I really enjoyed running story missions in Borderlands with friends. The way they implemented the system worked so nicely. I kind of enjoy ME:A multiplayer, but running around doing horde-mode gets boring pretty quickly.
Anyone who has played Borderlands co-op knows they did an awesome job incorporating campaign missions into a co-op system. If you ran a mission on someone else's map before you completed it on your map, the game would give you the option to bypass the mission entirely on your own map once you reached it (or you could re-do it if you wanted to). It would be really awesome if more games had co-op campaign options, and I'd love to see it in a Mass Effect title.

I don't see it working as well for some reason. Borderlands has that magic too it which made it work. Especially it's humor. With Mass Effect, I just don't know. I have to think about it before I vote.

Nope that would be a deal breaker for me. I want ME SP to be a strictly solo experience. The level design, story and how the game is structured would have to change to accomodate this new feature which I really don't want. People wanting to play with friends have already the MP. I really don't want Co-op in my game because it's not just an option, it's something that will change drastically the SP experience. I'm here for the SP and if that is going to change then I see no point in continuing gaming a BW adventure anylonger.

It's not effected. |

I don't play MMO so I wouldn't know but I don't want my enjoyment to be dependent on others. My main issue is that level design, balance and plot will be affected by this. I still remember very well how EA ruined Dead Space 3 with co-op. OP made the example of Borderlands who is certainly not very known for its magnificent plot and character evolution. |

That is what I am trying to tell you. All the decisions and story is still effected by you in SWTOR. Think of them as more like companions then players. |

But I don't want other people as my companions, I want the BW crafted companions that we all come to appreciate over the years and that BW is well known for. As I said I really don't want other people in my game as there is MP already for that. Not to mention that level design and balance will be severly affected by that. |

I was just trying to clarify my earlier statement. As for the MP, it is not doing so well ATM because of shit balance, so they may move to co-op down the line. |

I love Borderlands, but...
Borderlands was crafted to be co-op which can be played solo, Mass Effect is sp game with optional multiplayer. For ME to become co-op, they'd need to change the way they tell their storied, which I don't see happening.

Balance is something that a couple of patches can easily solve. I suspect that the day co-op will be in the game it will means that we won't have a traditional BW experience with squadmates to love, hate and relate. We will just playing with random dudes that will change everytime we game leaving no sign of actually enjoying a traditional SP story with its fixed characters and their designed personalities. We won't have a squad to lead and relate to. Might as well play a MMO where everyone is cool so that none actually is. If they go that path well I will have to leave the ship and I say this not with rage but with sincere disappointment as I was a BW gamer since KOTOR. Let's hope that won't be the case. |
