What do you play ME3 Multiplayer for?
I play it for fun, and credits. :D

What has kept you playing this game?
Just the big roster of characters to choose from and trying out different builds on the higher difficulties to see if I can make them work for me. This mp has me addicted in the same way I was addicted to RE 4 and RE 5 mercs metagame. Granted I can dash enemies for melee kills with the asari, it's more difficult to do than it was with Wesker lol.

What is your "FUN" meter when playing this game? Or better put what do you consider a "FUN" game for you in ME3 Multiplayer? 
What I consider fun in this game is when everyone works together to get the game done. Also, when playing collectors at the LZ, that random PA-bomb that goes off when the game is over then everyone goes down, that always gives me a good laugh.

firstly, would everyone stop saying, "i COULD care less". you mean to say, "COULDN'T care less". if you COULD care less about something, that indicates you CARE about the thing you are showing displeasure toward. COULDN'T care less. english motherf***ers! sheesh

also, the only reason you still play this game invader, is so you can hear me swear and curse in strange and amusing ways...
so, why do i still play? because it's a way to waste time aside from tv, movies and books. that and i get to rip on people and not have it taken to heart. like invaderone. who proposed to me last night through song. i accepted. now to find a way to make him not look like Hercule Poirot

1. I play both because the game remains fun to this day, and because I like to get better; playing with so many different players helps me grow my skill set.

2. damn, got ahead of myself...see answer to 1 lol

3. real connections is a difficult one (largely because I'm a slack-ass and don't have a mic) but I feel like there are definitely a few on my friends list, mostly because they put up with me communicating via psn msg 

4. fun-meter probably gets full when you have those games that seem crazy intense, but through teamwork you pull it off. just a good feeling.. those are the games that are the reason I come back

Playing with buddies. I could do without the N7 score, the challenge points, the level 10 ultra rare weapons. I've played with people much lower in stats and they can do as well/better than I, but that's not the point. There are other things I could be doing/have to do - work in the day, watch dramas at night. It's always nice to hear "Yura's down, I'm going to revive her" and know you're gaming with fun people that care.

After experiencing platinum extractions, it's a little frustrating to use more medpacks on gold than on silver. But since platinum is another level, it's not so bad if we tank on wave 7 - sometimes a bit amusing. "Yura, for the love of extraction please don't take a rifle on a soldier"

PS: met the N7 rank 3 player in the US and his buddies just by doing some random games. I know I said I don't care much for N7/challenge points, but he and his buddies are good, and most of all friendly.

1. Despite the single horde mode this game is still fun with the variety of characters and weapons you can use. Plus I like the collecting aspect of gaming and would like to max out my manifest /eventually/.

2. See above. Need to max out my manifest.

3. I've made quite a few friends in MP but I really had only one connection to someone. Well, I thought I did. They turned out to be not so pleasant in the end.

4. I'm always having fun playing this game or else I wouldn't be playing it. Sure it's frustrating at times but for the most part I'm enjoying myself. Not as much as when it first came out, but nonetheless I keep coming back here to BSN and playing a few games every couple of days so.

I agree 100% with your take on the game.  I too spend loads of time in Silver just having fun (on PS3).

I play ME3 because it's just a fantastic mix. The Co-op game play really suites me as I just end up as a bullet magnet in versus games.

I keep playing as every game is different. The variety of character and weapon combinations is huge, and once you've tried the obvious ones you can start going mad.  I 've just discovered the Striker on a Turian is like running around with a blunderbuss in an episode of scooby doo!  I've never laughed as much!

I can have FUN all kinds of ways. From coming top in Gold (not a frequent occurence), to helping newbies in Bronze, to being in a match where we're all insanely bad and wipe on wave 3 - I just laugh at all of it.  I get fun from every game no matter how epic it is. :D

For some reason I thought this was about Koreans again. However, it seems I was wrong, so I'll take this thread seriously and do my best to answer the questions.

What do you play ME3 Multiplayer for?


A mixture of things. I do enjoy the way that the game has you progress and acquire better gear over an extended period of time, rather than all at once. The fact that I'm not logging 60 hours a week on ME3 multi or racking up multi-million credit reserves has given me an opportunity to test out and enjoy each weapon and class as I acquire it, and the DLC releases have thus far coincided perfectly with my rate of unlocking stuff, so just as I'm about to max my rares, a new DLC gets released, ensuring that there's always something new to look forward to. More importantly, though, there's something viscerally, fundamentally, intrinsically fun about gunning down a pair of Ravagers with a Revenant to save your critically injured teammate who's frantically trying to finish that last wave 10 hack. More than anything else, it's the unique gameplay that ME3 offers that keeps me coming back to it.

What has kept you playing this game?


See my above response.

Have you ever made any real connections through it?


Not really. Most of the people I used to play ME3 multi with are no longer active, and I can be a bit standoffish to randoms.

What is your "FUN" meter when playing this game? Or better put what do you consider a "FUN" game for you in ME3 Multiplayer?


Currently, a fun game in ME3 multi is a Silver or Gold game with 3 randoms where all players can handle themselves and no one has adopted any particular overarching strategy like camping or spawn-nuking - essentially a game where four capable and intelligent players work independently towards the goal of finishing the match without hindering or interfering with each other's playstyles or game experiences. Games like this with friends were even more fun, but those days are long past now.

For fun really.  Also trying to complete my manifest.  Just need to max a few ultra rares. 

What has kept you playing this game?

Enjoy playing with the different characters and weapons.  Plust the DLC that we have received from Bioware has kept me coming back.

