Very Happy about this. Especially since it's exactly what I've been saying it was going to be.
Now to find out if we unlock new playable characters in the MP by recruiting them to the Inquisition in the SP like the Avvar Barbarian:
Do the Avaar have special huge models? (I swear this guys boss must have been a qunari or something with how he towered over everyone)
You do know MP is optional right? As in, you don't have to play it.
Of course. But as past years have shown, when the game launches they're going to focus on the MP aspect far more than on SP, also it will impact SP in some way I bet. So I may get it when it gets to the bargain bin a few months after the release.
Since there is timed exclusive for xbone, does that mean the first DLC will be MP or SP or both?
The Xbone DLC is SP, no word on when they'll be releasing MP DLC.
Yep my hype train has screeching brakes.
If MP has no effect whatsoever on SP it *may* start again. may.
Eh, well they just lost my money.
Oh really? For a feature that does not affect the single-player game in any way?
Alright, I suppose.... All of this should probably go in the multiplayer thread anyway.

THAT would be awesome. Fingers crossed.

This guys model seemed to be unique. I scoured the demo for an Avvar that looked like him and there weren't any. Which basically confirmed MP for me at that point.
I feel about as excited over the multiplayer announcement as I would being handed a bowl of vanilla pudding. Meh.
It looks enjoyable, but with the spread of platforms none of my friends will be on the same console as me and...ya know...stranger-danger.
I almost guarantee that you will make mp friends if you give it a whirl.
My train derails at the word "multiplayer," but I will say they've probably learned their lesson.
I'm hoping so but I'm gonna wait and see.
Me devs swore up and down MP had no effect on SP even after release. People had to datamine to see there was no way whatsoever of getting the Destroy+ ending with SP alone and even when they did backtrack it wasn't until the EC.
Fool me once....
Multiplayer isn't something that'd make me more or less likely to buy the game - I know I'll enjoy it but the reason I buy bioware games are because of their SP campaigns. That said, I'm happy that multiplayer is in, and I very much look forward to it.
Wonder how we create characters though. Are our playable characters actual NPCs from the SP campaign like that avvar warrior, or do we "create" our own characters similar to ME3MP?

Does affect any of the single player story? I.e. Strength of the Inquisition to get better outcomes for ending/or other plots
Nope. No story impact, aside from themes.
Then I am satisfied. MP enthusiasts, congratulations and enjoy I am an SP player only, and with this confirmation, I'm happy 
Didn't have to play it for ME3 either, but it gave you bonuses for the SP game if you did so.
And what did that matter. If you played ME normally you'd get the points need regardless. It was optional.
From the article it seems you gain money from MP, though I'm not sure (I've read the article in a few seconds).Yep my hype train has screeching brakes.

Not until the EC you didn't.
It was impossible to get the score needed in the base game without multiplayer for the last destroy ending. You could get everything BUT that.

Edit: Hm...like I said wait and see. I'll wait for release for a complete confirmation.

Awesome! Sounds like everyone gets what they want! MP for folks who like it, folks who don't won't even have to think about it. I'm pretty much SP-only, but it looks cool and I'm now planning on trying it out!

You gain money for your multiplayer characters.

That's good to hear, that was one of my biggest fears (hated how it was more or less required to play MP in ME3 in order to get the best ending/s, at least until the Extended Cut came out and fixed it).
I'll keep myself optimistic that a DAI Co-Op will be entertaining to play, since ME3 MP proved to more fun to play than I originally thought it would be.
