Sooo... what other factions do you guys think will be in the game's multiplayer proper? Geth are a certainty, as well as Reaper troops (Cannibals, Husks, etc.) probably.

[up][up] I think that's it. I recall someone posting an article here (or back in the 3 thread pre-spoilers) that said that the Collectors might be an enemy faction, but that's a maybe.

[up][up]Is that grenade pistol an actual multiplayer weapon, or is it entirely cheats?

[up]That was me. It was when I posted that collection of game journalist previews of the multiplayer mode. One of the articles mentioned the Collectors as enemies.

Someone datamined the demo and found that a lot, if not all of the weapons in the full game are in the demo, but they are documented.

So, you could alter your files and do this kind of crazy shit.

That particular pistol grenade launcher is the same one used by Kirahe in the demo.

Damn on silver Mantis wouldn't cut it anymore to one-shot kill anything tougher than Assault Trooper aka every single enemy except Guardian...surprisingly, with my Stasis Bubble Asari Adept, the Viper works MUCH better when dealing with the likes of Nemesis...(3 headshot kill, no Stasis break, can pull it out much faster than waiting for Mantis to reload...)

Well, my asari Adept only uses her gun to shoot down Atlas.

The rest of the time, she spams throw.

Hmmm...Is anyone else...Kind of disappointing that there's about 4 conversation options in the entire 30-40 minute demo?

If the rest of the game is like that. Well, I won't be buying Mass Effect 3 for the story, and quite possibly won't be buying it at all, unless it's a better TPS than Gears.

^^ Well my name's uncommon enough it works...plus I don't need to remember all those login ID when I want to access one...

^ Yes, but consider that EA/Bioware doesn't want to spoil stories too much...makes sense...(the Eve and the beginning is already well established to the public, so they won't need to worry much about spoiling anything, since it doesn't really establish much except for that Reapers already invade...)

[up]People were saying that about Dragon Age 2.

"Oh, its probably just for the demo."

Absolutely nothing changed between the demo and the same content in the release.

^Apparently it DID change for ME 2 demo and the game.*shrugs*

Also, we do have had more dialogue choices in gameplay video sections that weren't in the demo tongue

@Deception rage comic: kind of dissapointed that the author didn't make fun of Anderson and Kahlee deciding to bang after Gillian and Nick's funeral.

And there were some deal of dialog changes in DA2's demo and release. For example, more conversation wheel symbols were used, Hawke actually looked upset during the sibling's death scene and Cassandra is more skeptical of Varric.

[up][up] I'm still getting the impression that there's even less dialogue choices in ME 3 than in ME 2.

It's not like the previous game has that many options of dialogue.

Besides, most of the dialogue doesn't appear during the missions, but with questgivers and squadmates small talk.

[up] ME 1 had a LOT more than ME 2 and ME 3.

DA:O had more than all three combined I think.

Honestly, it looks like in ME 3, Bio Ware sacrificed conversation choices to give Shepard more of a personality.

Actually, no.

Mass Effect 1 had three always, but middle one was always sucky one. Also sometime choices where same.

Mass effect 2 had also the same middle sucks thing but choices weren't ever same.

Mass Effect 3 seems to have sometimes ditched the whole middle choice and choices don't seem to be same.

But yeah, ME 1 dialogue wasn't that good unless you mean the illusion of control thing.

Not sure if this is worth anything, but apparently Mass Effect 3 has the most recorded dialog of the series. Also, the leaked demo contained a section not present in the actual demo where Shepard got to wander around and talk to people. And the devs tweeted that there usually will be a middle choice.

[up] The other NP Cs are talking a lot more and using more words, and Shepard's no longer speaking in short sentences (so as to give the player choice). He makes 20-30 line monologues all the time in which you have 1 or no choice the entire time.
