They force you to play multiplayer...

Will be fun when multiplayer is dead at some point.

As the player engages in a war with the Reapers, he or she earns what the game calls "War Assets" and "Readiness."

LOLOLOLOL! What suit came up with THAT? XD

And that bit about how it's there to combat piracy or whatever, what the hell? That is REALLY clutching at straws.

Heh what absolute tools, all those decisions that were said to "impact the story on a grand scale" and all that ♥♥♥♥e, now just translate to some silly statistic / points value?

I REALLY hope this is trolling.

I truly hope so. Have you got the 'happy ending' and didn't play a second of Multiplayer?

You do not need to play multiplayer to get the effective military strength to full.
