What do you guys think of Pandora's multiplayer mode? It sounds sweet and may be reason alone for me to pick up this game.


Pfft, I never said that I wouldn't get it if the multiplayer sucked

I own it, and I would like to be the first to say IT FUCKING OWNS. The browser has a nasty bug that 1/2 the time it CTD's when you join, but once you're ingame, it's smooth. No lag, no crashes, no problems at all. SP also owns. I've been playing both all day.

Get it. For PC. Or you shall be eviscerated.

Why would I get the Xbox version? Xbox is for noobs.

The PC version is a lagfest, and the X-Box has the built in radio features (spies can hit mercnaries with spy bullets to listen to their communicator conversations) plus I get the built in global live friends list, so I picked up the X-Box version tonight. I'll let you all know how it is tomarrow, haven't had time to play it yet.

PC has a radio too. Plus I don't have an Xbox.

PC has a radio too. Plus I don't have an Xbox.Probably, but if the organized teams use TS 2, or something, you can't eavesdrop on them.

It has built in voice activated radio. With spy bullets and everything. And it's hardly a lagfest. I haven't said "WTFLAG" once the whole time I've been playing it.

I've been playing it _all_day_long_.

Yeah, with voice activated, there's no fighting it, because if your mic is plugged in, they can hear you. Atleast, I think there's no way to disable it.

I've only played as mercs so far, haven't lost a game yet. On the last one, one of them had grabbed my buddy and was lining me up, so I spammed him and my dead-meat buddy, too.

Loved the original SC, so I will more than likely pick up the sequel. I seriously doubt I will bother with anything but the singleplayer game though, I am getting sick of playing FPS games with prepubecents.

In multiplayer, there's four people. 2 people are Shadownet spies, like Sam Fisher, they sneak around and do shit. The other two are the Argus mercenaries, who obviously are like guards and better in combat. But the Shadownet people have flashbangs and stuff so they can run away. The Mercs have mines and "Spy Traps" which I guess are like some kinda alarm thingy.

EVERY SINGLE TIME (not half the time), IT CRASHES TO DESKTOP. I CANNOT FIND ONE GOOD SERVER.

Bliz's rules for NOT CTDing in the Demo.

DO NOT:

Use the quickfind game thingy.
Double Click on games to join. (Use the actual join button)
Attempt to join games that have a "0" ping.
Attempt to join games that are locked that you do not know the password to.


Using the above, you'll only get crashes every 1/6-7 or so times as opposed to 1/2 times.

Once you get in though this game is ultrasweet, if you're on the fence, download the demo and just be patient until you find a game.

Hmm... Demo multiplayer is easy. I'm owning almost everyone in either style. The trick is don't go through the pipes to get upstairs, go the other way, up the ladder.


Btw, am I he only one who noticed the Matrix Runnig up Walls trick?

Fuck. After overwriting a bunch of files in the directory, I notice that that's a fix for the DEMO, now I probably have to reinstall. Son. Of. A. Bitch.

To end a debate, PC Multiplayer has everything Xbox Multiplayer does with easier controls and no anual fee. The PC version is teh pwnage.

PS: Don't bitch about Multiplayer problems. The game has been out for two days. What few bugs it has will be patched out in no time. Unless you have it on Xbox....

What the hell is up? These people start their servers, then as soon as someone connects, they pull the plug! Buncha fucking commies.
