You know what....I think if bioware got a hotwoman to streak in the middleof the street screaming with a micophone,"MP is not nessiasry to get the best end and you can get it doing the sp only.." I still beleive people will not get it.OMTING52601 wrote...
LMAO, apparently I voiced my confusion but hours too early. In fact, MP is necessary to gain the best ending, unless the SP manages to do all the side quests/planet searches/pick up all possible missions. I'm a completionist and I still managed to miss a few side quests my first time through the both ME 1 and 2. Also, several of the reviews stated 'SP should be able to amass enough assets without using MP.'

LoL @ marketing double-speak as "facts".
Never mind that you still don't begin grasp even one of the actual objections that people have to the MP as it has been tacked on, and reject out-of-hand all suggestions as to how those objections could be addressed.
You're the same Bioware sycophant who vehemently rejects even the concept of the option of AI bots and offline play for the added multiplayer content, and keeps insisting that the multiplayer and side-mission content is identical.
You have absolutely no room and no standing to talk about "not getting it".

im in the camp of where, as long as i dont have to do co-op to get the best ending, im ok with it.
and honestly, i kinda suspected this kind of thing was going to be added. bioware just needs to be honest with its playerbase. this game is not made for the single-player RPG crowd at this point . its not. its made for the gears of war / halo crowd that also likes a bit of story in their games..
and im ok with that, as long as the weapon modding and skill system is as robust as it looks. these two systems were lackluster at best in ME2, which is why i didnt like it as much as ME1.

You do realize GoW and Halo possess complex stories? You do realize, GoW or Halo's campaign isn't even a fifth of any ME Game? You do realize, that ME 1's inventory and weapon mod system, was basically, "Spectre Gear + Colossus = insta-win"?

Glad to see that I'm not the only person who recognizes Halo as possessing a decent narrative. Alot of people really tend to just overlook it.

Reading HALO's story interested me a lot more than playing the game.
Please don't take my disdain for the "dudebro" element of HALO's playerbase as disdain for the good parts of the game.

3. The issuse in hand is how the mp will effect the sp. And it mute, why? Because you can get EVERYTHING YOU GET AS A REWARD FROM THE MP IN THE SP. You don't get anything extra from doing the mp that you will also get from the sp...NOTHING!!!!!
So if anyone is worried about themp effecting their game.....DON'T PLAY THE MP!!!!!!!

Simple awnser is that it does not matter. If you can still play all the sp side missions, why worry about the mp effecting the sp? GR has a limit to what it can do to the sp, having more of the limit won't make have an enhanced effect on the sp final mission. Think of it like the normandy's upgrade system in ME2, you only had to get the thanix cannon, the new armor and the kinetic shields to make sure no one died on the way to the base. Getting the other upgrades did not make the final mission more successful or easier for having them. After the normandy upgrade you had two other factors to deal with on the final mission, discussions and loyalty, which will be much like what will happen in ME3.Vegos wrote...

Let's assume I've accepted the fact that MP is around and all. I haven't, but for the sake of the argument, let's say I have.
Let's say I happen to want to go and shoot up some stuff in co-op with my friends. I also happen to want to keep that from affecting my SP game because I want to have to bust my butt for the golden ending instead of getting welfare support from MP. And now I have a problem.
Yes, let's say I want to have my cake and eat it too, because cake IS for eating, after all.

Of course it matters. I want to HAVE TO do it the hard way.
And it you do gain it in the mp, what is stopping you from getting it in the sp? Does the game stop you from playing the side missions if you get the proper ammout of GR points? If not, then it does not matter. No matter what, you'll feel urgency. Why? Because GR doen not cover choices and loyalty. You lose nothing from the sp. So as long as you lose nothing from the sp, their is no point in worrying.Vegos wrote...

It's why for the ultimate insanity experience of ME2 you start a fresh character instead of importing one who wil start at level 5.
Comparing it to the loyalties in ME2, okay maybe it makes sense, but those loyalties were again up to me, and were not granted because something unrelated happened somewhere else, "but we can still go do it if there's time."
