Wait, am I reading this right? The "galactic readiness" thing in the SP campaign will be determined by some MP "Galaxy at War" feature?

Not entirely.  The MP can affect the readiness, but so do things in SP and other Galaxy at War unannounced systems (which I'm assuming are also SP).

Unannounced, which means they haven't figured out how the crap to make this **** work in SP yet.

Er, no. The "Galaxy at War" system is pretty blatantly going to involve ME3-style versions of ME2's squad readiness, except this time on a grander scale. So things like wiping out an entire race by accident won't bode too well. That kind of logic.

Either way, I doubt they haven't figured it out by now since it's the ME3 equivalent of that stuff from 2. It's unannounced because they announce things slowly. That's marketing 101.

I thought the official announcement was going to be on Wednesday. I guess the reactions moved up the timetable.

Chris Priestly posted in the other thread that he would attempt to get some information regarding mp before Wednesday. That same post was attacked multiple times. Now that he got it everyone is just praising it like the second coming. 

Stay classy BSN.

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.

I never doubted this final chapter would amazing, and this will just be another tasty treat to snack on for those that care to sample. Can't wait for March! :wizard:

I hope the board freakouts didn't ruin your family's holiday. Thanks for this info.

Well said.

Bioware has done the impossible.

BSN: I'm pissed off. Bioware is nothing but a bunch of liars and money grabbing Candians.

Bioware Dev: In the next game you get to play a Krogan.

BSN: I...really? OMG I love you so much I'll never get pissed again.

Bioware Dev: Of course not <_<

BSN: I'm pissed off. Bioware is nothing but a bunch of liars and money grabbing Candians.

Ironic. It's sort of like the cycle in Mass Effect.

Except instead of happening every 50,000 years, it is more like 50 minutes.

I'm curious, what if you play a lot of Galaxy at War then decide you want to do an run-through and get the worst ending? Will this still be possible or will your galaxy always be too ready?

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.

Read the OP again.

I did.  That is an accurate summary of what he said.  Readiness is increased by MP, but you can still get the optimal outcome without MP.

ie. MP makes getting the optimal outcome easier.  Not playing MP will make it harder.

I will also suggest that game outcomes may well be balanced on the assumption you will be getting readiness points from MP (if they aren't that causes its own problems for people playing MP.)

I get that many people are happy about this.  Fine, I am happy for all of you.  I do not like this, however.  It is not a deal-breaker for me, but after DA2, Bioware's "auto pre-order" status is on shaky ground with me.  I do not like having MP linked to my SP experience, and yes, it is now linked.  The game will be harder for those of us who choose not to play MP.

We'll see.

I think you are reading into that too far.  I think the SP's standalone victory conditions were not changed to punish you for not playing MP.  I think it was made easier for those who chose that route, they are two distinct things, but as you said, we shall see.

Read what you just said. If the MP route is easier than the SP route, then the SP route is by definition harder than the MP route. If that's not "punishment" I'm not sure what is.

Must have been some blue or red text in there somewhere.

I'm going to accept this. If multiplayer must be implemented in Mass Effect this is the way it should be done.
Whelp, I'm up for some actual video of this. Here's to hoping we get to see some of it soon!

Hmm... Now this Galaxy at War system sounds interesting as well. I'm looking forward to see how far you guys can push it while keeping it interesting.

I'm OK with this anyway, personally. Getting everyone through the Suicide Mission safely in ME2 was too easy.

Oh yeah, if origin is required on PC, then **** all, that's dumb

It is required. But not a deal breaker IMO.

It isn't Kool-Aid for those of us who were already borderline interested.

Is your sole purpose in life to be a miserable negative-nancy?

I feast on your tears. They are delicious.

Do you mind sharing those tears? I'm a bit parched right now.

The implementation of co-op sounds interesting, and...it is completely optional. As long as the single-player campaign itself has roughly the same amount of time as ME2 did, then I'm fine with the new addition.
