    Is it true that Call of Duty 2 only allows 8 players online?

    Rainbow six games The level design of these baby's is just perfect for team vs team, and the fact that one bullet kills and there is no respawn really makes these games the most intense and nervewracking multiplayer experience available. Do bear in mind, most of the players have been playing it for a long time, it takes at least 2 years to become somewhat proficient. It's a hard game to master.

    I guess OFP would beat that..

Let him not laugh too gladly when the water runs through his fingers, nor stand too silent when the setting sun makes red the veld with fire. Let him not be moved when the birds of his land are singing, nor give too much of his heart to a mountain or a valley. For fear will rob him of all if he gives too much."

    Also bloody great, but it didn't really start out well. When it was released the multiplayer was somewhat laggy, and the engine too much of a system hog. Most issues were fixed with resistance, but most people had moved on by then.

    OFP!!! Too bad there's a too small mp community. In fact I haven't played a single mp game of OFP, but it's the most awesometastic game I could think of for mp. Until OFP2 is released, there are really no realistic FPS games to speak of that could have a large community, but of those I've tried online, the Vietcong demo and the full version of Hidden and Dangerous 2 had quite interesting multiplayer modes and not a too small community at that time (I don't know now).

    Well.. We had a sort of community for pros that died a little while back.. It was really organised and fun.. The greatest game ever! Though, as for news about OFP2, all the staff who worked on OFP is now working on another game, that is Armed Assault 2.. So, basically, if you want the same experience you got from the awesome OFP, you should check AA2 (I don't know whather it's out or not.. Been a while since I checked up on it) rather than OFP2.

    If OFP: CWC had a simple multiplayer interface (I mean a lobby, etc..), I'm sure it would have been alive to the current day.. Too bad such a game got killed by such a small thing!

    The PC version of CoD 2 allows 64 max.

    Having said that, I don't enjoy CoD2 multiplay - it's too fast and "arcade-y". But that's just me.
