Before we get into today's news I want to make sure everyone has checked out all of the Unreal Ops Exclusive content we have had this week. First up we had -dp-'s Fatal Arts Interview then there was Lalli-Oni's first ever interview which was with the Organized Crime team. Now let's get into a subject some of you have been asking about ...Unreal 2 XMP What is it? Well XMP stands for eXpanded MultiPlayer mode. Here is what the old Unreal 2 has to say about it (thanks BU).In the new expanded multiplayer game, player teams will fight for control of planet surfaces and alien artifacts using nanotechnology replicators to build ever more sophisticated weapons such as automated gun turrets, force fields, sensors, recon and repair robots, and more. Players will choose one of three player classes at the beginning of play - class selection establishes a balance of speed, special abilities, armor, and firepower. All races, abilities, weapons, equipment, and tactics will have precedents in the single player game - but the expanded multiplayer experience brings everything together at the same time.This was one of the things that was left out that I thought would have separated this game from the rest of the pack. I had even brought this up with the team back at the Unreal 2 Media Day last November. It is good to see that they are indeed finishing it. I will definitely keep everyone informed with details as them come along |

Is there an ETA? I am really excited about this addition. This may be a sleeper hit that we all will be playing for sometime, at least I hope. |
