The MP is pretty barren right now. It's hard to get a full game.

The first thing that jumped out at me was every class starts with an AR as a primary weapon, the Sentienls Tech Armor sucks, only Humans can perform a combat roll, Adepts are very powerful because Singularity is the best CC power in the game, Sniping is pretty fun, NO ONE IS USING A MIKE, and most team mates are playing together well at this point.
The unlock system is pretty straight forward. There is a currency system where you earn credits for performing certain actions in game. You can use the credits to buy packages that give you an ammo power, 1 application of medigel, and a few other perks.
MP is fun and the gameplay is solid but not revolutionary. It will be a brief diversion from the primary game for me.

Damn the matchmaking is horrible. I tried more than 15 times and only one time i got in a game with 4 people. But for the rest when i search for a match I only get into matches with one other person. I really hope this doesn't happen in the full game since it bothers the **** out of me. Maybe it is because the demo isn't played by alot of people since not everyone has acces to it. So i guess I will find out tomorrow.
That's EA for you.

- note there are more enemy types in full game MP. Demo is only Cerberus for now.
- you can customize your character appearance, powers - you slowly unlock the ability to customize your appearance more and more.
- weapon benches are in there yes.
- you can also equip 3 equipment slots for things like ammo, self-rez stuff like that
- im not sure what the difference is between the MP and SP powers (if anything)
- there are 3 difficulty settings for a match: bronze/silver/gold and they get a LOT harder past bronze from what I hear

I've quickmatched 3 rounds and they were all full? Even when ppl left they were replaced.. Not sure why everyone is finding it so difficult to find a full game. You arent choosing maps and difficulties are you? That will limit your search greatly..
You hit the nail on the head, don't choose any options and matchmaking works fine. I played 3 quickmatches and every time the team filled up very quickly.

Are the species gender locked? Or can we choose male and female where it makes sense?

The powers are pretty much the same, only Soliders, Vanguards, and Infiltrators don't get any ammo powers since I guess they are all equipment options.

Haha, I'd imagined the MP would be similar to your last sentence, although I gotta think it has an ability to be a bit more fun once you get people chatting and coordinating. Like you and a lot of people I'll definitely be spending most of the time with Shep & Co., but definitely look forward to MP and glad to see others are too.

Looks like it... It is very unfortunate since when I played with those 3 other people I was really enjoying it. I search with the filters set to ''all'' so that shouldn't be the problem...

EA has nothing to do with it. 360 matchmaking is handled via Microsoft code. Not to mention Matchmaking sucks ass in general.BjorntjuNL wrote...

That's the answer. At the same time, this is also how it will be when in a year so which is why all MP games & modes should have bots and/or split-screen co-op, so you don't have major issues being able to play the game at all once it becomes much less popular and there's little people to find onlineBjorntjuNL wrote...

1) so far the only publicly announced way to play MP early is to have BF3 online pass
2) the only publicly accessible demo right now is the 360 early access one. If you have item (1), you can play MP on Xbox right now but may have trouble finding other players
3) the publicly accessible demo goes live at various times after midnight PST tonight (ie not likely earlier than that). Once you download the demo on your platform, you can play MP provided you have item (1) above
4) we hope to announce another way to get in there and start playing MP....

Hey guys, it's definitely confusing in this transition from preview demo to full demo:
1) so far the only publicly announced way to play MP early is to have BF3 online pass
2)
the only publicly accessible demo right now is the 360 early access
one. If you have item (1), you can play MP on Xbox right now but may
have trouble finding other players
3) the publicly accessible demo
goes live at various times after midnight PST tonight (ie not likely

EDIT: Ah, beat me to it...No need for this reply anymore. haha

thats horrible, we should have got early access already instead of waiting 1 more day.Jarrett Lee wrote...
From the other thread, I wanted to point out:
Note: the BF3 early access only starts when the demo is fully public. The early demo access that happened this weekend is different, but if you were one of the people who got in on that, AND you have BF3 online pass, you can get into MP.
