Multiplayer Mass Effect

[Logan]

Not long ago, a job was advertised at BioWare's Vancouver office detailing a position for a multiplayer lead for a game "set in the Mass Effect universe."

Whether this means some sort of multiplayer for ME3 or some new spinoff all together, what are your thoughts on this? I've talked to Bayli and a few of my friends, and I think done right, it would be pretty awesome.

What if you could invite your friends to your current campaign in which they took control of one of your squadmates? They could help you in battle obviously, and maybe even jump into conversations voicing their own opinions through separate dialogue wheels.

I dunno, I think if done right, it could be something pretty neat. That being said, I wouldn't want to see any Mass Effect deathmatch oriented online multiplayer or something like that. Enough of what I think, what about you guys?

I say it's Mass Effect MMO

[Logan]

MMOs = Behind Motion Controls, the number two cancer killing video games.

Probably, It'd be nice to have a good CO-OP RPG for a change though

[Logan]

That's what I'm tryin to say!

Why do we have to mess it up with all the massively multiplayer shit? Hell, I'd play a fucking turn based RPG cooperatively just for the HELL OF IT.

If done right, it could be pretty incredible. The way you described it in your post makes it sound great, but let's just hope it's done that way, or something very similar.

That would be awesome! I doubt it's an MMO since they're working heavily on SWTOR. Granted I'd love a ME MMO, one of the better scifi universes in my opinion. I'm telling you, you need to look into SWTOR before you bash it, there's companions like in ME, a base hub shiplike in ME, and an entire story line for each different class. That you just so happen to be able to coop with.

I won't lie, if it wasn't cheap turn based cookie-cutter mmo bullshit, I'd play a Mass Effect mmorpg in a heartbeat.
