*poking fun at actually.

Are there only only three strikes before ruining a franchise...?

I believe EA and Activision are competing to find out.

Dam was really hoping for a challenge vs Reapers in London as a sort of final push/protecting Hammer's flank as they rush the beam type thing.

Excellent idea.

Just thought I would mention that BW is only hosting the matchmaking and data logistics processes, not the MP games themselves (those are hosted by the game creator/leader). The MM processes don't really take up a lot of resources so there should not be a total shut down any time in the foreseeable future. And when they do finally stop running those processes, they may have to patch ME3 to exclude the MP aspect of the readiness score in the SP game.

 aww well I guess that is it then. oh well. It was a good year or so we got to do the weekend challenges.

[Zaxares]

Aww... So they decided to nix it after all. Ah well... It's been a good run, and I still intend on playing MP now and again for a quick fix.

Profound sadness.

It was fairly obvious - the reckoning kit , operation Lode Star and stopping balance changes and then n7 weapons made U R . Fun while it lasted . Will keep playing , still learning and still million miles away from max manifest

This.

Not surprised at all... As the Q said at the end of Star Trek: The Next Generation...

"All good things, must come to a end"

I think a part of myself knew this was coming as my willingness to play ME3 MP has significantly waned, to have it declared that one part of the MP is now dead and the future for the rest of it uncertain, time to move on to that backlog of games and prepare for new titles this year (Army of Two: Devil's Cartel, Fuse, Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn, Saints Row IV, Grand Theft Auto V just to name few ) I think.

I admit, I probably will play a match or two with some friends who still want to play, but not going to actively play... UNLESS the drop rate of the UR's is increased so I can get a UR weapon from Reckoning to finish that challenge...

[Praxus07]

Really, Really wish they had kept up the weekend challenges, even if they were just repeating all the old challenges. Gave me something to play for, now with nothing to look forward to continuing to play just feels empty.


ME3 is the only multiplayer I do, now I'll have to find something similar if that even exists, which I doubt since everything seems to be like Halo/COD style, which I really dislike.

Hey guys - so yes the servers and challenge systems will keep running as long as we can keep them up but there will no longer be any organized weekend events.

Thanks for confirmation on this. Any chance of past events being recycled at least?
Or commendation packs being added to the store - even as a one purchase per day thing?

Commendation packs have been added to the ultra rare pool

N7 weapons have, can't buy commendation packs though.
Which we should now be able to.

Finally, I can stop playing this game lol don't get me wrong, any game that can keep my attention for a year is good, but there are new games out there now. I think I'll play this game like every now and then.

Yup, weekend challenges are confimed to be no more. Page 2, post 4 of this thread by NPlewes confirms it.

See, now was that so hard, Bioware?

People have been asking this question for 2 weeks now. A simple answer could have been given at any time.

Concur.

Seems more than a little weasely to make the announcement in such a back - alley, undercover kind of way.  As though the MP community is now, literally, an afterthought.

Does bring up two big questions - balance changes and ban waves - are those over too?  If so, the leaderboard will very, very quickly become utterly meaningless - as will most PUGs...which will pretty much kill any remaining interest in MP.

Unless you like playing with God powers and endless hordes of husk/zombies, that is.

[Cartims]

Well...I don't really care much, the only reason I liked ME3 at all was I could play with my friends in MP...otherwise the whole game for me was worthless....tis a pity to see such a game go down the tubes so quickly..*sigh*....fu bioware...you ruined one of the best games ever...

[Grumpy Old Wizard]

No patches, no weekend events.  Hopefully they'll throw a few more balance changes our way and give a boost to the underpowered/underplayed kits.

Could be a lottery. Modding has always been a good way to extend game life.
Given the chance, who knows what people could come up with if allowed?
Yes you'll get those who have shurikens one shotting platinum preatorians, but you could get some very creative things happening as well.

Everyone liked banshees randomly turning up in games is one easy example.

many malicious critics!
We need thank our loved geniuses of bioware!
For his kindness. We played the MP without pay monthly, for now
They really know how to run the business
reliability, efficiency
I love EA

Money is not the object...I pay gladly for quality...the key word is "quality"...bad games are a dime a dozen.
