You know, I think I will buy this, I was one of a few who actually enjoyed the single player and the N-E conduit nights were fantastic fun.

I didn't mind the campaign on this but I found the multiplayer to be too full of bugs and people choosing the never ending (well, 20 minutes) rocket launcher matches... but to be fair I never got involved in the N-E nights so it's no wonder I didn't have any fun with it.

 

Gaming is always at it's best when it's with N-E! :D

Also really enjoyed the single player, wished it went on a bit longer :)

They've got to just say it's "TBA 2011" (code for "Done when it's done").

 

Anyway, enough about that. Here, have some new screens:

Jesus Christ.... it looks really GOOD.

 

Not that fussed about the delays, they aren't rushing it out which is a good thing.

 

Hopefully I can get it for £18 at launch like I did with the 1st one.

If it comes out during this year's June/July release drought, it could sell better.

I still can't get hyped for this at all, it looks better than the first sure but so did the turd I had this morning. I think I just don't have the faith in HVS making this game to be one of the top FPS' on the platform.

 

However, I do hope Conduit 2 is great because I think the first should've been so much better than it ended up being. They had great ideas but they ended up being poorly implemented.

Multiplayer splitscreen looks really good.

[Vader]I find your compulsion to compare your feces with videogames . . . disturbing.[/Vader]

 

I bought the first and enjoyed it a lot, but I didn't go in with unrealistic expectations, which probably helped. I don't think HVS have the scale of resources available to other teams that work on blockbuster titles. Got to admire them for trying though. In a market that has a planet-sized gap for FPS games, the more the merrier.

That was a cool piece of footage, L.O.T. Does anybody know if splitscreen is also in the online mode? I don't mind, too much, if it isn't but it'd be quite insane if you could at least go duo on WiFi - MKWii style!

Great interview on the front page!

 

It left me in a hungry state for the Conduit 2.

 

Thankfully there's a sniper this time 'round, and I hope some of the regulars of The Conduit N-Europe Night will buy this game and offer their heads for my headshots once again:)
