I joined one match, to see how it was. I had to spectate, but luckily the round ended soon after. It seemed a touch laggy, which made cover annoying. However I played for 15 seconds, so I have no idea how it is consistently. So far my K is 1:1! Woo!

Good news, you can create your own room! We should play this tonight or soon.

The two game options are Assault and Recovery(not sure what it is called. But it's basically CTF) and Co-op.

What is the max player amount for R6V? We might have to do a little of this before FNFF.

16 players according to the IGN review.

I think you're right that it's 16 players, there was some footage shown that had a max of 16 players. Personally I think that's the sweet spot of team battling.

W00T!!

And - FOUR player co-op!! Which is pretty sweet after most of the other games out there only offering a 2-player co-op mode! Nice!!

(16 on a mission - like in GRAW - would have been a lil too many good guys I'm assuming )

[SpOoNmAn]

Rainbow Six 3 offered 4 player coop, good to see they didn't downgrade

[MwC Top Knott]

Just got done playing this with some MwC and it is real sweet.
didn't have any lagg to mention in game (when dead and watching someone else the screen hops alittle). I have the feeling that this is going to a huge MP hit

[Crankbait]

4 player co-op that kicks major ass. I just read the review. Commencing download.....

[NPYYZ]

Myself and two friends played the co-op terrorist hunt all afternoon yesterday. It was excellent. Althoguh we only had the one map to play the game never played the same way twice, meaning the bad guys were not in the same places and did not act the same way each time we played. Some times they would be in one spot, sometimes not, sometimes they would come busting through a door with guns blazing as we approached, sometimes they would not, and we would have to open the door. Great A.I. it always had us guessing and kept us alert. I am going to love this game.

PS: Very nice blood effects, the weapons and customization are awesome, fantastic sound, oh and here's a hint, thermal vision works nice when the bad guys use smoke.

NPYYZ - you are dead on with the description!!!

THIS GAME IS AWESOME!!! I'm looking forward to spending the long turkey day weekend w/ plenty of R63 lovin!!

I saw Keezy on it last night, so I decided to fire the demo up and check it out. Well, buy the time I had gone through ALL of the character customizations (and there are tons!!), he was already gone and into GOW.

I jumped into player match - terrorist hunt - and it was GREAT!! Good times!!! Just as NPYYZ was saying, there are soooooooooooooooooooooo many different ways to tackle these things - do you go in through the door? do you repel from the rooftop? maybe drop down the elevator shaft? why not keep a man up top above the atrium where he has a clean shot at everyone in the lobby?

GOOD TIMES!!

And the bloodsplatterizations - niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiice!!

[Peench]

Oh man! I gotta go download this bad boy to check it out... or I'll just wait until its released and then play the thing like mad. Sounds awesome!!!

[Wondermonkey]

Yeah, played some last night. While the graphics aren't really anything to write home about, I did anyway. My parents had no idea what I was talking about when I told them I was pwning fools.

Watching someone else's screen while dead was INDEED choppy as hell. But other than that, it was a blast. Nice custimaztion for a demo though, I was surprised.

We should definitely try to get a full room going with all of us.

[NuclearCujo]

Not sure if I am gonna bother downloading it up when I KNOW I am getting the actual game for sure. Is there anyone out there that is gonna pick this game up and play it soon, or am I in the uncool nonGOW crowd?

You are not alone brother... you are not alone...

I was just in GS tonight putting in my pre-order. After playing the mp demo last night, it's a no-brainer. Plus, I wanted to be sure I had it throughout the looooooooooong turkey day holiday week!!!

So yeah - Cujo - *I* will definitely be up for some Terrorist hunting with ya come Tues!!

And as I mentioned in the other thread - how SWEET (and hilarious) is this thing going to be with all of the digi-masking faces online!! Can't wait!!
