Never got this "You can't have your cake and eat it too" argument. After all, cakes are for eating.

Everyone knows the cake is a lie.

At least now we can burn life's house down. With the lemons.

So "galaxy at war" is just like Gear of War's horde - players must survived an attacks of waves of enemy's. GeoW's Horde was made for co-op, but also it may be played alone. It is really, really difficult (even on easy), but possible. So, it is possible to play Galaxy at War alone, by a single player? I have never heard that devs talk or comment this.

They hav said from the start you can play it by yourself which is why alot of people want bots to be included since everyother wave you will have to activate targeted areas, which is kind of hard if you keep getting interrupted. But yes you can play by yourself.

Will it only be multiplayer online or can multiple people play on one Xbox? I can't tell you how frustrating it was when I'd have two friends over and the three of us couldn't play left 4 dead because only two people could play on one system.

online ONLY <_<

for me this game sounds like it gets worse and worse first it's the "just because" multiplayer, you can tie it into the story all you want but Mass effect doesn't need a horde mode other games have done it and probably have done it better.

I haven't read the plot leak but reaction doesn't sound good, will hold off on this point

and now the multiplayer I didn't want now HAS to be played online (and with achievements to boot probably wrecking my 100% completion thus far in Mass effect 1 & 2), if it was offline at least I could have played it with a friend, hell Gears of war lets you play solo offline.

and all this to justify an online pass I guess, to combat 2nd hand sales that are killing the industry dispite being around since the days of the NES and games like Call of Duty making more money than any other game ever

Do I understand this correctly?

I need to play multiplayer to max out single player? I don't even have XBL Gold! So I hope I'm reading that wrong or that's just something that raises it if you missed a sidequest at some point.

They say you can still get enough assets purely through single player to get the "optimal endings"

But it looks like you have to be a completionist and handle all the quests really well to manage that without dipping into multiplayer too.  Thus why I suspect we'll be "encouraged" to go both routes.

This should worry and dissapoint you more.

"such as the fact that your single-player and multi-player success will
depend on each other, with your performance online affecting the
single-player world"

That is straight from an IGN article talking about NEW info about multiplayer.  It looks like a lot of us were right about BioWare hiding how much the Co-op actually affects the Single Player Game.  This is looking more and more like a disaster every week.

Thank God Skyrim comes out tonight to save us with it exclusively Single Player game and devotion to a RPG experience.

a paraphrase of a Bioware blog entry. And I can't help but wonder how you failed to notice this fact, which was clearly stated at the very beginning of the IGN article (they even linked right to it): "An interview with Mass Effect 3 Producer Jesse Houston posted on the Bioware blog has revealed a load of new details about the promised multiplayer."  And it also neglects to mention the part of that Q&A where it is again stated to not be necessary.

They keep using that spin.

I keep not believing that spin.  Too many times a little comment here or there says that it is ingrained into the Single Player.

I still do not believe that BioWare is being completely honest here.  It is spin to placate angry fans.  We will see, but as more info is released, it is looking worse in my eyes.

Please add local multiplayer to this. You still have time and it can't be that difficult. This is not an antiquated feature rendered extinct by XBL. I would love to be able to share the multiplayer experience while sitting in the same room with my friends, having a beer (or twelve) and enjoying the camaraderie as we decimate the Reaper forces. I don't want to reduce this feature to a reclusive one. Why should I have to be holed up in my own house limiting my interaction to a headset when my best friends, who are also Mass Effect fans, are right across town? I've been behind every decision you've announced for this game including this multiplayer mode. This is the only complaint I have. Do not limit my social life with this game. I already have to get through Skyrim before ME3 comes out.

So my thread got locked so requests could get lost in this giant mess eh?

I was going to comment on what others said in that one. Yep, if EA decides to shut down servers, no more multiplayer. My friend picked up Army of Two w/ a friend so they could try it online, NOPE, no more server.

Hey guess what even though the original Xbox Live is down, and the original Xbox is decommissioned I can STILL play Halo over System Link, Novel Idea.

I know I'm coming across as irritated, but I've had Mass Effect as one of my favorite franchises ever, and I'm quite annoyed that they would follow the 'ME TOO' syndrome by adding multiplayer and the do to it halfway so that it prevents players from having features that are standard for that type of element.

I haven't read into ME3 news for awhile. So however long ago this MP thing has been officially announced, I just now found out. And I suddenly am not anticipating this game nearly as much.

[ArcanaLegacy]

Hmmmm question. I think i know the answer but i'll ask anyways.

If we downloaded the online pass for battlefield 3, will we need the actual disc to play the ME3 beta? Like with what happened with Bulletstorm and Gears 3. Cuz thing is, I have redeemed a code that came with the battlefield game. A friend brought the game and was going to trade it in, but knowing im a HUGE mass effect fanatic - he gave me the code. So yea....code redeemed - but no game :/ Im fearing that we'll have to access that me3 beta through the menus of the battlefield game like bulletstorm to gears 3. 

Im hoping that's not the case, though i doubt it 
Im hoping we can get some pm to download the stuff exclusively since its "early access". Like how psn does with its betas.

At this point it's been about a month.

And yeah, it really cooled my eagerness too.  At least to play it new.

[The Enforcer OS]

@Acky, iakus Is it more that people don't want multiplayer or that they at least want the ME Trilogy finished before it goes the multiplayer route?

I too completed ME 1 & 2 to 100% and actually on my second run on a different account, BUT I can't do that in a single player ME3 IF i have to play COOP and get achievements for that. I like cooperative multiplayer, but thats not how Mass effect started. It started solo, and although I wish it wasn't ending with such a strong emphasis on MP I wish players weren't being jammed into this tack on element that might be even more amazing if it had been held off for a new stand alone game.

I can only speak for myself, but my thoughts are the latter.  If a multiplayer game called "Mass Effect: Galaxy at War" was made seperate.  Mass Effect 3 should have stayed single player, focused on and concluding "Shepard's Story" If after that, they wanted to branch out into other things, other storyies, other genres, other types of games set in the Mass Effect universe, I say more power to them!

But no, Bioware is trying to have it both ways with ME3.  Single player, but not really single player.  Multiplayer, but not really multiplayer.  And I supsect that they will be more intertwined than we are being told.

 I fear they're trying to convince us of Saren's vision of flesh and machine being symbiotic when what we're going to get is a Collector.

Ah now I got some reassuring news from the Bioware blog with an interview from casey hudson on Splitscreen and LAN.
blog.bioware.com/2011/11/04/my-interview-with-mass-effect-3-producer-jesse-houston/

I read the chunks on the MP in that article and it does not assuage any concerns for me.  Its all PR spin.  Because they say they 'might' add it in the future.  Meaning it's not important enough to include on the disc.  

The argument about NWN servers still being up is invalid.  I know Mass Effects is popular and would have servers up for a while, NOT the point.  Players should not have to be forced to use the servers just because devs didn't feel like adding a standard feature.  

The bandwith poor area defense.... 'relatively good experience' is fancy way of saying we cannot guarantee it, but hey deal with it because the feature is not in the game. 

Bad Form, BW.

Add Local / Offline MP and my griping will cease.  ME3 needs to end on a high note.
