There were actually people at the MLG forums who said Bioshock 2 will have better multiplayer than AvP. :/ But they'll likely change their minds when they see MLG is supporting the game.

wow, those are the tips from the "pros"? LOL looks like they should be taking tips from us "average" players. Here's one: use your flashlight as a LAST RESORT. Do not keep it on at all times, especially when fighting other humans as it gives your position away. Some how its brighter to the other players than it is to you. Its better to train your eyes to see enemies without it if you can.

Those were tips? At most it was just generic information that anyone with half a brain could have figured out themselves within 5 minutes of picking up the demo.

Want an actual tip or two? Predators will ALWAYS growl as they charge up their heavy attack. If you find yourself in a melee battle with a Predator and you hear the growl, train yourself to automatically light attack without hesitation. Secondly, it helps to knock out a few lights as an Alien. You should use this to "own" a section of the map. Knock out some lights and stick to that area if you like. It's also notable that on metal, Aliens make loud clanging noises with their claws, but while walking on hive resin, Aliens are practically silent.

I think they aimed this at the average/new players that haven't even touched the game. I think its great that their trying to help the average Joe's out, I don't see why everyone is getting so pissed off about it. Hey, at least we got to see some of the maps in more detail. :tongue:
