Bioware's New Game: It's Mass Effect 3.

<< < (10/70) > >>

KvP:
So anyway, I have to admit that a shooter in the ME universe wouldn't be all that awful, considering how good ME2's combat was. I would even characterize myself as happy with such a development if Bioware shied away from the formula laid down by so many other games in the genre - it's been long enough that deathmatch games are officially a niche market, and team-based MP is all the rage (and fits comfortably in a war setting) but a CoD-style "start map->die->respawn->complete objective->repeat" template would be boring. I'd hope for something approaching a co-op version of Bioware's single player games, and not just in the way that you could play Baldur's Gate multiplayer with one main character and a number of silent player-controlled meatshields, but in a way that incorporates all the players into all aspects of the game. I figure they've got ambition to burn with their MMO, they might as well take a crack at the same problems on a smaller scale. But that's some wishful thinking on my part.

It's also worth positing that perhaps this is ME3 and the Montreal studio is a dedicated team for a MP aspect of that SP game. Wouldn't be the first time that another studio has been brought in to handle MP for a game, I don't think.

KvP:
Also Bioware looks to have a boner for redlaser, as they let slip another code.



That one translates as the homepage url for the SIS. Hmmm.
