That ship has sailed years ago.  At the start of the game when you see the large friendly button that says 'multiplayer' don't push it and you shall never be exposed to the horrors of mp.  However since you have declared ME3 and DAIMP boring and stupid you must have tried both of them out.  Don't put yourself through such agony!  Don;t press the multiplayer button!

That might be true, but I will continue to tell them how stupid it is. They aren't even fun which is even more fucked up. So I don't get the ****** point. If I wanted to pvp there are so many great mmos out there for it. I spent years doing that. MP is just sad. They should ditch because they have no idea how to make it fun.

I'm sure they will carefully analyze this valuable feedback and take the proper steps to fix the game.

lmfao. Thanks for that mate, I needed the laugh. My only hope that post birth-abortion on MP is possible. It is miserable, poor thing needs to get taken out for its own good.

Everyone don't like MP I get it, but you know there is always the option to just not play it if you don't like it, quite a lot of us enjoy it way more than SP, but most of us (other than some ironic troll threads) don't demand that SP is completely removed.

Who needs virtual romance when they can romance you and me instead? Tie in MP and SP and see how the romance threads will gradually switch to real love stories.

 

 

LOL
 

Don't you think it will be too difficult for them?
Those that are stuck in the ME romances - find such clinical simplicity easier than complex real life. So it's minorities from all walks of life that can't seem to move on:
Youngsters with no previous experience.
Lonely Students
People that move to a totally different town
Middle-aged who missed the boat and can't figure out the modern way of flirting.

So ME is somehow some type of educational checklist for a large range of various minorities. It's not bad. It's just the way things are.

 
And LOL  those two quotes really made me laugh

I believe multiplayer is the main feature that saved the franchise.

 

Believe me I was hardcore on SP and story right from ME1 (and with BW's older games), but they have yet to demonstrate a great story in their modern titles - it could happen but a safe bet is that MEA won't have a good story, given the trend. I'm sure we'll all love the characters, but I have huge doubts on receiving a well thought out and original story.

 

As it progressed through ME2 and ME3 I cared less and less about the reapers and the universe as a whole - now I don't care much at all. Therefore multiplayer is the main attraction now for me when it comes to Mass Effect.

I agree with this too. If anything, ME1 as a whole and the characters are what keeps me playing the trilogy. Although since I touched MP, I haven't bothered with SP.

 

So I can see why people want MP to be a main focus now after ME3. :')

[LightningPoodle]

I expect the multiplayer to be much the same as ME:3's multiplayer. That game has a large following and a dedicated fanbase. Any developer will know that when you build a multiplayer like that and you have a group of players that enjoy it so thoroughly, you don't change that. You keep it much the same, and only tweak it ever so slightly so as to provide a new experience.

 

If they dramatically change it, they risk losing what they once had; and games like these with multiplayer functions, they very rarely last years after the games release.

Are you guy's really that desperate to be hit upon? Making lonely person ads in threads on the BSN?

Pardon my unexcusable English, but I happened to notice that people play games with "team mates". Looking up "mate" ended up with pretty clear indication about where these gaming intentions eventually lead in the English speaking community.

And I am completely OK with that.

[TheN7Penguin]

I love ME3MP to pieces. Still my favourite multiplayer out of any game. I really don't want PvP, because that'd totally ruin the experience. What I'd like is more customisation. Maybe being able to choose helmet/no helmet on appropriate classes and customise a character's face if you want to.

I also hope the QFI and Lancer make a return, because it would be an empty multiplayer without her.

But what do I expect? Even if they make no changes to ME3MP, just add a load of new classes and maps to the existing ones, I'm happy with that. I'd like the classes from ME3MP to be available on MEAMP. I can't leave my QFI+Lancer behind. I just can't.

That's fine for you, but it will interfere with SP. I have no doubt that it will. That's not okay. So not playing isn't always an option. It isn't appropriate in an SP game. If you are only playing for MP why not play a game that's actually built for it? That I just don't get. There are so many great pvp and co-opt games out there. There is no reason that we should have ever had MP in an SP game to begin with its just another dumb way to monetize.

No, that's not right. Its "My only hope that post birth-abortion on EA is possible. It is miserable, poor thing needs to get taken out for its own good. <3". I mean if you are going to change my words, might as well make it accurate. Really the jokes on us because SP has already been aborted. I mean we saw that in ME3 and DAI. I am entirely okay if ME:A turns into MP co-opt. One less game I have to follow. They need to make a new IP that's not crap and make it SP only.

My expectations?  Hm...

