Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer Catch-All – Shepards with Jobs

Would like an invite as well. Steam id is Optimistic - http://steamcommunity.com/id/Optimistic

I love that MP is co-op only. In my advanced old age (38) I can no longer keep up with competitive multiplayer. Just die instantly most of the time.

If some enem groups are harder than others, it would make sense that they used an easier group for the demo.

Harder than Phantom/Atlas? I can't wait. I'm also pretty certain I'll never be much of a Gold player. :)

It always feels like there are more Reaper/Geth. I don't know if it's because there actually are more or if they're just harder to kill.

The Phantom is still a very nasty enemy, but the Reapers have a unit with a ton of health (and barrier) that teleports, shoots huge powerful energy balls, can kill you with a single melee attack, is constantly shrieking, and looks absolutely goddamn HORRIFYING.

I got my hands on a Graal Spike Launcher and I love it. It has incredible power if you charge it up and it fires its flechettes in a very tight group, which gives it surprisingly good range.

Drop me an invite! On Steam http://steamcommunity.com/id/certis

Anyone know how to set hotkeys in multiplayer? It just doesn't feel RIGHT having my grenades on 2. They should be on 3!

Anyone else having server dropouts? Had several games where we were doing so good but server dropped. When this happens you lose everything you earned during the mission. Very frustrating. Going to try the single player out for a bit and hope server issues resolve.

OK, so multiplayer really sucked me in. I'm shocked.

I had planned to at least give it a try, but I wasn't expecting much. Then I ended up playing multiplayer until 3am last night. I have no idea how that happened or where the time went.

Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, it was the group I was playing with. It's hard to stop playing when you got a good group going. I used to have the same problem with Left 4 Dead.

I hope I can find time to do it again.

Guess I need a Steam invite, but I'm not really sure of the point of it since you play via Origin.

Does in game VOIP work OK, or are you guys using Vent?

I guess it's finally time to hop in tonight, but I've not played tons of hours of this like a bunch of you as I skipped it in the demo, so I assume I'll be lost and confused for awhile.

Pass a steam invite along, por favor. Link in sig.

In-game voice works fine.

Steam group seems just like L4D. Put up an annoucement/event saying looking for player(s). Or you can just spam all your Origin friends with invites. I suppose either way works.

I agree that the-game voip is just fine. You can bind a push to talk key and also set chat to broadcast even if you alt+tab out of the game. Everything about the demo and now the full version has worked excellent. I'm actually pretty surprised how well everything works.

My god. Husks will mess your s*** up.

The demo was really treating us with kid gloves.

Throw me an invite to the Steam group if you don't mind. See you all soon!

We need a link to your Steam ID profile.

Sent an invite to MannishBoy, and it looks like everyone else on this page already got invited.

Can I get a group invite as well? http://steamcommunity.com/id/crg

I'll be on 360. Put my name in the Google Doc.

I'd like an invite to the group please.

Also, feel free to friend me on Origin. Looks like I own enough games on Origin where it might be useful to use their friend list capabilities.

My wife was invited to go watch the Canucks play tonight, which means I can now spend all night playing mass effect without her getting annoyed. YAY!

I will be online at 4:30PST if anyone wants to send me a game invite.

Invites sent. For the filthy skimmers out there, remember to add your Origin IDs to the google doc.

I'm older than you. Our reflexes might not be what they were, but you can be competitive if you want to be in multiplayer shooters.

It's all in what you enjoy and spend a bit of time doing.

I played a round on Bronze and we all died in the last wave. It definitely felt a lot harder than Bronze in the demo.

I know I'll be playing some multi tonight as well, thinking about starting up around 8ish PM EST. If you think you're MAN ENOUGH, friend me up, Laarrs_GWJ on Origin.

*DISCLAIMER* By "man up", I mean try some silver runs, and probably die horribly.

I played for a while this afternoon. The Reapers SUCK, particularly that Banshee thing. Survived a Geth level to full extraction, at least. Also played about 3 hours of the single-player campaign, expectedly awesome and epic. Woo, ME3 day.

Toss me an invite if you see me on, Lars. Playing with you is always a laugh, even if things always end disastrously. Always.

Nope. Drag and drop didn't work in the demo but doesn't seem to work in the full game either.

Preset for every class... first 4 are class abilities. 5 is missile launcher. 6 is ops pack. 7 is the medi-pack. 8 is the ammo resupply.

Just an FYI, because I just sent most of you on the GoogleDoc an Origin friend invite. There's quite a number of you whose handles do not exist. Or in case of Dyni, there's 300+ hits. Or 3 LobsterMobsters. May make it a little hard for others to add you.