I really enjoy when we have a team working together.  Have had a great time playing with some of the people I've met from here.   Played some matches a couple of days ago with a few guys from here, and it was such an easy going night.  Matches went by quick with no real hiccups, plus everyone is talking and having a good time.  Those kind of matches really make the game fun. 

@Invaderone:  As a fan of SoulCalibur since the PS1 days (SoulBlade)  you  should give SCV a go.  Good game.  Astaroth is a great character.  He has some great moves.

First, the ability to play as a Quarian/Krogan/Asari/other Alien Race. Second, the fun had with people from Spec Ops definitely got me back into ME3.

A combination of just enjoying the gameplay - despite certain problems - and once again people I've met.

Don't believe so.

When a match goes relatively well, although something has to be said for the matches where a wave is going really bad then someone suddenly takes a level in badass and wipes the enemies out. It's particularly fun when I clear an area I'm in and storm in to help allies in a different area, especially with a full-auto weapon or a Viper.

I play for fun first and foremost. If I'm not enjoying my time playing, I will quit and find something better to do. If I had to boil down 'the reasons' I still play this game it would be...

1) The community. There is a reason I don't want to see PvP added in this franchise. It's so nice to play with people who are laid back and just looking to play a few rounds for the laughs. The majority of people I've played with in this game are college age at the youngest, and most of them have been very kind.

2) The role-playing/character design. Bioware did an amazing job at making the Alien races play just how I would imagine them. We can be a pack of Vorcha lighting everything on fire one minute, and a unit of Asari Commandos protecting Thessia the next. The sheer amount of depth and re-playability added by this somehow made '10 wave horde mode' entertaining for almost a year now.

3) The 'puzzle' that is every class. Every class that comes out in this game has a unique moveset, and I love figuring out what character spec works best for me (not necessarily the 'most effective' but what I enjoy the most). It could take days, weeks, or months to finally find a build/loadout that 'clicks' for me, personally (still working on the Batarian Sentinel, my first DLC character ever).

I suppose I'm having fun in this game when I can work with others, figure out a new puzzle, try a new challenge, and usually have a good laugh. I enjoy the co-op first and foremost though. The only enjoyment I get from solo rounds is testing out builds at my own leisure. For me, kiting = not fun, but working with someone to achieve a goal = fun. I understand how some would like completing big challenges alone, but that is not for me (I enjoy platinum duos though).

It's all about fun with friends, meeting new friends and challenging myself. That's why I play and what keeps me going. Sometimes I'll start feeling the repetition and that's when I need to step away and come back to it later. It's strange how addictive MP can be, given how limited it really is.

I turned my nose up at MP at first. I'd been a huge fangirl since ME1, mainly because of the immersive story and RPG style gameplay with fun combat mixed in (also huge KOTOR/ biower fan). When ME3 came out with MP I considered it blasphemy and vowed never to play it (MP). Eventually the achievements made me cave lol - yep I admit it. Got it for Xbox at launch, but then got the PC version after a bunch of price drops + on sale and started playing MP with a good friend who had been playing it on the compooper version. I felt like I was breaking all my moral principles until I started my first match. Instant addiction. That was in July I think.

I started MP on Xbox right after that, and have been traversing between the 2 platforms since. I've met a ton of great people on both sides, both through PUGs and BSN. It's kind of amazing thinking of all the people I've connected with since I started MP, and continue to find new friends almost every time I play!

Recently I did hit a slight burnout point though. I found myself grinding challenges a little too much, and saw that it was a good time to regroup and put the fun back on before going back to it again. And we need to finally play some matches together!!

I play the game due to the large variety of characters to play as + the large variety of builds to try on each character, and the fact that some of my best gaming buddies were met on ME3. Admittedly, the game is beginning to become a bit stale and I feel needs a DLC release pretty soon, but even with it becoming stale, I still play it often because it's something my friends and I are used to and can basically turn into a chatroom with gaming in the background.

I love the ME universe, and after having played the entire trilogy 9 times I end up getting bored whenever I try to start another playthrough , the mp kept Me3 of the shelf and in my disc tray.
What has kept you playing this game?
i have yet to max my manifest, or complete the challenges, I doubt I'll even consider leaving mp behind till then at least.
Have you ever made any real connections through it?
Met my girlfriend because she was wearing a demolished t-shirt, does that count? I play mp with her regularly.

When I come across a pug with a mic and we can have a laugh and lock each other in the reactor without them raging and hate mailing?

OR it can mean that while it is possible that the speaker in question could activly care less about a topic, it would require some form of outside effort.

As I like to say- 'I could care less, but I'd expect to paid.'

Or a variation- I honestly couldn't care less even if you paid me.

EDIT: OT: I play because I love the PvE experience BW has created and continued to pour life into. I also love most of the community because many players are RPG nerds and are newer to MP/co-op so they actually use teamwork and socialize rather than play only to pwn n00bs and rock a great k/d ratio.

Great game, still fun. Mostly great people (read:geeks). Forged some nice friendships.

Thank you for explaining that. It bugs me too, almost as much as your/you're or they're/their/there fails. And I hate grammar ****s so it's almost ironic.

a. it is possible to care less (1-10/10 for care) = some care
b. not possible to care less (0/10 for care) = no care

I play purely for fun. ME3 MP is a great way (for me anyway) to unwind.
99.99% of the time I'm playing Gold and 90% of the time with PuGs.
In doing so I've forged some great gaming buddy relationships and helped some players become part of the BSN community (just ask Deerber :-)).

I guess I am drawn to the ME universe in much the same way a moth is to a flame. Easily the longest and most played game I have experienced.

Tis' very cool!
