Basically, it's Left 4 Dead in Space. It's objective based multiplayer. Humans vs Necromorphs.

Looks really great.

Was hoping for a YT link.

 

[Alucrid]

Eh. I'm fairly indifferent about this. As long as the SP delivers I'm fine.

 

[ezekial45]

Was hoping for a YT link.

It was just uploaded right after the episode finished.

[Jerk]

No females for MP?

 

[Olivero]

Our very own codecow was in that video!

 

[SolidSnakex]

No females for MP?

One of the necromorphs that you can play as is female.

 

[Kuran]

That looked awkward.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

That was awesome! Great use of 'Glasgow Mega-Snake', plus I saw Codecow and Papoutsis in there. Awesome trailer. Definitely gonna try out the MP now.

 

[TheFury]

Interesting. A versus mode playing as/against Necromorhps could be pretty fun.

 

[Concept17]

Looks L4D'ish. Count me in.

 

[ConradCervantes]

Looks cool. I'll give it a whirl.

 

[TOM f'N CRUISE]

cool, im in

 

[subversus]

looks too slow

 

[sykoex]

I'm surprised they didn't go the RE5 route and make the whole campaign be co-op. This mode looks like it'll be awesome regardless.

 

[codecow]

No disrespect to the people who made the trailer but, as usual, the people who make stuff like scripted MP trailers do not understand what MP gamers really want to see. Very little if anything really is shown about how it actually plays from that footage.

Hopefully in the very near future we'll see some raw footage.

Short version, the game itself destroys the trailer.

 

[sixteen-bit]

do not want

neat music though

 

[geoffmk]

Lots of raw MP footage in the GTTV episode, which will be up around 1 AM pacific.

 

[ezekial45]

I'm surprised they didn't go the RE5 route and make the whole campaign be co-op. This mode looks like it'll be awesome regardless.

I'd be very pissed off if they did that. Forced co-op is one of the worst things to come out of this gen.

 

[The Praiseworthy]

Actually... i liked it, a lot!

I can see myself playing the MP and enjoying the hell out of it.

 

[codecow]

Stupid DirecTV cut off my show during Scott's interview but I didn't see any footage with UI in it.

 

[Teknoman]

Shocking! Didnt see this coming, but more co-op modes separate from the main game are welcome.

 

[Max]

Multiplayer in Dead Space whaaaaaaaaat?

 

[sixteen-bit]

Multiplayer in Dead Space whaaaaaaaaat?

has been known for some time

 

[Dresden]

I'm surprised they didn't go the RE5 route and make the whole campaign be co-op. This mode looks like it'll be awesome regardless.

temptation to quote tag rising!

That would have been awful!

 

[ezekial45]

Multiplayer in Dead Space whaaaaaaaaat?

It actually works pretty well. It complements the main story, and at the same time it can stand on it's own (hopefully).

 

[stupei]

I'd be very pissed off if they did that. Forced co-op is one of the worst things to come out of this gen.

Especially in a setting that's meant to creep you out.

 

[Visualante]

Mogwai, good choice. It'd be nice to get a demo.

 

[Max]

News to me. It looks alright... L4DS

 

[Teknoman]

Now to hope the PC version uses Steam for match making and not some crazy gamespy stuff.

 

[Anton Sugar]

Still disappointed at how generic and "un-scary" the monster kids are.

 

[No_Style]

Neat addition. Not sure how or why everyone is in that engineer suit though. Do they not bring space marines onto these missions? Yes' I'm asking for space marines.

 

[Square Triangle]

Needs a YT link, So I can see!

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Neat addition. Not sure how or why everyone is in that engineer suit though. Do they not bring space marines onto these missions? Yes' I'm asking for space marines.

Didn't look like some sort of mission... just a bunch of engineers stranded trying to survive.

 

[Teknoman]

According to GTTV, they are security suits. So they can be space marines, just using suits built off rig tech.

EDIT: Yup Sprawl Sec. Team.

 

[Square Triangle]

Okay this does look pretty damn fun with some friends, they might just make this MP addition "Uncharted 2 okay" :lol

 

[Nirolak]

Looks great.

 

[Femmeworth]

The necromorphs seem a bit underpowered.

 

[Bradach]

i like it!
I haven't played L4D so this style of multiplayer will be new to me. can't wait!

 

[classicdms]

The song is actually Glasgow Mega-Snake. One of my favorite songs from one of my favorite bands. So very good.

If it feels right, I could get just as addicted to this as I did with Left 4 Dead. Consider me excited.

 

[Dascu]

I was hoping the human-controlled Necromorphs would've been unique. Looks like they're just the same as the regular ones.

 

[Visualante]

Now to hope the PC version uses Steam for match making and not some crazy gamespy stuff.

It won't.

 

[Dandy]

Looks sick, I'm soooo down for Dead Space 2.

 

[Saty]

Graphics sure took a beating for the MP - looked like the first game. L4D-esque gameplay but doesn't see that hot. I wonder if players are going to be pissed getting stuck in statis every time.

 

[WickedLaharl]

in theory i like what they're going for here but unless the NM have very different play-styles i don't think it'll be all that great.

one of the best parts about versus in L4D is in how you set up traps using the various strengths and weaknesses of a given SI loadout.

hopefully a similar setup is achieved in DS2.

 

[JimiNutz]

Looks better than expected, I'll def give it a try.
Awesome Mogwai track in the trailer too

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Looks better than expected, I'll def give it a try.
Awesome Mogwai track in the trailer too

Name of track?

 

[UFRA]

:/

Personally I'd rather it just be a SP-only game, but I just won't bother with MP, so those who want it can enjoy it all they want. I'll buy it just for the SP.

 

[Xater]

Left4DeadSpace

Yep an I have absolutely no problem with that. Looks cool.
