I can confirm that the co-op missions are playable solo. For reference, seek developer Brenon Holmes' (very helpful!) post earlier in Bogsnot's Multiplayer FAQ thread.

As for whether or not it's playable while the player is completely offline, though? I doubt it. It's client/server-based. I don't know much about these things but if there's a server involved...

I'm sorry, but I've yet to hear a bad thing about this multiplayer.

BUT IT EXISTS!

You know piggles my omelette though? OXM states that you can "even change your gender too, provided you play as a human" whereas Neoseeker claims "you can change your gender, unless of course you're an asari."

It's no closet secret I'd prefer the latter. I think I'm just going to go with OXM here since I don't want to be disappointed.

Well to be honest, there isn't really that many female Salarians to begin with, the Krogan definitely would not let their females fight with the Genophage and all. For some races it just seems impractical to have females be an option, of course there ARE female Salarians.. just not a whole lot, I'd doubt they'd let them do things the STG would.

Oh, you definitely raise a point. I'd argue that the salarians would reconsider that stance in light of galactic extinction, but you definitely do raise a point and one I've strongly considered.

That still leaves a huge gaping issue though, I think; all turians are required to enter into military service. I know it's only one major race at this point but that one does tend to crack immersion for me a bit.

Considering your avatar, didymos, I find that sentence very funny.  A croco-duck indeed.

I'm still not sold on this MP addition, i'd much rather it if they had announced this as an xbox live/ psn network download than something released with the game. If the game feels forced in anyway, or is over to quickly, or if things done get resolved the way everyone wants, MP will be the fall guy.
It can be justified as a download just not something included on the discs.

I love Bioware insisting no compromises have been made to the Singleplayer experience. Just like Dragon Age 2 getting half the development time. But no quality was lost, right Bioware?


I'm pretty sure our Single Player experience is going to suffer and I don't give a ratsass what they say.

Baldur's Gate 1,2 and Neverwinter Nights. Enough said.

because it wont be taking up any 'valuable disc space' that's why

FFXIII had three disks.

i know, i had the misfortune to witness it. I'm just saying that people will blame the MP if the campaign comes up short in anyway...

I've already decided there should be a BSN-specific version Godwin's Law: if your argument about a single-player flaw in ME3 amounts to nothing more than "It was because MP exists!", you have automatically lost.

ME never needed a multiplayer, whether or not it BENEFITS from having a multiplayer remains to be seen.

But the main issue is that we got something that WE DIDN'T EVEN ASK FOR. And since we didn't ask for it, one could almost assume that it really wasn't created with us at all in mind. No, I'm not going to start that discussion up again, we all know Bioware is looking for a larger base for this franchise. Fine, just as long as they realize that it's the existing base that's going to purchase this game on Day 1.

[Slunt666]

thank you
back on topic i think that the MP is going to be like Pinnacle Station but more in depth.
Anyway i'm off to bed, night all.

Thanks a lot, can you link me to this perhaps? I have no clue what you are referring to lol

You are the only person I've seen use the correct form of "disc" on here since I joined.

Enh. I prefer it myself, but there's not a very solid case to say one is more "correct". They're alternate spellings of the same word, and the fact that one happens to be used more for magnetic media and the other for optical media is just an interesting quirk of usage (heavily influenced by the makers of optical media wanting to seem distinct).

I know you didn't, I know I didn't, and I even know that most of us didn't,  but I also know that other people did.  And not all that infrequently either.

I'll say this too:

I would support, 150%, a Mass Effect game designed OUTSIDE of the trilogy that is directly linked to the series. In fact, I'd probably adore the bloody **** out of it.

I think that putting these 2 different games into the same release is detrimental to both of them. If released separately on DIFFERENT deadlines, I think both the multiplayer Mass Effect game and SP Mass Effect 3 would benefit greatly.

P.S.

Looks sick. I think this is going to be good. Very good.

Single player experience has been sacrificed for new shiny multiplayer experience. Thank EA games and Bioware for making such a brilliant decision.

And yet, here you are, like a butthurt loser who's whining his ass off, when he can leave at any time. 

"Leave" what exactly? The board? I leave the Board whenever I want.(or by force sometimes) What I can't exactly leave (thanks to you lovely Gears of War fans) Is the Multiplayer experience. It's now ingrained in my singleplayer experience.

Who do I thank for this disgusting debacle.

Riiiiiighhhht....   I read these posts and see a turd that thinks he's psychic; believing that if he whine's enough he'll either get his own vinyard or magically we'll all start to agree with him. 

I'm not an idiot, I'll wait to play the game before I feel the need for attention.
