My only concern is "What of the multiplayer / co-op" - Is it really as complicated as people are making it out to be?

I understand theres no lobbys - But how exactly does it work then?

Do you HAVE too have friends playing it- in order to drop in drop out?

Or can you "For example on Steam PC people" - Can you still select "servers" refresh, and join one of those games?

Its just becoming quite frightening how confusing people are making it all sound.

Co-op to me is most important/

I can't speak for the PC, but the 360 MP works, and it is pretty straight forward. The thing is unlike traditional MP on other FPS games you won't be guaranteed you won't have some bots in there to round out teams to 8 v 8. but when you just have a lone bot or two I have certainly not noticed anything wrong in their gameplay. That said I would not want to have 7 bots on my team against 8 humans. If you just want to jump in and play MP it is basic. If you want to set up specific parameters then the UI can be a little clumsy in my opinion.

Like most games, there are a few bugs that need to be worked out. Remember how many patches MW2 had in the first few months? Black Ops? GT5? SO I am fine with everything because I know that things are only going to get better. Cheers!

Sorry Guys I am PS3. . .

Thus far I am sticking with SMG dual wield. . .MOLOTOV seems a bit too powerful. . .scared to be owned with it on MP lol!!!!!
With the perks comes a feeling of control and when trying to achieve objectives. . .(Engineer perks help to capture enemy command posts faster, disarm enemy bombs faster) Solider seems to be the best way to start, getting tons of XP from simply throwing ammo out to team mates. . .
The back of the instruction booklet recommends to stay moving more than stay shooting. . .no joke on that point!!!!

I honestly feel that this game is everything I was expecting. GO AWAY COD/BF PEOPLE. THIS IS AN FPS REVOLUTION. SO PLEASE SPARE ME ANY COMPARISONS. AT THIS POINT. . .9/10 still. . .but remember this is all single player. I see how them mean seemless between SP and MP though. . .And I am loving my Mohawk with scars and stitches combo with a nice touch of "The warrior". . .

Watch out for enemy flanks. . .THESE ARE NOT AIM BOTS. Hmmmmm, wow oh wow I am way pumped up on this game. DLC for PS3 wont be available until network is back up. I did not pre order at wal mart but I still got the spec ops pack!!!!!!

Im on the ps3 and i must say that i am enjoying the time. Bots come in a group so lone wolf wont happen maybe in MP lone wolf might happen a little more. Dont like being the skinny dude but light wieght is the type i enjoy most. Cant waiit to try this on mp hope mp is up later in the week or being of next.

Light class simply does not always work in challenge mode for the 2 star challenges. You need to be able to take more damage so try medium or heavy.
