Is the 2nd multiplayer beta going to be the last taste of multiplayer before the release, or are you going to do a multiplayer demo as well?
Click to expand...

There's some confusion in the wording.

MP Demo = "2nd MP beta"

they are one and the same, but it should really be called a demo.

Some tiling there in the last pic but I am sure at the speed the train is moving you won't notice. Looks great.

I can't wait to get back into the MP Beta - I stayed up for many days until 6am playing this awesome game. Graphics, Animation and the Gameplay were just so spot on.

Did we ever get an answer for a kill "chirp chirp" in MP? I must have it.

This please, arne. Also, being able to take screenshots from the SP mode (I know it's been confirmed for MP).

That would mean each person only played an average of 18.6 minutes total. I just don't believe that anyone could put the game down that fast.

Yeah, 18.6 minutes total during 21 days isn't really that much. Not sure what to think about this. I had a blast during the beta, I really can't believe that the average is so low. Maybe this 130k number includes all the beta vouchers that were given, so maybe some of them weren't used or something.

18.6 minutes during 21 days doesn't seem right.

Wonder if it's counting multiple PSNs, it would make sense.. plus you have to remember there are a lot of people out there, not everyone who gets the beta plays it, some barely touch it, but nearly 20 minutes on average is damn good IMO. Also the 24 hour lock was a bitch, a friend of mine barely played it because he was so impatient that he couldn't wait the time and ended up deleting it... I know.

Ah the nitpicking begins. The math methodology is incorrect -- you're assuming that we had 130k concurrency throughout the entire beta when that is not the case.

That would be awesome, so of course they can't use it. Pretty sure SCEA's marekting department is contractually obligated to suck absurd amounts of dick.

How much dick is an absurd amount? Just wondering.

Check the FM3 thread, that should give you a clue on what is an absurd amount. (sorry if you don't get it).

Original resolutions of these images are 2560x1440 , why ?..

Because they're destined for print media, I'm assuming. Magazines always get screenshots in insane resolutions.

Would be awesome if they gave a nod to Insomniac and Guerrilla for all the tech they shared and have there be unlockable weapons like the Bullseye which would be a re-skinned AK47 and the M-82 which would be a re-skinned FAL. I think that would be pretty cool.
