Been looking forward to this game for a while Kaos Studios have given me some great multiplayer experiences in the past (Battlefield: Desert Combat Mod for Battlefield 1942). Ive played the single player one and that wasnt bad, however these games were never designed to be single player games (much like the battlefield series). Might have to check this out.

well i thought the single player had no story to it you just had to take places lol

Thats the idea, its got a story but thats the basis of the game. Anyone who has played the Battlefield series will be familiar with the way it works (some of best multiplayer games around).

Remote Controlled bombs and attack choppers, wouldnt call them toys

Battlefield series was one of my all time favourite series, had so much fun on those games over the years. Shame the consoles get watered down versions (as usual) as the PC versions were 64 Player on huge maps and were amazing games.

Battlefield Bad Company is on the way after numerous delays yeah, however on console the maximum players i would imagine will be 32. Consoles just havent been able to do as many players online in one game as PC's yet and i dont think they will for some time yet.

MMO games are a different thing as its obvious they will have more than 32 players otherwise they wouldnt be MMO's.

[cometojames]

Exception being with MMO games of course but they arent common place on consoles anyway really. Get more and more these days but still arent commonplace yet, most do poorly sales wise on consoles.
