Yes, I saw that too. Peter M said that Fable 2 will indeed have online, but he wouldn't say how and the features of it

Has ANYONE played Monster Hunter? Or should I explain the multiplayer in that?

I agree, it would be cool for my assasin friends to join in and help me steal some **** and get a baddie down

Basically, in Monster hunter, you get normal quests, but there are also guild quests, which you can choose to do offline or online.

Hmm. I guess. But where would you get all the monsters from?

It'd be interesting if you could marry another player. Although the kid thing would be weird.

Edit: After rewatching the trailer, I get the monster part.

Well Lionhead were advertising for a programmer with "experience in multiplayer gameplay" the job has since been filled so the advert obviously isn't on their site anymore. This is a bit of a hint towards Xbox Live! gameplay, don't you think?
I'm hoping for an Arena style battle, one on ones and maybe a few co-op quests. I don't want anyone wandering around my Albion though, ruining the my towns and villages.

Thats an interesting find, and i didnt know that they had advertised such a job... interesting indeed +Rep

I was trying to find the exact wording that Lionhead used to advertise the job. I'll post it when the other Fable 2 forum comes back online. I'm suprised you guys didn't already know about this. It could be for another game Lionhead have in the works but chances are, it's for Fable 2.

Yeah its new to me and we havent missed much but have to say personally that info passed me by, dont know about anyone else here... but thanks for looking for the article etc.

There is a good bit of coding in TLC on online play From COOP heroes that you can find in Fable Explorer(there are four of them) to Live aware in the credits.

PM said that the online feature was VERY important. I think we can bank on there being one but what form it will take is a mystery.

Well if fable 2 is able to play xbox live i hope its like a mmo but with fable"s style. It would be awsome killing npcs with my freinds or killing other players tradeing with them. I hope fable 2 will be able to go on xbox live.

Eagle Est1986 · 02-26-2007, 10:36 AM

Oh god no! A mmo wouldn't suit Fable. To have that style in a mmo would be quite good. But Fable is all about the game being what you make it, no what a million other people make it. I think that it should be very strict and not allow another player too much freedom in your Albion. Maybe a separate quest line for co-op and the arena thing. IMO, there shouldn't be anymore than that.
