Please no multiplayer. Some games should stay single player.

BTW, why does "multiplayer" get underlined by spell check? I thought it was a common word.

BTW stories about surveys are garbage. The survey itself should be linked.

Also, this survey seems fake. There is no mention of EA at the start of the survey and it looks like something someone created at home.

The survey is genuine. Finish it and it takes you to their website. It was received in an email from EA.
Stop reporting it.

I finished the survey yesterday. Multiplayer wouldn't be bad if it's entirely different from the single player experience. Although they should just make the game really long so no one can complain about the game being short even on hard.

Zero G deathmatch would be interesting, and co-op would be really sweet. No matter how they play it, I can't wait for the next one. Dead Space is the best horror game I've played in years. A real gem in a dying genre.

the one in gears, but instead of locust, there should be those things from dead space.

next time just put more gameplay variety , like killing enemies with throwing them around, or throwing objects toward them , add some stealth.. or etc..

the first game was AMAZING , nice visuals ,great gameplay,BEST SOUND,scary atmosphere...

I used to hate EA, but after Dead space I thought that Im wrong.(atleast for now lol)

co-op would be great. Something like RE5 co-cop would work but I dont know if a versus mode would make any sense unless one team controls the monsters which would be pretty awesome if done correctly. I'd really rather they put in co-op. The game was pretty scary but once you were stacked to the teeth with weapons it was pretty hard to get scared after the initial jump factor then after that it's just saw blade to the face time.

I was late to the DEAD SPACE party and have only just finished it (love the 'Military Suit'!) and found it an excellent, atmospheric experience.

But as with UNCHARTED 2, I have to wonder how multiplayer would work. How do you get that level of atmosphere in a free for all? Would the shadows have to go? The lighting and the subtle music?
Take them away and a lot of what made the game so good (and uniquely 'Dead Space') is taken away.

Even co-op... It might work, as long as there's no AI partner when the option isn't used (please!!!)

Dead Space 2 just would probably benefit more from having a much longer story. Stretch it to 25 hours max so it ends up being 20-25 hours of insane tense gaming and you'll sell the game.

RE5 lost ALL horror. There is NONE in that game because of just co-op being present.(Of course Capcom didn't even try to make it horror with ambient sounds, or scares, or music, etc. I mean you go down a mine shaft with just a lantern for light and they didn't include creepy music/sounds, or quick flashes of zombies running by while you have that lil light around so only one person might notice it. Eff RE5)

If they do any type of MP in Dead Space they should just stick to simple survival type game types with up to 4 buddies and you try to survive as long as you can of increasing waves of Necromorphs. I don't need to be killing other Isaac's and hacking off their limbs, because based off of Dead Space 1 the controls wouldn't feel right in order for team death match stuff.

Either way Dead Space 2 will be one of my most eagerly awaited games once it's announced.

Co-op, multiplayer are not needed for every single game. Dead Space is fine the way it is.

What ever happen to the EPIC 1 player games??

OMG! Stop! This is just becoming stupid. Grow a set and keep it single player only. Quit complaining about multiplayer in a game you won't even be playing after a week.

Now mind you, I'm pretty new here, I'm even fairly new to this generation of gaming and I almost skipped the whole 6th generation (I had a Dreamcast). But why would anyone outright refuse multiplayer? Isn't multiplayer for most games considered a "bonus" of sorts? I've always thought of Online content in single player games as free stuff thrown on top of the main course?

So, if someone's giving out free stuff, I don't care if it's totally bad to me, I'll still accept it, even if I never use it........I can always not use it right?

So maybe a few of you could enlighten me as to why some people do NOT want multiplayer in every single game imaginable?

Multiplayer doesn't always make the game better as it's the quality of the game and not it's bells and whistles that get them sold. I know I don't base my decisions to purchase a game based on up to how many players can play at one time. It's all in it's appeal and games like dead space and uncharted have enough that it doesn't need MP.

I hear you in that the amount of players shouldn't and probably doesn't matter to most gamers, it certainly doesn't to me.

But I have made decisions on a couple games were 1 had an online mode and the other did not. Since they both carried similar scores, I chose the one with online multiplayer capabilities.
