So I know that there is already a Mass Effect 3 Thread, but trying to fit discussion of the multiplayer in the same thread as complaints about the endings would just never work, so I figured multiplayer deserved its own thread. If you do want to talk about why the endings sucked, head to that thread, rather than this one.
Mass Effect 3 multiplayer actually has an appeal similar to that of pokemon, I think, with the degree of customization of builds as well as the team aspect. You need to have solid planning and coordination with builds before the match starts, as well as good tactics in the match itself. As such, I figured this forum would be a good place for discussion of ME3 multiplayer.
The juiciest thing to discuss here would be character builds, of course, and I'll offer a suggestion template for how to do that here:
You could also individually discuss weapons, maps, classes (i.e. what different types of builds can they use) or team strategies, but I say discussing builds is the juiciest because it basically covers all of those points at once.
Finally, the weekly balance changes are probably worthy of discussion here.
I look forward to seeing how Smogonites play ME3 multiplayer!
Edit: I completely forgot to point out that this is probably a good place to find other players to set up teams for Gold runs or whatever else. I am Scoopapa on xbox live.
