Aliens vs. Predator MP Demo Released Early

Though it was revealed today that SEGA planned its release for tomorrow, the Aliens vs. Predator multiplayer demo has been listed on Steam a bit earlier than expected, and is available now for download.

[Letros]

Dloading now, time to take the 5850 for a ride.

[darkmurder]

Hopefully it's fun

[Obama]

I got the same video card as you XD

[TheIneffableBob]

Unfortunately, DX9 only in the demo.

[Letros]

I would have figured the Commander in Chief to be running 2x 5970

[Obama]

sure if you are willing to spare me some CHANGE.

[sak500]

i have Asus EAH5870 havnt used it much except running 3dmark 06 and still no dx 11 games. Maybe bf3 will put me back on pc gaming till then all games i'll get for 360

[mal_tez92]

I run every game with max settings and always get 60+ FPS with no slowdown.

[dirthurts]

It's a shame no DX11 on the demo, but that just means we get more of a treat when the actual game is realease. : )

[Bathyj]

Does everything have to Multiplayer?

I was so looking forward to this demo dammit.

[Letros]

says multiplayer demo on the steam description

edit-err, i misread your post, thought you asked "does it even have multiplayer" sorry lol

[vickers500]

Does everything have to have single player?

[Bathyj]

You used your one bubble for that?

How can anyone value your imput, when you yourself dont?

[Nikuma]

The big selling point of AvP is the multiplayer so it's pretty common sense to have a MP demo.

Oh and WOOT DLING NOW!

[Bathyj]

My point was, every shooter gets a MP demo or a beta.

Some of us still like SP games. Story, characters, set pieces.

Its not too much to ask for a SP demo now and then, especially when such a rich licence, based on movies filled with tension and atmosphere.

But MP wins out everytime because we need more deathmatch, deathmatch, CTF, deathmatch.

[JBaby343]

Can we please have more SP demos? MP to me is just bonus in a game after I beat it. With the exception of Warhawk of course.

P.S. It's pretty obvious why vickers only has one bubble.

[dirthurts]

It's the first thing I play. I love a good story, the massive environments, exploring, boss battles, etc.
While multiplayer is nice to have, as it extends the replay value of a game to great extent I just love my single player. I too wish more games included it. I guess maybe the download sizes are getting too big for SP.

[steve30x]

@2.2 Where are you getting the idea that everything has single player? Theres a lot of MMO games coming out soon. I myself rather single player games but thats the way I am

[DeathMetal]

Considering I just got it off steam and there is no one to play with

[dukegodtezza]

[dukegodtezza]

[mrbillybadass]

also the demo is only dx9, whereas the full game is dx11...so dont wry pc gamers...also final game is a 18 player limit...10 more than the demo

[Obama]

Going to try it on pc but going to buy it on the ps3.

[BrokenAnarchy]

I'm trying to download it now, but every time I press Install Demo on Steam nothing responds =( Every other game/demo works fine when I do it..

[VanHalen]

Really, you f@ckin dumb @ss? Is your brain fried or somethin? it was this high at 9%? you stupid mentally challenged moron!!!

[dirthurts]

A different web browser, or by downloading directly via the steam program, see if that works.

[Nikuma]

Oh em gee, more people need to get this dled... taking forever to find a game.

[Letros]

SEARCHING FOR GAMES, SEARCHING FOR GAMES, SEARCHING FOR GAMES...

Going to bed will try tomorrow, haha

[Ninjamonkey82]

As Letros said no ones playing yet ffs.

[bc_jeffro]

[champ21]

[hakis86]

1253MB

[bc_jeffro]

fun being the alien marine is hard have not been pred the demo is only DX9 but the full game will be DX10 and DX11 sweet...

[RaphaCWB]

Thanks for the info, downloading now ^^

[da305kratos]

played it at 2 am last night, needed more people but this is the demo limited to 8 so yea...

hated that it was dx9, easily put everything at very high with vsync and the other setting on and never dropped below 65 on my hd5750....

not buying till i try it in dx11....other than that, i loved playing as the alien!

[Garrison]

As always with steam, very fast download, got a 4870 that ima gonna play this in

[BX81]

I down loaded the demo this morning for the 360 am I the only one not as impressed as they thought they would be? I can't stand that annoying radar bleep for the marines and the match making took forever. IDK about this one I'm going to try it a couple of times more before I pass judgement but I skipped pre ordering bioshock 2 so I could get this. I might have to change my mind.

[dirthurts]

Am I the only one who couldn't figure out how to sprint?
Anywho, if felt a little slow to me. And lack of down the sights aiming for the marines put me off...
There doesn't seem to be a way to use the predators firing attacks either.
