Poll: Quantum of solace multiplayer dying?

[XCoDslayerX]

I think that Quantum of Solace is a great game with a great singleplayer and multiplayer but recently I have had problems playing multiplayer for sometime now because nobody plays it sometime and now I think I am having second thoughts about buying the game instead of renting it sometimes but I want to know what you think about the game. Is it dying or not? what do you think?

There was a game mjade from the Bond-film, called 'Quantum Of Solace'?

Wow, you learn something new every day.

Honestly, this was the first I've even heard of the game. Might tell you something about it's popularity...

I suspect people are busy playing Minecraft, Magicka and League Of Legends. Not to mention Starcraft 2 - or Halo.

I absolutely LOVED that game. Unfortunately, I traded it in because it's had network problems from the beginning. I beat the single player, and you're right, I could almost never connect to, let alone complete, a multiplayer game. I liked everything about the game, the cover system, the weapons and how you purchased (and saved for) what perk/weapon combos you wanted.
Seriously, Treyarch absolutely dropped the ball with online support for that game.

This always happens with less well known online games. It really depends on how good the game is, TBH. Team Fortress 2, for example, (as in the 360 version) still has a load of people playing it, despite the fact that it's had none of the updates the PC version has had. Why? Because it's unique and extremely fun, and once you get past the "wtf y is ther no general machine gun class" (if you've been brought up on Halo and CoD, anyway) it's a fantastically unique and enjoyable experience. It's the same thing with Brutal Legend - despite the fact that the multiplayer was barely advertised and has a somewhat terrifying learning curve, once you get your head round it it's just so damn fun, and there really is nothing else like it.

So ask yourself this - is the multiplayer for Quantum of Solace a cheap, tacked-on extra (like Bioshock 2's multiplayer) or is it a hidden gem with a lot of potential for depth? That should answer how long it will live for - maybe not as a hugely popular thing, but if it's any good it will most likely retain a fanbase for a long time.
