View Full Version : 8 players right?
just wondering, 4v4 against each other and how many coop again? it seems to have slipped my mind, i was hoping that they would make it atleast 5v5
Yes, they have 8 players. I can't remember off the top of my head how many co-op players there are. But I think it's only 2 (don't qoute me on that)
yer im pretty sure i heard/read two for co-op

Yup - two player co-op - one plays Marcus and one plays Dom. Basically Dom is with you in any case, but he's an AI if there is no second player.

Im glad about their choice for two player co-op. I havn't played decent co-op since Halo (1).
anyone know if its live co-op only or split screen?

Exactly thats the point! They said that if your frustrated at a part that you cant beat, a buddy can join you via Xbox live and become Dom without stopping the game. SO RAD!!! This game is basicly all my ideas or things i thought were needed in a game. Purely Magnificant!:rolleyes:

Yes, it's not bad for small maps. It would sucks if there are a few big maps.

Four vs four seems a bit more intimate, like a beefy co-op, and I think that is what Epic is shooting for. The whole Band of Brothers thing. Six vs six wouldn't necessarily be uncalled for but I doubt they have the time to find out right now. With Xbox Live they can dish out content updates so maybe they will look into that if feedback suggest that people want larger teams on bigger maps.

Seriously though Epic, take all the time you need to get the game how you want it. Take some of MY time if you want, I'm not sure if that's even possible but I'll offer it up anyways :P
Until then I'll just look at the screenshots, close my eyes and make gun noises until the game hits shelves.:o

I hope they do the band of brother esque style. 4 on 4.

Well i think it would be cool if they had like 8v8 but really any number would be good for me:D
Sebaz

to econmize speed and stability on the servers I think 4 on 4 is a fair number. you can have 8 single players doin deathmatch. 4 on 4. four 2 player teams going at each other. So i guess the realm of doin whats best for both epic and its fans is 8 players max unless in furture they expand the maps .
Co-Op for 2 players right? I want to make sure.
If yes, why 2 players? I don't think 2 players are helpful, but oh well.
Sebaz

well i think they will do co-op for 2 players. but I hope this forum will create enough buzz for a band of brother esque style of a 4 on 4.

I hope they consider that option, it will only make the gaming 100x's better.

I agree cause that would be cool.
Yes, I agreed. Hopefully.

Live, people can even join your singleplayer game in the middle of a level
Only if the match was originally created as a Live match. Any match that is joinable via Live must be registered with it or the matchmaking service won't know about it.

So is GoW using a matchmaking system similiar to halo2, or is it user created servers?

4 vs 4 IMO, is better suited for this game. When you get 8 vs 8, alot of the time you are going to get people running into each other and not worring about tatics. You\'ll also have a ton of Chainsaw melee attacks.

You're right. 4v4 is perfect. It forces you to use tactics (if you want to win)

Not sure I understand the question. All Live games that you can find games for use the matchmaking service. The only way to bypass that is to use direct invites. I read somewhere that Halo took that a bit further by using their own matchmaking service, but I could be wrong there.
joeGraf

by using their own matchmaking service
Sorry that should read "by using their own ranking system to filter matchmaking results".
Will we have to host rooms in GoW MP or use Epic's servers like EA?
I'd like to know your answer if you answer my question.

I had a feeling I wasnt going to make sense.
I dont own a 360 nor have I played games online with it, so for me the only matchmaking system I know of is halo's, which is basically a list of "gametypes" you choose from (hardcore, rumble pit, team skirmish, etc) and then your matched with other players that want to play that same gametype. I believe I read somewhere that Xbox 360 was going to use a matchmaking system for all of their games, but I also remember hearing of games (PDZ comes to mind) which let players create rooms aswell as search through a list of rooms. Am I just confusing Microsoft's matchmaking system for live with halo 2's?
The main question boiling down to this: when I log in will I be able to choose a player created server that I want to go into (e.x: Unreal Tournament), or will I just choose a type of game I want to play and let a system choose 4-8 other random players to compete against (ex: halo2)?
Sorry for the long response.
EDIT: Did'nt notice the two replies.
