If it wasn't for MP we quite possibly wouldn't have had the year long delay, which means we wouldn't have had other playable races and probably a smaller would have world to explore in SP.

Yeah a few probablys there, but I've got to think having MP improved the case for getting the game delayed as long as it was and all the improvements that came with it.

 

Still looking forward to seeing the M&KB UI though for sp...

 

Judging whether or not this adds something to the game in general before it's even out is faulty logic, and saying this delayed the game a year by itself, when it builds off of mechanics already in the game is laughable.

That made me LMAO. People were looking at me weird as I tried to walk TO my car.

Morning after DAMP announced and I can't shake the excitement I feel. Looking forward to what they will be showing at PAX.

Edit: phone left out words....

In the hope that we can put aside some of the ME3 endings / connection to single player debate, for now...

(not disrespecting those points, but until release other than BioWare assurance to the contrary there is little else to be gained in the debate)

 

I'd like to try to unpick exactly what we know from the demo:

 

Here are the 4 players doing their thing.

Looks very much like what we've seen of DA SP.

I assume in the game itself the names would be our gamer tags etc: 'Buttbreath77' etc.

This looks GREAT! Fabulous! So excited. If this is like ME3 MP, then likely I will just go into MP first and then do the SP campaign later on.

 

I remember once I was  as tackling Gold and Platinum levels on ME3 MP, the SP game even on Nightmare was not all that hard. I wonder if they upped the difficult?  :-)

I think I will not touch MP until I have played the Prologue and the first part of the Single Player game up to the acquisition of Skyhold.

Once an Inquisition has been established, then my head canon will allow me to try a DAMP campaign.

here's detail you missed, notice "Scylla" facing an enemy? that's Qnuari Warrior. you can hardly see or make it out, but it shows the detail of that outfit you can see.

Good spot - Qunari confirmed  :D

 

Also more stuff from the IGN demo:

'Locate the target enemy' looks live a zone quest.

'Defend the inquisition informant' looks like another one.

 

Also, you can kill streak:

DA:I getting multiplayer? While I rejoice as I loved ME3's MP, I weep for my social life.

 

Also: I'd really like to know if it's cross-plattform. Xbox and PlayStation playing together probably won't be possible (unless Microsoft changed their policy), but at least playing together with those on the same "ecosystem" should be possible? Although Bungie didn't do that for Destiny neither.

It's probably too early to tell, but has any of the devs stated what types of MP 'kits' they will be adding via DLC?

 

I know they said that additional characters would be added, but did they clarify what types are going to be added?

 

Obviously, things like a Fenris themed warrior, or a or a female version of a male character (or vis versa) is to be expected, but are we going to see things like previous specializations (i.e. Shapeshifter, or Blood Mage) making an appearance?

 

More importantly, can we expect to see MP characters that are not based on one of the four SP races, things like fantasy creatures that have been shown capable of working with the PC in previous games? 

 

So far the MP looks amazing and I can't wait to play it, but if BioWare can add in character 'kits' like a Mabari war hound, or Grand Sylvan, or Masterwork Golem, or Awakened Disciple then DAMP would be absolutely perfect (IMO). 

 

ME 3's MP was incredibly entertaining, but some of the kits just felt like unnecessary filler (IMO) nothing as varied as the original Geth and Batarian kits in the Resurgence DLC, or as unique as the Volus and Geth Juggernaut kits. DAMP looks to be expanding on and improving on everything ME 3's MP did right, and I really hope that non-human (in my case I consider Elves, Dwarves, and Qunari to be human) creatures are a part of that expansion.   :)

The multiplayer announcement is a gift that keeps on giving.

Most likely and i'm pretty sure "scylla" is one of the devs

We've already had things added to the game that originally weren't there. Originally it was a human protagonist only. Now we have Qunari, Elves and dwarves as options. More than even Origins had. Allen in an earlier post said the game world would have been smaller without the delay. So yes we have had things added to the game.

 

We don't know why EA allowed the extra year to further improve the game. It's very plausable an MP aspect added weight to the request for more time to fully develop the game, and yes both aspects would certainly have benefited from the extra time.

Character classes from the GameInformer article:

 

That is very cool indeed, notice the arrows pointing left and right, that's not all of the classes; characters. I hope there is a Tevinter Arcane Warrior (sucker anything Tevinter).

Indeed. From that image, and the official multiplayer video, the characters we can see so far:

 

Reaver
Necromancer
Alchemist
Keeper
Elementalist
Archer
Assassin
Katari
Legionnaire
 
The GI article also mentions the Arcane Warrior, but no visual confirmation of that.

Really hoping those cards are included in the Inquisitor's tarot pack.  All the card designs so far have been absolutely stunning!

I will likely roll out before I do SP. Same thing I didn't with ME3MP. It helps me "learn" the new combat system without getting my character killed. It is an extended tutorial.

On the second link, ME3MP was supported for 1 year with operations and new content (though obviously it's still active).

Jeez, 1 year of support is honestly pretty damn impressive. A lot of non-MMO games get like 3-6 months tops

I think it's funny that DAMP looks almost exactly like BioWare's new IP Shadow Realms, but in a fantasy setting.  I wasn't really impressed with what we saw of Shadow Realms, but it's looking great in DAMP.  Maybe it's because it's in a fantasy setting and the gameplay looks more appropriate.  Honestly just looks plain better too, though of course SR has time to gear up.
