So i just got done playing a 2 hour session in MP with Skills, Plarom, Omagnus, Tails, Dark nation,and some randoms. Shit was epic as hell. The crazy thing about it is that there was little to no lag at all and no pop-ins at all.
First I played a game of Cop n Crooks when there was only 4 of us and it was pretty awesome. the first round begin with me and dark nation as the criminals with DN being the boss. Plarom and Skills caught up to us in the police car where we proceeded to destroy them with our pistols. We then drove around to the escape boat where plarom and Skills had camped out and eventually sniped Dark nation right as he was about to leave on the Boat. the second round we flanked skills and Plarom and prompty destroyed em.
Cop n' Crooks while being an awesome gametype. Doesn't seem to really be suited for a small party, it's tailor made for basically 8 vs 8 and I cannot wait until everyone gets a copy and we end up doing a full 8 vs 8.
Also played about an hour and a half of Free roam which is just fullblown amazing and probably the best MP experience i've had in ages. The phone implementation is awesome as well. You can basically use the phone to set up on the fly private chats with anyone on the party and it leads to making some sneaky alliances and what not.
Most of the action this session took place around the Airport where we all kept trying to use the helicopters and the rockets. The only complaint i really had about free roam is that it seemed to be an open lobby and one douchebag random joined and was basically a dick, but at least you can use the phone to message everyone playing that you think " so and so should be kicked " which us doing so, led Plarom to quickly boot the dude.
Overall, the MP actually suprised the hell outta me and is alot better then i expected. I can without doubt say that i won't stop playing this game for a long time.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
