I was able to play a few rounds, and it is great. Some pretty intense moments can arise when you are suddenly being chased and enter into a pursuit of your own and try to kill your target without getting it yourself.

Was thinking the exact same thingAjimboB said:
The multiplayer bored me. Like... REALLY bored me. I found almost no skill involved. you walk REALLY slow towards your target and hope you get there before your own hunter kills you, or you run and rump on stuff, make yourself even MORE obvious, and hope evemn more that your own hunter doesnb't spot you before you now have found and chased down your target
I played until I got the disguise, then found it useless. it lasts about 5-10 seconds, and you have to HOPE that the person hunting you is REALLY close but not looking right at you while you use disguise (or it become obvious)
OK, I bought the game for the SP, and it is good. But the MP is some of the best I have played in a long time, but I can see how it would not be for everyone. It is not a type of MP for the run and gun brainless FPS's out there (not insulting you, but the level of grey matter required to play those is pretty low).
The MP is a game of stealth and strategy, more so than any other MP experience I have had. It is also a game of patience. It is a point based system (i.e. highest points wins the game) and I have spent 2-3 minutes sometimes tracking my target silently to get 1000+ points for the perfect kill, while the running morons on the map have gotten 4 or 5 kills for 100 points each. I am frequently in the top three and have the least amount of kills.
I welcome this type of gameplay. It really makes you feel like you either the hunted or the hunter (many times both).
To describe how the MP actually works (if it is helpful to you). The standard game is a free for all match. Every player has a unique model. The map is full of NPCs that look exactly like each of the players' models. Each player is given a target to assassinate and a radar shows you the general direction of your target, but it is vague. Your target is the only person you can kill (besides innocent NPCs). So your radar may lead you to an area that has 5 people that look like your target. You need to either study their movement, or see if one leaves and your radar changes, but you won't know which is which. You will also have people hunting you. So you have to keep your eye out for someone you think might be an assassin to kill you. If they are smart, you will never see them coming. And you need to know when to stay hidden and when to attack.
There are skills you earn through experince points that help you blend into the croud and hide, help you kill from a distance, help you escape an assassin and help you assassinate silently.
It is a ton of fun, especially with friends. I love telling a friend, "hey, look up" as they see me diving at them to stick a blade in their eye socket. Or as I say "do you feel alright", as I poisoned them 5 seconds ago and they slowly die.

No. Although I marvel at how you convinced yourself that such a post is logical and or necessary.thebridgetroll said:
