I dled the LP Multi demo first thing this morning and of course, fired it up second thing this morning.
The gameplay is fun, I so far dislike the lack of any apparent lifebar, I just dont know WHEN/if mechs are going to go down any time soon. Demi was also correct about the text, its pretty small just like DEAD RISING so finding your nemesis on the field takes some squinting.
Again, the gameplay rocks, everyone was using their grappling hooks to sling around -- a mech showed up, we teamed up to take it down yadda yadda yadda, lots of fun. I did notice some sort of bug maybe near a weapon pick up, my character sorta hunched and sat there for a period of time which was inconvenient since I was being shot at.
On the technical side there is an obvious issue with connecting to games found with the quickmatch browser. Half the time you get a 'match was cancelled' message, and half the time you get in. Once youre in there aren't any problems UNTIL the match ends and they decide that for some reason a splash screen after a match is a good idea and you see COMING SOON and a giant bug.
Well anyway I was then kicked back not to the lobby but to the MODE SELECTION SCREEN. I tried to start another run but the game I selected had been cancelled.
Demi had said the demo 'sucked' having played the euro one, but he NEVER ELABORATED even under torture which is...annoying. Point being the demo cearly has some issues which could be frustrating for some. Luckily I just decided to stop playing till later today and see how all of you fare lol.
Also XBL is doing a poor job advertising their next big titles multiplayer demo releases, even on the page where you acess demos there's a picture of some idiot band ive never heard of thats supposed to be edgy or wtfever. Youd think MS was trying to get out of gaming and into MUSIC TELEVISION.
