Ingen multiplayer i BioShock Infinite

Glæder du dig til BioShock Infinite? Det gør jeg også! Og efterhånden som vi nærmer os d. 26. februar, som både er spillets officielle udgivelsesdato og min fødselsdag, kommer der flere og flere oplysninger ud om spillet. Denne gang lyder det, at Infinite bliver en singleplayer-oplevelse. Med andre ord: Der kommer ingen multiplayer overhovedet. Ordene kommer direkte fra Ken Levine selv, som nogle af jer kender som designeren bag BioShock og medgrundlæggeren af Irrational Games. Det er dog ingen nyhed, at der ingen multiplayer er i Ken Levines spil.

Nu tænker du sikkert: BioShock 2 havde da multiplayer. Det er ganske rigtigt, men BioShock 2 blev ikke udviklet af Irrational Games. Det var blandt andet Digital Extremes og Arkane Studios, som stod bag BioShock 2, men med Infinite vender vi altså tilbage til rødderne. Om det er en god ting eller ej, at man udelukker multiplayer, er op til den enkelte at vurdere, men det ændrer intet ved, at jeg glæder mig rigtig meget til at spille Infinite!


English version:

Are you looking forward to BioShock Infinite? Me too! As we slowly approach February 26, which is the official releasedate of the game and also my birthday, more and more information about the game find its way to the surface. Today we learn that Infinite will exclusively be a singleplayer experience. In other words: there will be no multiplayer mode at all. The news come directly from the lead designer and co-founder of Irrational Games, Ken Levine, but no multiplayer in his games might not exactly be something new.

Now you're propably thinking: BioShock 2 had multiplayer. Yes it did have multiplayer, but that game wasn't developed by Irrational Games. The sequel was actually developed by Digital Extremes and Arkane Studios among others, but Infinite is an Irrational Games production and it seems that we're going back to the roots. I can't say if having no multiplayer mode is good or not, so I'll let you decide for yourselves, but it doesn't change the fact that I am absolutely looking forward to be playing Infinite!
