I'd much, much, much rather see a co-op mode. Co-op with difficulty set to max would be great, even if it doesn't make a lot of sense story-wise.

I can't see Bioshock as being a very good deathmatchy game.

I wonder how they are going to balance it, if they give everything to everyone then it is just going to be a grenade fest. If people have to pick up stuff, the first guy who gets a good weapon get destroyed. I don't see a good way for this to work.

That would be awesome. I love co-op games.

I agree, if feels too 'heavy' for deathmatches.

Isn't that kind of how Quake 3 free for all works?

I would much prefer co-op too.

No, the person who cleans up in Q3 is the one who controls the armour and health powerups. Enough of the weapons are lethal enough that there's no way to dominate all the strong weapons (railgun/rockets/lightning).

relatively old news, but nice video. i too and wondering how they're going to balance it. especially if there are multiple game modes, like sploicer vs sploicer , CTS (capture the sister), or an all sploicer vs big daddy type.
either way definitely getting on release day.

Haven't watched it yet b/c I'm watching this

http://www.spike.com/full-episode/halo-3-odst/33742

It has ODST info along with Bioshock 2 info.

I'll edit in a little.

EDIT: It's the same vid, except the ODST new.

It looks pretty cool, but IDK if it'll be balanced.

I got the impresion that you would customise your character with abilities you want and are limited to a certain amount. Or something along those lines.

I agree completely Echo. Co-op would be great, but it might be a bit tricky to implement what with scripted events and such.

I really hope it isn't like Far Cry 2's Multiplayer. I hate when developpers feel they need to slap on a multiplayer for the game to be sufficient. If they'd taken the time they used to make the multiplayer to make a couple more unique areas in the Single Player game, I'd say that would be more than a fair trade-off.
