We have no idea how much and what kind of resources Collectors really have and where they're located. In ME2 we just wiped out one base and one ship, that's all.
Actually - if you think about it, some aspects of MP don't make much sense relative to SP - particularly the enemy types.
The collectors were presumably wiped out in ME2, so their presence in ME3 MP is questionable. Fighting Cerberus post Cronos has similar issues. Late in the SP campaign, the geth could be your allies, though I suppose there may still be some pockets of enemy geth. Reaper enemies make sense throughout ME3, but not before.
Nothing says they were wiped out, and the descriptor for the DLC that included the Collector faction states they were brought in by Harbinger on "black arks".
Chronos is basically just before the end of the war anyway. Even still, I don't think it is unreasonable that their forces would still be fighting wherever they happened to be stationed at the time. It's not like Cerberus is a state actor that declares war or surrenders formally through a legal process. Presumably, they are just still following the last orders they received, or could even still be receiving orders from TIM, given that he doesn't die until the last 10 minutes of the game.
Geth can be either Reaper allies as before Rannoch, or geth platforms animated by Reaper code/software after if you recruit the geth. The latter explanation is stated by the asari councilor directly after the mission if you broker a ceasefire, I imagine to explain their presence in multiplayer regardless.
Does the ME trilogy entail a continuation at all? Bioware seems to be digging itself a hole by trying to continue something which seemed to be finished to all its extent.
Also, the lack of interest in Multiplayer by a part of the playerbase is a shame, especially considering how successful ME3MP was.
EDI's dialogue on the Collector Cruiser where she tells Shepard that this is the particular ship which attacked the SR-1 doesn't make much sense unless the Collectors have more than one of the ships.
I'm not sure I follow. Maybe I just don't remember that dialogue perfectly. Could you elaborate what you mean?
I thought the point in the scene was that everyone assumed they'd have more than one ship, and then they are surprised to find out that it's the same ship. So at that moment they (and we, the players) simply don't know whether they have only one or more ships, but based on that dialogue, it's entirely concievable they only have one that's made contact with other species.

It can't be anywhere as deep a hole as trying to account for and inevitably fail at getting all the major story choices to be reflected in the new game.
As for the lack of interest in multiplayer, that's just how it goes. Social gaming isn't for everyone and never will be. If it was a success in spite of that, then no biggie then.
The Mutiplayer can take place in almost anywhere, at almost any given moment in the ME canon. We don't need to move to Andromeda.
That being said, taking place in Andromeda presents very few risks for the Multiplayer. The same is unlikely to be the case of Singleplayer.

I still mourn losing Anderson as a council member.

No way in hell, bucko.
If I'm wrong go right ahead and correct but me but I've seen a lot people say that they don't like that multiplayer affected single player but even if you don't play multiplayer ever can't you still get the highest ems possible by doing side quests and stuff to get the best ending?
At the very beginning, you couldn't get to the 4000 pt. threshold without playing an hours worth of unknown bronze matches unless you had the iphone app. It was changed a few months later to make it where you could.
When I was playing ME3SP, I gave MP a try to get my fleet readiness numbers up. I almost never finished the SP because I was having so much fun with MP. I would like a good SP story, but I absolutely must have a great MP like ME3MP--but better, less buggy, and no RNG store.

Yes to ditching the RNG.
I wish they'd drop RMTs period, but that's what pays the bills in 2015.
That's a conceivable reading, but Shepard's reaction is awfully strange if that's what he's thinking. He says "The same ship dogging me for two years? Way beyond coincidence." That's pretty silly if there's only one ship ever -- of course the only Collector ship being present at both events isn't a coincidence.
OTOH, Shepard has been known to say stupid things from time to time.
How is that strange if Shepard has no reason to even suspect that Collectors might only actually be using one ship in the area? She believes they have multiple ships - there's no reason to assume otherwise - and is therefore surprised when it's the same ship.

Oh, wait --- you're saying that there's maybe only one ship but Shepard hasn't figured that out yet? And maybe never does?
I still don't understand what you find weird in that piece of dialogue in the first place, it makes perfect sense to me. I ask again: could you please elaborate?

Everything they had and were was the property of the reapers. Given they're either now docile or destroyed, the only thing that it's likely Collectors did is fall into the fetal position and slowly die of malnutrition.
No. I'm actually quite tired of MP. No more of it.

I'm quite tired of baddies who hate MP because they're terrible. Please leave or git gud.

Dear Bioware, don't bring anything over from DAIMP.
Much love and thanks in advance.
Beyond the actual gameplay itself, which shouldn't really be relevant here as ME:A is going to play very differently regardless, what is the problem with DAIMP?
As for the lack of interest in multiplayer, that's just how it goes. Social gaming isn't for everyone and never will be. If it was a success in spite of that, then no biggie then.
I remember a survey that went around when DAI came out.
SP will always be the main focus,
the extent to which multiplayer should feature should simply relate to how well it can be done.
I will be buying this exclusively for the MP only. SP is just a bonus. I hope they get it right like ME3 with many new add ons
