Mass effect Multyplayer idea's.

[wrecker77]

OK first of all

DIBS!!

OK now that thats done, This is a thred to talk about mass effect multyplayer.

Hopefully bioware looks at things on the internet to see feedback from people after they make an announcement like a smart developer and gets some ideas from the players that could be really cool.

So what would you like to see? Some Idea I have are

- MW2 esq spec ops like things.
- If not characters from the story, customizable characters. If thats the case... I am squidward the III, Second in command of the Blood pack army!
- Connection to story ala Bioshock 2.
- Kill cams. Why cant all games have one? And let us save some? I got some unbelievable story's from MW2 I wanna show my friends.
- Built in machinima tools like uncharted 2.
- A horde mode.

And more stuff I cant think of right now.

If you noticed those were all things from other games, good for you. Not all games have to do all unique and risky things. Just do what works. Be a copycat!

Any opinions on this? Anything you would really like to see?

Mass Effect doesn't really need a multiplayer unless it's a co-op multiplayer.

I want to see.............

.
Mass Effect 3 multiplayer be NONexistent (Coop included).

As for future mass effect universe games........maybe like a heavy RPG feel over 3rd person shooterness.........It would be nice to see player combos of biotics, tech, and bangbang have a strong boost. I would want to see the multiplayer action stay true to the Mass Effect universe instead of.....your team go here blow up, capture, kill this this and this.

To be honest......I dont know what it should have..............I would rather see more single player come out of Mass Effect than multiplayer (it just doesn't seem right for the game to have it) A Mass Effect MMO is probably the only thing I can see that works....other than that not so much.
I wouldn't mind seeing Star Wars The Old Republic being the only Multiplayer involved game to peek its head out (which looks AWESOME) and the rest to stay on the single player track

Well it was announced a while ago that its going to happen so we might as well embrace it.

I just can't see this being good. Mass Effect has proven itself to be an amazing one-player game. Making a multiplayer would just seem kinda gimmicky.

- MW2 esq spec ops like things.

No! no no no no no. That would ruin everything that ME is. It would take away the universe exploration, the rich deep story, just everything that it is. Just no.

 

[Glademaster_v1legacy]

How about having no multiplayer as ME doesn't need it and anything Co-op would unbalance the game completely.

 

[Dannyboy1186]

I dont mind co op but it would be nice if it didnt have multiplayer at all. I mean not EVERY game has to have multiplayer even if some reviewers mark it down for not having any.

 

[wrecker77]

Wow this is not well received at all...

 

[The Aimless One]

I suppose there could be an arena of sorts....
Where you test your skills against other players 1v1 or in teams.
Something like pinnacle station from the first game (dlc I think) only with human opponents.

As long as it doesn't interfere with my singleplayer Mass Effect experience I wouldn't mind.

 

[TheKruzdawg]

I personally don't think it needs any multiplayer at all. It's ok for a game to be single player, not every game needs to have a mode where players can beat the tar out of each other. I think Mass Effect is great just like it is.

 

[Programmed_For_Damage]

I personally don't want multiplayer mixed in with my traditional Mass Effect. I'm hoping it is something set outside the existing trilogy.

I thought maybe they could have co-op multiplayer, i.e. other players control the two additional members of the three person squad. However then they'll be fights over who is Shephard and what dialog choices to make, etc.

This. I don't like competitive 3rd person shooter games, only co-op.

 

[wrecker77]

I cant even look at you

Why, because he thinks that not all games need a meaningless multiplayer hash?

Well played, seeing through my ruse....

Thank god for your insight, for a team of developers couldn't possibly think of multiplayer options as sophisticated and in-depth as the ones you have presented.

 

[Ieyland]

Multiplayer is irrelevant unless they can figure out how to make the game itself not suck. First one was bogged down by pointless levels of micromanagement, the second one was aggressively dumbed down. Meaning the third will either embody the worst of both or be passable (mind you, everything has a microscopic chance of being good. Its just never worth mentioning).

Mind you, if the multiplayer decision is because after me2 shipped, they figured out what was wrong with both games, fixed it, and are now left with 2 years of either sitting around with their collective thumb up their collective ass or developing multiplayer, go bioware.

Please be joking.

Why thank- wait a second... I don't think your serious. Don't do that.

All multiplayer in games try to do something new and risky. They don't need to, like I said before.

Just as long as single-player is still 40 hours long and as good quality. I probably won't ever touch the multiplayer - my Xbox is dead now but when I get it back working I won't be renewing my Live subscription (runs out in a month)
