Honestly, before you all kill yourselves with this flame war, check my poll. Nobody WANTS to play the action mode.


Nobody on the BSN - doesn't mean the option shouldn't be there. 

Bioware and EA have market research that goes far and above anything that could ever be done by a straw poll of their fans. I can guarantee they'd never do something like this unless there was demand for it identified somewhere. 

I'll never use Action mode (Story sounds good for repeat playthroughs, though) - but I know some people who'd love it.

Isn't that called "Story Mode"? It's weird how nobody throws a fit over there being several difficulty settings, for those who dislike or aren't good with combat and it's mechanics, but people throw a fit over this. I don't rant about what things I think were cut from the game to allow for a casual difficulty setting.


Indeed. There's really no point in it, since any game in history could've been improved given more time and resources.

I have really no reason to mope about BioWare doing what they think is right for their own game.

If I don't like it, then too bad. Better luck next time.

Oh yay... more dumbing down and pandering to the lazy and the stupid. Just what we need more of in BioWare games lately. Let's just waste our time making sure the biggest "herp derps" aren't put off or slightly confused or bored by too many numbers. It was bad enough ME2 felt like it had shoved me into a high chair and was feeding me half the time, and now this.

Yep... it's looking more and more likely each week that this'll be my last BioWare game.


Silverlining, not seeing it.

This is my canon Shepard. I've had this save file since 2007. I'm playing it how it's supposed to be played. - RPG MODE

After 6 playthroughs maybe I just want to experiment with different class builds and gameplay tactics - ACTION MODE.

Maybe I have this Super Renegade save file laying around. I just want to see the choices I made in the previous two titles and how they play out. I don't want to get saddled with endless mooks like on Insanity - STORY MODE.

I've done ALL three at one point or another in Mass Effect 2. Now they fixed it up for me so I can choose from the begginning without the all button mashing in between.

Then they should go play a different game. That's what Gears of War and CoD are for, not Mass Effect. Why does every game have to get watered down and made more like Modern Warfare and pander to the idiot?! Why are BioWare wasting time on this crap instead of actually making a deep, involving and rich Mass Effect?! First Kinect... then multiplayer... now this! It's God-damned insulting!


Seriously? I just to reiterate - how does this impact you? Don't choose the option to play action game, play the story game since you seem to hate the combat and gameplay. Kinect? Don't use it. Don't have one? You're not missing out. Multiplayer? Optional. You're talking out your @ss and you should really check your facts before you start hating on Bioware.


The facts are simply this: what other things could BioWare have spent their time, effort, resources and budget on other than pathetic, pandering crap like this? Come March what am I going to be missing out on in the single-player campaign because they spent all their effort on these things? Am I still going to get vehicles, exploration, some decent sidequests and consequences beyond emails, things swept under the rug and lame substitutions, ala ME2? Beyond some weapon modding and skill-branching, I see nothing to indicate this isn't going to simply be ME2.5. They should be focusing on making the best possible single-player experience via an epic campaign filled with variations and content, not stuff that just panders to the CoD and Gears crowd to simply move a few more copies in the first couple of weeks.

........I cut to the chase.......No one care that you want it to play it only one way!!!!!!
Hell,You make it sound like they cut all the content of the game to put in these mode. Did you really seethe demo? If you did you would not be complaining. Everything hat is great about ME is in the game. The scene withWrex inthe demo is fantastic, the music is fantastic, the intro fantastic. Mabe if you lookat what they aremaking first, you may find that your complaining about nothing. Also, yourfogeting one major thing.... ME was never a hardcore stats rpg.
ME3 has more rpg features then ME1 and me2. So quit you complaining. The sky is not falling!

On the PC i only play in 1080p so i demand that Bioware does not make any other resolution options available because it's a waste of resources(yeah I'm much better at allocating resources than some employed who has done that job for years..just so you know) and catering to the the "wrong crowd"(the wrong crowd is anybody who play a game i don't like).

Also if there is a Vsych option i will never buy another Bioware game again!

I really doubt that they could've made some remarkable and drastic changes to the game if they'd decided to skip something like the Kinect functionality or multiplayer or something like these modes.

It simply doesn't work like that.

What is this? More options? In my Mass Effect?

How dare Bioware commit such an atrocity!

I read the post as a what if scenario but people are talking like it is actually in the game. Did I miss an announcement somewhere or is this typical overreacting?


There was a leaked beta on xbox because of human error on their side of things.  So some people were lucky enough to download and play it.  One of the most interesting things is the three modes on the main menu.

-Action Mode:  Activates auto-dialogue choices with possibly a paragon/renegade preference option.  Uses normal difficulty as default.

-Story Mode:  Old school manual-dialogue/full choice with casual difficulty

-RPG Mode:  Manual-dialogue/full choice and normal difficulty aka ME1/ME2 default

There's also a screen I saw somewhere of the options menu allowing players to customize auto/manual-dialogue, difficulty etc. regardless.  I'm finding the negativity over the options is a bit of overreacting.  All they did was script a feature which allows the game to pick certain dialogue automatically if the player chooses Action Mode or the option for Auto-choices in the options menu.  That's it.

Goes to show the complaints are more about other gamers than the options/game itself.  Which is kind of elitist and sad.  Sounds like "Go away and how dare you *other* gamers enjoy *my* game in a fashion *I* don't like, even though your playthroughs have no effect on mine."

Totally, dude.

My space bar is smiling up at me right now.

"You mean... you won't be pounding through all the conversations, anymore?"

No, spacebar, there's a preset for that, now.

"And you won't be slamming your thumbs on me trying to get through fights as quickly as possible?"

No, spacebar, there's a preset for that, too.

"And are you finally going to try typing more gently, master?"

Hell no.  You're still my b*tch.

You're arguing with a person who's been claiming he hates Bioware, Mass Effect, and these forums... yet seems to spend all his free time here. Don't even bother trying to use reason.

I also demand Bioware remove difficulty levels from the game. The money and resources spent on adding them could have been put back into singleplayer! The only level should be insanity because that is how I play and anyone who uses a lower setting should not be allowed to play it because they will not understand it on the same intellectual level as me!

Don't forget ALL the detriment to the "single player experience" for implementing the mode options. Obviously they had to cut out a whole third of the story to implement what amounts to "auto spacebar". :lol:

You don't have to in ME2 if you just keep pressing "x" to skip the cutscenes. After the 10th time it gets a little old. They're just giving you the option to not have to choose the dialogue. You're still going to have to see cutscenes, but you can skip them.


The intro to ME2? Got old the fifth time I saw it and I wanted to skip it like hell.


Yeah, except for that intro. But this is exactly why some people would want to play the action version! After so many times of seeing the same scenes...it gets old. You're kidding yourself if you don't think so.

It's being tweaked for implementation at the moment, a version was in a leaked beta.

Ugg...

I guess I cant really be opposed to the idea, but when did RPG's become something horrible that bioware needs to avoid?  They dont make action and shooter games with a toggle to give it character creation and rpg elements, if they are in the game they are and if they arent they arent.  Why is Bioware going out of their way to try these things?

I am not even sure if its even really skipping the rpg aspect, while I think decision making is a large part of an rpg, its not something that is exclusive to rpg's.  I still think the primary factor in what makes an rpg an rpg is the characters stats are what determine success rather then the players controller skills.  I still consider ME2 and ME3 action rpg's, and ME as an rpg/action rpg hybrid.

I never understood why the intro cutscenes were the only unskippable parts of both Mass Effect games. You couldn't even speed the dialog along.
