Joystiq writes: "If an Electronic Arts job listing is any indication, Dead Space 2 is set to receive a gameplay feature that none of us saw coming -- online multiplayer support. The listing, which calls for the aid of a "Senior Online Level Designer," mentions that the new hire should "be able to work collaboratively with Creative Director and Online Producer to create extremely fun, satisfying and polished multiplayer levels." Those who desire to create droll, unsatisfying and shoddy multiplayer levels should probably look for employment elsewhere."
They'll have to speed up movement of the character to make the multiplayer less clunky.
The feeling of being alone in a dark, gritty, horrific environment is what made Dead Space a phenomenal game. Multiplayer would be very awkward for a game like DS. But as long as the sequel has a strong, engaging single player mode, I'll be content and happy.
needs 2 b different like demons souls.
Dead Space is one game that definitely doesn't need any type of multiplayer. I'll but the game without hesitation, but don't see why all these developers feel the urge to tack on some form of online play. Some games should just stay single player, this being one of them.
says the childish gamer:
"we damand trophies and multiplayer!"
says the mature sensible gamer who has been gaming longer than the current gen:
"single player games rule, I just hope it's as good as the first"
Moral of the story: anyway demanding multiplayer in a fantastic single player oriented game needs to GTFO of a dead space 2 article and go give mw2 some more undeserved praise.
I'm more excited in the fact that Dead Space 2 developement is clearly underway. Too long a wait my friends, far too long.
