Now, I wouldn't call this my actual 'Review,' but I'm just gonna fill everyone in on the Basics of MP and just the game in General. On to MP first:
Game Modes
-Deathmatch: Obviously Every-Man-For-Themself. You can get a game of a max of 8 players and each player is allowed to change their in-game Model in the Pre-Game lobby, that's it. You would be able to select your weapon, however, you go find them in whichever map you play at. As plain and simple as that.
-Team Deathmatch: Same exact thing as above, just with an SUV [SCU] Team and an Influenced Team.
-Bum Rush: Ugh, my least fayvorit... But the concept of this Gametype is 2 SUV's against 6 Influenced (or Bums as I call 'em). That's only the case however whenever you make it a full game. It can also range from 2-SUV against 2-Influenced, and also 2-SUV vs 4-Influenced, but no matter what, whenever the game's full, you can only have 1 or 2 SUV's at once. Anyway, onto the Gametype. The point of this game is another simple one; the SUV's need to survive whatever the Time Limit is set for. How do they do that? Well, at first, the SUV's have guns, while the Bums have either a Brick, Pipe, and some others that can't come to mind now. As for the SUV's the only guns I've seen them use is an Assault Rifle. And after that ammo is used up, SUV's have to run around and scavenge for Weapons to fight the Bum Horde back for the remaining time. Now here is my pet-peave with this gametype - the SUV's are SUPER strong. While the Bums are... you know... normal. And all I've really experienced with that gametype was the SUV's camping in a corner, one-shotting each and every one of the 6 Bums and then grabbing a Shovel and one-hitting each and every one of us. I still have yet to be on the SUV's team for a Bum Rush game, but I'm sure once I am, I'll give back some of the frustrations that I've had to go through. The SUV's only have one life while the Bums have an infinite number of lives.
-Crime Scene: And now for my most fayv gametype that what MAKES MP for this game. Ok, the concept for this game is theirs two teams [SUV / Influ]. The SUV's are on the 'Attacking' side while the Influ are on 'Defense.' Now the point of this is the SUV's need to use their Spectrometer to find the Location of two 'coolers.' What's inside the coolers? Heads. "Human" Heads. And if you get a decent amount through the SP, you'll recognize the Heads ;) Anyways, while the SUV's are trying to use their Spectrometers to 'SCAN' the Evidence in the Coolers, the Influ need to place the Coolers wherever they can and Defend them with their life. Oh yea, forgot to mention this, everyone has one life. So once you're Dead, you done for the Round. Now, in this gametype, in the Pre-Game Lobby the SUV's can choose between a Pistol, with 18 Rounds, or a Shotgun, with 8 Shells (but you only have 4 Shells in the gun at one time so you get one reload out of it), while the Influ can choose between a Drive Shaft, Brick, Molotov Cocktail, Sledgehammer, or an Emitter. If you don't know what the Emitter used for, you can stick it to a wall to Jam the SUV's Spectrometers, and the only way it stops is when the SUV's find it and destroy it by whacking it or throwing something at it. The great thing about this gametype is that it's a blast no matter which team you're on. I prefer the Influ only because you literally can scare the Bajeebus out of people by staying in the shadows near your Cooler. For example, on the map Underground, I was on the Influ and we had one Cooler in the corner of this big room. Thing is though, the room only had light in the center while it was pitch black on all the corners. So my teammates and myself waited in the corners and there was a Single SUV that came into the room. Next thing you know, three Influ, one was a Pig, another a Clown, and a guy in a Skull Mask, all Sprint at the guy at once and simultaneously smack him with their respective weapons. It was THEE funniest thing I've seen in that game yet. And what makes it better, we did it to two other SUV's in the same Round. Thing is though, if you don't have an organized team, you'll fall almost instantly. This gametype is about teamwork, not Ramboism.

For whoever actually READS all of that, I thank you and hope that this Epic Novel actually helps people who don't have the game out on what they want to know about Con2's MP.
