If there is going to be MP I just hope the campaign isn't going to be affected.
And I'll probably never play the MP even if it is good.
Alrite, Ill bite, Heres my rant against people who say this. Not to single you out badger.
Why The Hell would the campaign be affected, Campaign, and Gameplay. To be a Multiplayer designer, you need a very specific form of game development. Someone who understands the netcode involved and can understand the fundamentals of network design. They need to know how to get that packet to where it needs to go, what ports to use, how to deal with lag and network latency. Getting the packet across the ocean, and soo much other stuff. Your Average campaign designer isn't going to know how to program and maintain a multitude of servers all while making the game be able to connect, and operate through the Internet, Xbox Live, PSN.
Secondly, why would Bioware risk their last game of the epic saga that is making them millions? plus the potential of ruining their fanbase? When Programming Multiplayer, they would most likely Hire someone else who knows how to do multiplayer, Farm it out to another studio within EA, Farm it out to the Bioware team working on that MMO, or steal 2 guys from the programming side of the game who know multiplayer design. All of which has no impact on Campaign because they relies on Campaign Designers, and the Story writers.
I could go on and on about this, but I dont want to have to write an endless argument. Soo Ill end it here.
