DiscoBabaloo @masseffect the female didn't had an helmet. Does that means will be able to customize their faces in MP? Fernando Melo DiscoBabaloo@gabrielnunes @masseffect not faces, but other aspects. each kit has unique look. that is the human kineticist (and she is bad a**)!
EDIT: Design along the line of DAIMP, i.e. fully named characters with backstories, and banter appears to be debunked. More like ME3MP than DAIMP.

Lots of kits in ME3MP didn't have helmets and all we got was an occasional tattoo or skin tone that isn't even noticable
Asaris Turians Krogans Vorcha Salarians
Just off top of my head. You didn't get to customize any of those. So I'm not expecting anything different this time around, and would hardly consider this news.

Customization was pretty lame in ME3. Just messing around with color patterns that and it wasn't done on purpose to maintain a specific look because they all looked generic as F. I mean, all the asaris where the same, wearing the same armor and whatnot, same with vorchas, batarians and every other race really.
I hope they give each character a specific look this time then, since they're not gonna allow the player to do it themselves.

It would be really fun if we could bring our custom Ryder into multiplayer. One can only wish though.

Not sure if the banter will be beyond "Enemy sighted!" or "Get down!" Someone asked the devs about this crucial information?

See, this is the information we really need to know. No romances options, or game play, or story, but this...I need to know if my MP characters will ask the squad if they tried the ham last night.

So we're talking named characters, not anonymous classes? Names, backstories, and banter? I'm really confused by this thread... The Human Kineticist sounds absolutely no different than the Turian Havoc, Asari Justicar, Krogan Shaman etc. Just a different anonymous class name.

Yes it may be a leap and I may be proved wrong.But I'm calling it ahead of some suitable mockery if wrong, later on.

My take is 'she is bad ass' is just casual talk for that character kit is very good. After all 'Kineticist' isn't really so much of a name than a description. Kinetic being a motion, the ist being the suffix for the forming noun, so that would make Kineticist a description for someone that moves things a lot. Something that is clearly the case with that character as she has both Pull and Throw. We shall see I guess!

I hope the kineticist revolves around crowd control, disabling/controlling/debuffing and not purely biotic dps or explosion spam.

Why would you remark that she is 'bad ass' if she is an anonymous class? Because she's a kit that is powerful and fun to play? At least a third of the kits in ME3MP would qualify as 'bad ass' and they were all anonymous. I honestly don't understand this leap of logic.

I don't know - I got super hot deep red sexy skin tone for my Asari. Makes them go from overdrive to overcharge.

Well, that is a shame. I was hoping for some story and bantering as they did for DAIMP. I loved to the some personalities in the kits, making them closer to the concept of 'hero' in other multiplayer games. In ME3MP characters are so dull and lifeless (except for the melee krogans).

Kind of relieved they're moving away from full characters, to be honest. It contributed no small part to DAMP's early demise, so this will be better for longevity as far as content and support goes. Really would prefer that ME:A survived longer and saw more [than five] additions to the roster. I've said this many times, but while I did like the characters in DAMP, the fact that they were characters (more importantly uniquely voiced characters with a number of lines) meant that it was a good deal harder to create new ones. The fact that all we got after months was three voiced characters and then two silent ones near the end proved it for me way back. This is relevant: As the person who made a lot of these I completely agree. It was really difficult to get things out quickly - eventually I just pitched them without VO and unique needs (ZITHER! and Isabela had a lot of tech that had to be made) and that got the last two out much quicker (SilentSister/Saarebas). If one were to be making something like this in the future, one would be wise to plan for an easier turn around so the live community could be supported at a reasonable rate . Personally though, as someone who has been on both sides of the fence for waiting for features, I can say that a month feels very fast as a dev and VERY slow as a player. The trick, I think, is to design things that have longer/stronger replay value to allow us, on the dev side, more time to build new things.

i hope the kineticist is all about scorewhoring, power spam and pure dps. i want all the characters and weapons to be purely focussed on pure dps and scorewhoring. that makes the game fun