 

Let's start by EA setting up sufficient game servers to reduce Latency and provide fast response times to avoid the stuttering we sometimes experience when playing with others located in the four corners of the world.

 

Here, btw, is an excellent Netcode video description of what happens between you, the server and the guy that's shooting at you:

https://youtu.be/vTH2ZPgYujQ

 

Now, I like co-op play, so PvE is my "thing".  PvP may be problematic if gear is unbalanced. With RIFT Horde mode clearly shows the advantage of better gear and a team with pros... the newbies simply get slaughtered like a fat calf..yes, you are slotted in within a level group but that newbiness simply makes you a fighting toddler. 

 

I strongly suspect similar consequences with ME:A horde mode. However, Horde mode in ME:A should be against computer controlled opponents. Still, I suspect rules would be necessary to balance both side of the equation. Last is something I call Horde opportunity. When you are ready to play Horde mode are there enough players within your group level to play or will we see something like ME3MP and expect the "team" to rescue the weaklings?

 

Really last is the Leaked suggestion that you may need to jump from the SP campaign into MP Horde mode to get superior gear that can be used in the single campaign. I think, in this case, Horde Opportunity applies and can be problematic.... unless you can elect to have computer controlled horde players on your side.

No, that's just the thing - in my opinion there is no other co-op MP on the market that's even close to ME3MP, it's just way more fun and interesting than any other MP game of this type.

I'm not to fond of PvP games as those tend to attract hostile and immature behavior, MEMP have a much more friendly and supporting community in general, which is another reason for why most of it likes it so much!

This exactly. ME3MP is the most friendliest community I have ever experienced, even friendlier than SP Sections tbh if we're talking about just posting on the forums as well. There is a huge difference, it's like SP section has all the kids and haters while MP section has all the mature people who knows not to take these forums too seriously and start harassing people. 

 

I know though, that SP still has a lot of good people, I'm not saying all is bad, not at all, people here is just more easily triggered but I made good friends here as well, so I'll be posting in both sections, no need to pick a side lol xD

[Xerxes52]

I'm guessing we'll see either a PvE Horde mode (ME3MP) or a PvE Dungeon/Pub Crawl mode (DAMP), most likely with four players. Will probably have to buy random packs with in-game or real money, which offer characters, guns, consumables, etc. Four to five difficulty settings would be likely I think. Also you'll probably be able to reset max level characters for some in-game benefit.

[correctamundo]

Nah, the DQ got friendliest and bestest crew on the BSN ;-)

I dunno about that - I experienced quite a bit of toxicity when I used to play MP, so I don't think being PvE makes it immune from human behaviour.

I understand. Maybe it depends on the people you happen to encounter. I've been lucky so far but there are bad people in every society.

I expect customization and lots of it.  I want my multiplayer character to be my own.  I want to choose my armor, my class, and my weapons.  I especially want to choose my colors and not that weird "two-tint" bull.  No faces are needed, but let us make our characters unique.

[Fade9wayz]

(/laughs) I kind of agree and disagree with you at the same time. Really, ME3SP isn't so bad as long as you ignore the Endings and plotholes here and there. The gameplay's good, although too easy.  However, I usually only go with one playthrough with these kinds of games, unless I consider alternative endings offer enough relevant changes and are desirable enough to be worth another playthrough. This was the case for ME1, but not for any other BW games I have played, where I just go for my best ending. I don't bother with romances past my first playtrough either.

 

MP is more challenging and fast-paced. It has offered me the replayability I was looking for. Pure gameplay without embarassing myself with what was, at this  point, unnecessary froufrou.

 

That said, it's not MP that hurt SP. Bad writing is just that, bad writing. Looking for easy scapegoats isn't going to fix it. We can't do much about it except hope BW hired better writers this time around, or directed them to come up with better stories (although I can't complain about the dlcs in both ME2 and ME3 as a whole). And in the case of DAI, I'd also point my finger at making it an open world. Nothing hurts more coherent storytelling than that. The ME series hasn't done a bad job at giving players some sense of liberty in choosing the order of quests to accomplish and how to solve them before the final one, DAO and DA2 too. DAI in that sense was a mistake. Too much freedom. There's a disconnect when NPCs tell you there's urgency in solving the main quest while you can run around like headless chicken solving insipid sidequests, uncovering every nook and cranny of the map because you can't stand that black fog, or making it your sole goal to find and kill every dragons in the game. Honestly, I only completed the game because there was a dragon to fight at the end. The boss, for how uncharismatic and inane he was, (can't even rember his name) should have just died crushed under Josephine's desk. And a goat.
