Do you reckon there will be an mp?

I hope so anyway.

Most games these days seem to be going down the singleplayer and multiplayer route these days and I think that an mp would be great, I'd be really disappointed if it was solely sp.

by **Survive.** » Sat Dec 01, 07 4:35 pm

I think they will...

If they would like the game to be popular more than they want it to, I say they should put MP in. Some people rather MP in games and SP, like me.

What about everybody else?

Is there a MP in Tomb Raider Legend? If not, the chance is quite small.

by **Psykorgasm** » Sat Dec 01, 07 5:16 pm

I doubt there will be, it'll just have a shit single player campaign.

Didn't Ion Storm write quite a bit of the netcode for DXMP? You guys are putting way too much emphasis on the engine. The engine is the foundation. The house they build on top of it is what matters.

by **Kaiden** » Sat Dec 01, 07 6:55 pm

But the size and quality of foundation also determines the limits of the house built on top! =D

All I'm saying is that Deus Ex turned out to be nothing like Unreal, and it used the Unreal engine. It's possible, even probable, that they'll modify it drastically.

by **Kaiden** » Sat Dec 01, 07 6:59 pm

Yeah, agree with you. =D

It is because Unreal has never supposed to be a sole FPS engine, they stress that they want everyone to use their engine. Especially with Unreal 3's psychics engine.

Harry Potter
Lineage 2
Mass Effect

They might be a golf game soon with the engine, thanks to a quick demonstation from a 20 minute edit with Marcus from Gears of War hitting a grenade with a pole.

And tbh, DX does feel like Unreal, just the way everything works.

by **Tonnochi** » Sat Dec 01, 07 8:36 pm

DX3 would be a fucking useless project without it.

by **James** » Sun Dec 02, 07 3:22 pm

Well we wouldn't say useless, we just know that they denied the best choice for their own reasons.

by **Tonnochi** » Sun Dec 02, 07 4:09 pm

They will have yet another sales disaster.

by **kBo** » Mon Dec 03, 07 2:43 am

Yeah, Deus Ex sold horribly with no multiplayer at the outset. :roll:

by **Psykorgasm** » Mon Dec 03, 07 9:02 am

Multiplayer doesn't mean shit to me when it comes to Deus Ex, I know you guys are a clan an all but when it comes to Deus Ex...it's all about the single player campaign, storyline etc etc.

Yeah, same here. Though I still hope for a MP version of the game lol.

by **James** » Mon Dec 03, 07 12:05 pm

I just hope if it does have a multiplayer, people play it. >_<

by **clyzm** » Mon Dec 03, 07 11:19 pm

I hope they actually finish the multiplayer & make it bug free this time if they DO decide to make it, and that we won't see DX3MTL or something.

by **James** » Mon Dec 03, 07 11:30 pm

People who made DXMP weren't working on the actual game, it was rushed because of this as a response to people actually making MP for it out of their own wishes.

This is why DXIW didn't have MP either, I think they aren't too fond on making DX a competitive game which I fully understand. Eidos might love it though.

by **{17}Ales** » Tue Dec 04, 07 5:06 pm

DX3 without MP will make it like a book, you just take it out of the library read it and take it back.

If DX3 had MP you would take it from the library read(play) SP then think "OH WOWZ I WANNA READ MOAR" you read MP and never take the book back to the library. (kk, warning you may get fines on this concept)

You don't realise how many times I've played through DX lol.

Buy the book, and read it over and over, and maybe some more

Hopefully it will, and hopefully, Eidos have seen this topic on the almighty A forum.

If it doesn't come with a map making tool.
MP will be repetitive :shock:

by **Tonnochi** » Wed Dec 05, 07 1:44 am

They probably think we've sunken in too much to the current DXMP. Idiots, we're fucking loose.

by **~UnwAnteD~** » Mon Feb 04, 08 2:42 pm

It clearly says on Edios ...

Multiplay = none

by **Kaiden** » Mon Feb 04, 08 6:34 pm

Link to prove that's not some random quote?

by **Tonnochi** » Mon Feb 04, 08 7:32 pm

Link.

I think we can confirm ourselves that there will not be multiplayer. They're leaving us in the dark.

If it is true it better be a good singleplayer. No Multiplay=Im not buying.

by **Icarios** » Tue Feb 05, 08 7:12 am

Dudes Alpha is smart, they could try making a MP mod if there is no mp.
Look no one expected Grand theft auto to be multiplayer, yet now they have multi theft .auto

by **~[R2K]D-BLOCK~** » Tue Feb 05, 08 9:35 am

It will be awhile for them to release if they could make one. I don't think they know the engine well.

Exactly the same thing I think.
I can't believe some of you guys play only the MP.

For me, MP is a way of replay value... getting more game hours etc...
But in Deus Ex you can get all the replayability from the single player, IMO
