Baldur's Gate had multiplayer too - didn't affect that game one bit. Personally I don't care if they add multiplayer or not, as long as the actual game remains awesome. If they want to make the gameplay more action oriented, that's cool with me - but don't screw around with the story telling which is arguably the biggest strength of the ME series.
Mass Effect 1 was a slow moving ponderous gameplay experience fitting the exploratory theme of the game. Mass Effect 3's story is a do or die situation - pumped up nigh panic'd action may well fit the game better.
Dragon Age 2 suffered from being a sub-par story with recycled environments. It's actual gameplay experience was a very nice change from DA1 (preference, though I suppose I'm not a a "proper fan"). If ME3 does the same thing, then yes, Bioware will have slipped - but I very highly doubt this is going to happen.
March 2012... yeesh. World is going to end before I see any of the games I want to play in the future.

Proper fan as in someone who actually understands the concept of a story driven RPG. If it had co-op (which I wouldn't be totally opposed to), who gets to make the decisions?
It's like adding multiplayer to Skyrim, makes no sense.
Co-op
could potentially work, but a versus multiplayer would be ridiculous.
I'll wait until March to reserve my full judgement, but I'd prefer they didn't add multiplayer as that essentially means they used resources they could have used to make a better single player game, and put them into making multiplayer.
I'll reserve judgement only because I was what Ubisoft did with Assassin's Creed Brotherhood which I love the multiplayer element.
