wise devs. just for this alone i'll check the game out.

velocitygamer5617d ago

Same here. I'd like to see this game kick cods ass.

Dazel5617d ago

Now how about testing them with a nice little beta??? ;op

tdrules5617d ago

LOL
there is a beta
i'd know...

NobleRed5617d ago

Everything that I hear about the game sounds like the devs are really putting effort into the game.

Not like other devs that release shitty ps3 versions with buggy multiplayer( Treyarch/Black Ops btw)

AKissFromDaddy5617d ago (Edited 5617d ago )

Don't hype it up yet. A beta is still highly recommended seal of approval.

PS. Nice Treyarch hit.

Ducky5617d ago

... Trey sounded like they were putting effort into the game too. =/

If you live in America or Europe... everywhere else where servers aren't provided, P2P usually gives the lowest latency

Sorry but no. If there is no local server, I'd rather play with someone locally on a P2P basis.

700+ms (on a good day) latency vs 50-100ms... it's really a no brainer.

Some places don't have the luxury of 1st world infrastructure, and when your country is supposedly supported by Xbox Live and there's no sign of local server support, it becomes a stuff up.

pr0digyZA5617d ago

? thats new I thought servers are provided to everyone. I live in SA the lowest part of Africa and we have tons of servers for each game. And each server giving very good pings.

OpiZA5616d ago

I wasn't specific, sorry. I'm talking about the 360 version, as for SAIX servers and what not, those are fantastic for PC gaming.

Even though Live is now official in SA, there are no signs of dedicated gaming servers that I've seen.

tdrules5616d ago

dedicated servers for what 360 game?
the absence of dedicated servers does not make them worse than p2p

dukegodtezza5616d ago

agree opiza i live in perth the most isolated capital city in the world and i use my 100 friends all from the perth area p2p a must 4 me

The multiplayer in Homefront was actually really fun.

Devs Share Personal Touches They've Hidden in Games

Last week game dev Steve Thornton took to Twitter to ask: fellow devs, have you ever slipped something into a game you're working on that's just for you? The replies are well worth a read.
