Mass Effect 3 Mulitplayer???

So first it started as rumor and now it seems it is true..... I am highly disappointed and was hoping it is a rumor. Mass Effect games were some of the greatest stroy driven games I have ever played. I am truly excited for the third entry but not excited for the recently true rumor that multiplayer mode was added. It is not deal breaker but still seems like it is unnecessary. It is like adding sugar on top of cake that is already loaded with it, just don't do it unless you want to have some serious problem down the road.
