Ehh... To be honest I was hoping for at least one competitive mode. I've never been a fan of any type of horde mode, and the single player mode seems like it can get very repetitive. I can't really judge it at this point as I haven't played, or even seen the multiplayer in action yet, however this was a kind of let down for me. Hopefully there's a lot more to come because I can't see myself playing these modes for too long before moving on.

This is actually pretty much a let down. A lot of the people keeping up with this forum are abandoned UT fans hoping for another game to play. Without including a competitive gametype, you will pretty much be losing a lot of potential players, whom pc wise make up a large percentage.

Without having an online competitive gametype, such as basic tdm or ctf, you are pretty much eliminating the possibility of clans or groups from forming up. That is what keeps games going: the community, irc, and competitive ladders. The horde concept may intrigue some, but others will just keep playing l4d2. Hopefully they can implement some form of DM.

Even though I'm more of a Singleplayer sort of player (and didn't plan on touching the Multipayer aspect), this really doesn't seem like anything much and I can understand people's letdowns and disappointments here. But all of the multiplayer hasn't been revealed yet so there may be a chance that there's a deatmatch mode in Bulletstorm, as well as some new Multiplayer modes yet to be revealed.

[Milky Pirate]

To be honest I wasn't expecting a competitive gametype. I couldn't really see how the single player gameplay could translate to multiplayer.

I'm not a big horde fan but the mode described int he article sounds really fun. Especially how on some enemies a specific skillshot is required to take them down.

[azurescorch]

The mode allows you and up to three different friends taking on continuously spawning waves of enemies in close quarters.

I am reminded of Zombie mode from codw@w and blackops. Only that was an extra option... Not the main MP.

MP sounds kind of meh and cheap to me. Not that it matters, I'm looking forward to this game for the single player.

Fully agree. Sounds quite dull honestly. And Echo Mode? That doesn't even sound like multiplayer to me.
hoards get boring very quickly. L4D for example Co-op mode was fun. But nothing compared to vs and into of survivor modes never really kept me at it like vs did.

[DocBrownsCrazyHair]

Wow. What a let down.

[Uday23]

I'm sure there are a few more unannounced modes...

[DAN8 KFM]

Some news is better then no news!

I would like to play it before I judge the game modes. The way this game looks idk if competitive online would work as well.

[-Raven-]

Sweet. I really didnt wanna see a competitive MP in this game.

But uhhh, wheres the Multi-player aspect in Echo mode?

[Proexxkill]

Bahhh.....i will try it, but if its not competitive it will not entertein me that much!...i want UT4!!!!!!:p

[Uday23]

Gears 3 and Bulletstorm for 2011, so maybe UT4 in 2012/13.

I never buy a game based on multiplayer modes, so this was never going to make or break it for me. If anything, I'm glad, because hopefully they've had more time to focus on the campaign.

If it has a decent MP then great, but not at the cost of the single player experience.

[Flak]

Lots more news coming! :)

[DAN8 KFM]

Lots more news coming! :)

When might that be?

[Flak]

Dan8 Hi :D

I can only say soon :p

[Uday23]

lol there better be some news soon b/c the game comes out in a few months. I can't wait to see some MP footage, and more crazy weapons!:D

On a side note, Flak are you a member of Combat Testing b/c someone on their forums has your user name.

[Just Cause]

Sounds ok to me. I am sure there will be at least a TDM gamemode or similar albeit with an Epic twist on the theme.

[DAN8 KFM]

Dan8 Hi :D

I can only say soon :p

Soon as in this month or soon as in Jan??????

I'm sure there will be more modes. Everyone calm down!! I think a horde type of mode is really necessary for this type of game and I'm glad they have it. You know there will be competitive modes to so just chill. I'm just glad we finally have some news on this!!

[Ultima12]

I can't wait to see some footage on this. I'm a huge Horde mode fan. I always play that kind of stuff. There's just something really fun about getting on with your buddies and competing for kills and seeing how far you can get.

I hope they have some good competitive modes too.

me too! and if you think about it Bulletstorm's skillshot system could add a whole new dimension of fun to killing waves of enemies. I also like the idea of custom weapon load-outs before the match (each team member can play a different role), other horde modes don't usually do that.

Yeah, it'll be interesting to see how it all works. Looking forward to some new videos.

The video was cool but still not much info. If that's all they're doing for multiplayer it will be kind of a let down. I doubt it though....

One of my biggest concerns is that they're putting too much emphasis on the skill shots system. It's great for the single player but if they put it in every mode the game ends up having then it will get old real quick. I don't know. I guess we'll see.

[wireman]

So I'm thinking that we're all under the same impression. That if we all had the whip it would be just chaos. From the look of it, when you use the whip it slows down time on the enemy.

So i pose this, make the whip like quad damage. Everyone fight to get to that one over powered weapon but at the same time "normal" deathmatch can still continue.

if anyone has any other cool ideas please post them because it gives hope to others, that they might just make a deathmatch mode for this game. I know for me previous posts gave me hope.

I am really keen to play this game but am a heavy online player and if it's some left for dead bull**** I'm probably just gonna download a cracked version, Lampooning the company because they lampooned me.

Thanks all and remember, it's just binary. On, off.

I totally agree with you. Firefight, Horde, and Nazi Zombies all bore me really fast.
