Week Six
Yeah, I'm a monkey. Stop asking.
Soooo, multiplayer, eh? It's the life blood in just about any FPS, so you've got to get it right. Hence why we've got a room with no windows, filled with playtesters - each of them looking more and more like they're anemic as the sleep deprivation takes hold. Peering over their shoulders, I've had a good look at the levels they're testing. My personal favorite has got to be the assault mission on the deck of the Land Carrier where the rebel team is trying to shut down the mantel defense grid. Ohmygod, I've totally given away the fact that we're doing a map on the deck of the carrier! How embarrassing! I suppose I could just delete it. Ohmygod! I haven't deleted it!
Anyhoo, I'm off to explain to the Free Radical bosses why I'm chatting away about our multiplayer levels in a tiny little blog that no one reads, instead of on some big-ass games website. The answer is, because I'm lazy. Goodbye.
