    well the game is finally coming within 2 days here so i was just thinking about multiplayer. the sp gave a nice idea of what the game will flow like but i want to know for people who PLAYED the multiplayer beta or anything of that sort just how good is it? i heard there is a steep learning curve ( www.ign.com) but just how fun is it? im really hooked on call of duty 4 right now, but if this game is anything like single player in multiplayer then im gonna buy this for sure. any info would be appreciate ;)

    The multiplayer is what is going to make you want to buy the game. The single player is probably only worth going through once, but the multiplayer will keep you going back.

    I still like playing the MP Beta... its freakin fun to run people over (what I'm known for ;)) and set up mine/claymore traps (another thing I am known for).

    Although some abuse the cloak and hide in remote parts of the map to snipe.

    is there a lot of team play or solo movement? is the multiplayer just like the single player in terms of performance and graphics? how many people play in one map?

    the multiplayer mode (Power Struggle) definitely requires intense teamwork and communication (through built in teamspeak or hotkey commands) the whole time to take a position, defend it, or move on to another position.

    the graphics and gameplay in multiplayer is the same as the single player, although you probably cannot grab their throats and throw them... too bad.
