"We did the single-player demo after launch," Hines continued. "We had showed off the multiplayer, but we hadn't managed to show as much of the single-player. So giving folks the chance to try it… well it turned out to be a good idea."
Until they showed the single player elements of this game, I was actually worried for it.
So Im glad they put some effort into it, and decided to show the single player aspects as well. Was weird they only showed multiplayer mode the first many times they showed anything from the game. Id argue that single player is this games main strength. That and how much polish & optimisation went into it.
Hope they do another, same concept.

Sad state of afairs when they are surprised anyone enjoys single player...

^ this, its kinda a odd statement, sad really.
| The Fury said: It seems more CEOs and higher ups are saying this about games. Sometimes I wonder exactly how much in the know/how right people like Jim Sterling are when he talks about how they (higher ups in the industry) thought consoles were on the way out or no one cared about single players games or people want a certain style of gameplay. This guy proves it, he was worried that a primarily single player game which plays like what the franchise is known for might not succeed. If the game is good it's good, no matter the gameplay style. |
^ this. It needs saying.
