact on the singleplayer. One thing, that I know won't be implanted, that I would like to see is cross platform co-op. Only two of my IRL friends play Mass Effect, one on the PC, the other on the PS3, and I play on the 360, so it presents a little conundrum.

They still stated the it has no impact on sp if you don't play it. The fact remains is that you don't lose anything not playing the mp. You may gain something, but that some you can still get playing the sp.
You lose nothing.

Yes.. it does if you want it to, and doesn't if you don't want it to.  It boils down to personal preference.  

[Kakita Tatsumaru]

Yay! I "LOVE" not being able to play missions because they do not support single player...
ME3 better not have any flaws in single player mode due to lacks of time/money, or else I'll get my copy used and without any DLC.
I hope they will have DA2 selling numbers (still doesn't have it, and don't plan to), so perhaps they will finally learn something from it.
