I don't know if it's been said. the thread evolved a bit and I only have one opinion on the subject anyway.

With that I'll just remark.

Adding in bots is actually more likely to kill off Co-Op quicker than actually prolong it so you can find more players... i can go through and make some guesses as to some people in the forums by responses in this thread and others that would only play with the bots and refuse to play with any people what so ever. which if they are going to play the multiplayer at all that reduces the pool of people the rest of us who might want to play with people have to do so.

it could work when it hit a point in hopefully a year or so when it's mostly died off and they decided to add that feature as an addon after months of testing and play.. But that and people that can never get online are the only two instances that I could see the bots not basically having a detrimental affect on the mode.

I'd argue it would make no difference.  Those that would make heavy use of bots are most likely those who wouldn't use multiplayer at all otherwise.

But most of the hardcore fans of Mass Effect are going to be playing the multiplayer for the story and the impact it has on the single player campaign. Wouldn't it be a damn shame if you loose one of your favorite species' colony because some douche can't play the darn game properly?

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for adding bots, but the number of people that are going to play online (at least in the first month of release) is going to be much smaller, if bots are avaivable.

I was about to make the same answer. Bots helps those who can't play online, whatever the reason, those who plays online already have the habits of playing with jerks anyway.

you hit the nail on the head for me, i wont play MP without Bots anyway and for people like me they would have Bots. But i think the majority of people will indeed play online.

Bump for great justice

[Iakus]

I don't suppose a dev has addressed the request at all? Positive, negative or "we're looking into it"?

[Xerxes52]

Not that I know of.

Hopefully we get something soon, one way or another.

I Pray that Bioware lets more solo people use bots for multiplayer. Perfect Dark was a pretty heavy multiplayer game for its day but its bots added a lot of staying power that kept me playing for years. For people without easy access to internet or are solo players bots would definitely give ME3 game changing staying power. Hopefully the squad AI is adaptable and bot capable.

Hey, come on people. Bioware flushed a lot of money down the toilet for this horde mode, but they're not going to flush THAT much down into making it pseudo-enjoyable.

Bioware, how does it feel to know that you're blatantly copying another game that you're trying to be?

It's not horde. It's coop missions. Unless they changed it

You never watched the gameplay leaks, did you?

He probably didn't. It's a horde mode with objectives ocasionally popping up. 

See now? We CAN get along.

Nope I didn't. Didn't even know there was MP gameplay. I liked to wait for offical info and am VERY picky about spoilers and what is considered a spoiler so I'm not going to look up "Leaked Mass effect 3". So it's Horde 2.0 from gears 3? I'm happier about that than regular coop missions. Thanks for letting me know.

I was never a fan of Mass of War 3 myself, but to each their own I suppose, and you're welcome.

I think it could be both Hordes whatever that is and other things like from Red Faction where it waves of enemies after each round something like that. I hope it not be too overwhelming and difficult. I wouldnt like that much. I hope it be fun and very enjoyable not annoying.

Going off of the demo leaks for Mass of War's horde, it doesn't look that challenging until uber-cerberus-samurai comes out and auto-kills you.

[RAF1940]

I support.

[Doctalen]

Do you know what setting they were on?

[Drone223]

Support and also support for split-screen as well

There's been official info about ME3 multiplayer for a while now though. Barring the leaks everyone that's kept up with ME3 through normal means should know about the multiplayer now.

Really? All I've seen is that bioware tv thing about it but my memory is crap so maybe they did say it was survival. Other than that I have seen nothing.

Horde 2.0= Survival.
