That said, this game could definitely use some improvements for the long term. Currently, the only thing keeping people playing the game, besides fun of course, is the carrot of getting the ultra-rare weapons. Otherwise, all the best builds and weapons have been determined, so there is zero creativity. The maps are getting stale too. The two new ones are nice but this game needs to have a COD level amount of maps for all the money it pulls in. Maybe more enemies, new objectives, new modes. There needs to be a third factor, which would be challenges like in COD, achievements, or something to unlock. Even something like a hyper-rare weapon (1/100 spectre packs) would be nice.


Maybe they are taking notes from this particular MP to expand in that direction for future games.  As it stands currently the points you brought up are glaringly clear. There's only so many times you can run around in a circle only doing it for the chance to finally get that luscious carrot.

 1. You are assuming that the PC players make up the majority of the player base which isn't true.
 2. Diablo III is gonna suck. Totally going away from what makes Diablo, a Diablo game. D2 was the best.

I hope you are wrong other wise I just wasted $120 :P

Its not going to become dead because of diablo III, it will become dead because it gets stale.

while ps3 and xbox most likely wont
even notice I think pc will take a big dent, not a "it's dead" dent but I
think it will be noticeable. I mean come on its diablo.... borderlands
would not be around with out diablo :P console people probably don't
know how big diablo is on pc though I have not played 3 yet so 3 may
suck.


Max Payne 3 will take a chunk out of console players
After Max Payne another chunk of console players will get off for Ghost Recon
After Ghost, Resident Evil 6
After RE6 you'll have Boarderland 2
After Boarderlands 2 you have the juggernaut of this generation COD
After COD you'll have ACIII

Between
a Ghost and RE6 PS3 owners will have Starhawk which is actually built
for the PS3 so you won't get screwed by the BioWare bull****, and for
the Xbox 360 owners after Boarderlands you'lll have Halo 4 which was
built for Xbox so you'l have less glitchy **** to deal with.

Its
always the newest game for console owners.  You won't see the game dead
but you'll see a major dent that'll be hard pugging it.

Yeah, it looks like people are incapable of reading any other examples as soon as they saw me use "DIABLO 3!" I've mentioned multiple times that Diablo 3 was just ONE example on one platform.

Diablo 3 beta weekend is already started, it'll stay up until 23rd.
Maybe you should give it a try and judge yourself.

Forum debates can get heated and you lose track of things.  Also a lot of people that joined will just read the OP and pass on the rest of the other post.

I hope for BioWare they find a way to keep things fresh for ME3 but for me I got Starhawk on the console, Ghost Recon on the 360, and D3 on the PC :D

This MP ME3 is already going downhill, nevermind the weapons, the hardest difficulty is so easy now it's not even challenging. Give us Plutonium difficulty already

It won't let me log in, I don't know if it's because it's having problems or some thing else.....

Ghost Recon's MP beta is already turning a lot of people away from it. Hopefully their Guerrilla mode is a redeeming factor. Diablo 3 is going to take up a lot of my time, but that doesn't mean I won't play this anymore.

Just counting down to Diablo III here. So, starting the 15th, yes for me.


Exactly. Even if ME3's MP is making BioWare a decent amount of cash...without anything to keep players interested outside of weapons and characters (which, N7s are already a pain to acquire while chracter cards are the complete opposite), MP is going to go downhill with Diablo 3's release, Max Payne 3 will also be out next month...then Ghost Recon Future Soldier in June...and the BF3 expansion packs as well.

BioWare is running out of time. It's probably hard enough for a large portion of the fanbase to even THINK about picking up SP again until after EC, but if MP doesn't get more variety soon..it's all downhill.


Ghost Recon Future Soldier comes out May 22 :)

Congrats? I'm playing the Beta and having a blast. It takes the pain away from thinking about ME3's SP ending and the repetitiveness of MP. Grind on Silver/Gold > Buy pack > get inundated with character cards. Oh yeah, what a blast!!! I hop on it when I need a break from the D3 beta, or I go play Kingdoms of Amalur's expansion...when i've tried myself from those, I may hit up a couple of Gold matches. But the burning desire to log on and kill things is not as it once was....and I wish it were different. I really do.

Also The Witcher 2 Enhanced Edition just came out on the PC/360....such a great game.

On PC, yeah, probably. They don't really have anything else to play on Xbox, though.

Inevitably you'll lose players whenever the next new thing comes out. But the target audience for ME3 is not the same as D3; one's a top-down action RPG, the other is a hybrid RPG-FPS. It would take another FPS-RPG or FPS to be directly competing with the target audience, I would think.


You mean Borderlands 2? <3

Four player co-op? Check.
RNG based weapon loot? Check.
Soldier class? Check.
Sniper class? Check.
Power-based "biotic"? Check.
Point-blank tank class? Check.

On top of that, add in a massive game world, cheeky humor, and a story-driven, multiplayer campaign? Where do we sign up?!?!?
