At this point, no doubt there will be more Multiplayer in the future games.


If you didn't know already, EA some time ago, in an official press release, stated they would never again make a purely single player game.

So yes, there will be extensive work done on multiplayer for the future of ME, as long as ME and Bioware are owner by EA.


Which was taken way out of context. Having a social component doesn't mean that everything will have a tacked on Multiplayer.

I'm afraid that's exactly what is going to happen eventually, and I wouldn't be surprised if the next ME game was working only when connected to EA servers, like the new SimCity. But now that I think about it, SimCity works offline pretty well; you just can't save а game... So much for a 'social component.' It's all about DRM, nothing more.

To be honest Sim City does not work well at all at the moment ;)

Good thing I was never into those games, but anyways I'm glad to see this thread still alive and kicking. Maybe when there's more noteworthy news and tweets we can keep it going. :)

What's the one thing that defines Mass Effect for you? Shepard? Asari?
Lens Flare? We're interested! (remember, we're making a new one?)

Why exactly would they care if we thought Shepard defined Mass Effect at this point?

Because they want to know if they should create a new hero like they created Shepard.

You don´t need to answer, they already have the data about what you like.

Hm, since I don't actively use Twitter, I'll leave my answer here and hope maybe it gets looked at.

What defines ME to me..the biggest thing is the aliens. ME is all about how aliens aren't so different from humans despite all their differences and unique characteristics. I'm not really asking for more aliens, we already have plenty that could still do with a bit of extra love, but I'd like that theme to continue. Would really like to experience the universe from the perspective of different aliens, especially turians (as they are my favourite, clearly).

I hope we can see aliens speaking in there own langaues in ME4, and see new religons and stuff, it was odd to me at first as to why all the aliens understood english was there a universal translator on the citadel?:?

The Codex says that most people have an ear-piece translator.

For me, there are a few things;

1) Mass Effect 1 defined the look and especially the 'sound' of the ME series. I noticed that the FX audio became more like a contemporary FPS game, which conventional weapons sounds, which I didn't particularly like. Notice how the sound of the weapons is so 'different' and unique in ME1, compared to ME2 and 3. Also, while recognizing the music across the whole franchise is always good, I found that the most memorable music is from ME1, because track seemed so different. I recently bought all the ME soundtracks, and noticed that after playing the ME2 music several times, only the 'illusive man' tune was memorable. The ME1 soundtrack has so many more pieces of music that stick in my head.

2) One of the most memorable scenes in the franchise, that defined what the player was going to expect from the ME world, was the scene in ME1 near the start of the game on the citadel, where Shepard, Ashley and Kaiden were standing on a balcony, and looking into the citadel, and having a conversation. The conversation there was great, against the backdrop of the sound of flying cars going by. It really set the scene for me, and what the ME world was about.
 
3) The depth of the NPC's in the game, and your crew, and the interactions between them and the player.

There is one improvement that could also be brought into the next ME game, which is inspired from one of the characters in Dragon Age II. In general, all NPC's tend to have their lives controlled by the player, such that they  only do things when the player wishes them to interact or do something. However, I noticed that with 'Isabela' in DE2, that her character was designed such that she would do things without being directed by the player. Another example, is when the player went to see Fenris, and at the start, you see Isabela ending a conversation with him, then she walks past the player and 'winks'. This made the player think "what is going on? What have I missed". These simple things that made her a more realistic and 'human' character, and showed she had a life outside of what the player specifies. I think this is a way of taking the next set of ME characters, to the next level of believability.

Not unexpected but I've asked Yanick Roy (director from BioWare Montreal) if we'll be seeing something about the new ME game on this E3 and his answer was basically "no".

@YanickRRoy
BioWare's focus is on DA3 at E3 this year. And what the team has to show is really nice!

Not surprised, they need to show DA3 more than the next ME.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting anything ME related this E3. At the earliest, we could see a reveal trailer at the Spike VGA's, but even that is early, considering how many different directions they could go. Although based on recent news they seem to be prefering a prequel or a spin-off, so that may narrow their choices.

1) What kind of story?

2) the new protagonist

3) when does the new game happen ?! (very important)

This.

So much this.

And if it's post ME3, some indication of how it's handling having three radically different endings would be nice.

We really do have the best fans: I've gotten well over 200 answers to my question so far!


Yanick Roy@YanickRRoy
When the game takes place and who you get to play are very strong trends in your answers.


Yanick Roy @YanickRRoy
And while I'm sure you'd want both, I'm getting more requests about story than gameplay. It makes sense, it's core to a BioWare game!


Sounds good to me.

I and a lot of people felt rather burned by ME3, to put it mildly.  A trailer would have to show me a reason why I should come back.  Is this a galaxy I should get invested in again?

*sigh* I guess I'll have to sign up to Twitter one of these days. Never thought I would, but this thread has continuously reminded me what I'm missing out on :(

Yeah, I'm with you :) he seems like a nice guy, and I like that his attitude is not so serious. I mean, I'm sure he's serious about his work, but he seems more relaxed. Probably his use of smileys, of which I approve :P (I'm a big smiley-(ab)user myself, after all :innocent:)

@YanickRRoy when it is and who the main character is, but most importantly, if its still the same type of game, or different IE: new genre.

Yanick Roy ‏@YanickRRoy
@[person] That, I can answer right away: it will be the same type of game as the first three.

This is best news I have heard in a long time.  The pure FPS rumours had me worried.
