Will Crysis 2 feature split screen for guest accounts online?

Thanks,

I highly doubt it :(
The engine is a PC engine, hence it is coded for 1 person playing on 1 system, not 2-4 socialising in the sofa having fun. Maybe the next game, if Crytek focuses a bit more on consoles, but Crysis 2 is more of a PC game and hence console-features like splitscreen is not plausible.
To bad, since the console could handle it if coded, but I doubt the engine can.

A Splitscreen -mode doesnt belong in egoshooters for me...
if you guys really want to play splitscreen then go and play mariocart.

And Grumbledock its not a pure Pc engine anymore.. its simply a Cryengine 2(,5) that is working on consoles now due to its heavy scaling abilities.

I didnt want to offend you Aussie Raptor.
Its just my opinion and nothing you have to take serious ;-)
The Splitscreen mode is a creation from arcade games and really dont fit in my picture of
a Shooter that is supposed to come as an Esports compatible game.
