 Ok so for one thing, I'm kinda curious why theres no dragon age 3 forums.  Yeah the games not out yet but still..

Anyhoo, to the topic at hand. If ME3 proved anything, its that a game like this can do multiplayer.  Some things they could do are simmilar, maybe make it more gear based, in terms of there being more gear (like you can put on a chestpiece, legs, boots, a weapon, off hand, headpiece, secondary weapon, but more like how dawn of war did its multiplayer arena system than likea diablo style system. Every armor piece, weapon, shield and trinket has stats and behavior (like 'has a chance of summoning whirlwinds on hit'  or has a chance of blinking you to another location on hit', etc, that kind of behavior) specific to that particular piece of equipment, and is balanced against the other pieces of equipment relative to your class, (simmilar to how guns and equipment work in mass effect 3, except the temporary buffs could be called scrolls or something and the permenant ones could be called a talisman or something).

The way of obtaining the loot could be simmilar to how it's done in mass effect, you simply buy a 'pack' of  equipment and take your chances, but considering loot is much more of a part of dragon age, the rarer stuff could also be given as loot for killing monsters. Considering how the success of the ME3 MP I would say that the loot thing could mostly be done if you complete a challenge within the match, like kill this monster really fast before it runs away a loot bag, and everyone get's a chance at a rarer item.

Okay, so the actual gameplay, here's where DA3's MP has a real chance of separating itself from ME3. Rather than just doing a horde mode style game, you could also do a MOBA style game. Think about it, a MOBA where you can make your own character instead of having to play one that they made... how awesome is that? Granted that would likely mean more dev time, more time spent balancing (MOBA's are far more competetive than a horde mode style game, so that whole idea could just be a nonstarter, but it is a fun idea dunchathink? anyhoo, so questions? comments? criticisms? ideas?

ME3 is basically a shooter. Of course the MP can work.
DA3 however, I dont know. I'd be interested to see what they can do if it were to be bought to MP but I just want them to focus on a better job on the SP.

You might want to move this to the DA3 boards. Just saying.

Hey Bob, can you point me to the DA3 boards? I can't seem to find them.
