Unreal 2 Multiplayer Patch Announced

Posted by simoniker on from the announcement-actually-quite-unreal dept.

Thanks to an anonymous reader for pointing to HomeLan Fed's story indicating Epic have announced a free multiplayer add-on for Unreal 2 is in development. This announcement comes in an official Unreal 2 messageboard thread posting from Epic's Mark Rein, and briefly states: "Lack of multiplayer is a temporary issue with Unreal 2. Legend are currently reviving their XMP design for multiplayer and it will be released as a FREE downloadable add-on for people who own Unreal 2." Might this partly be because developers Legend are doing multiplayer work for the alleged Xbox conversion of Unreal 2, after the so-so reception of the PC version?

    Out of 10,000 other game patches, how is this the most relevant one to post news about? I always get the feeling that you slashdot guys only post news about what YOU care about, instead of the public in general.

    I don't want to damage reputation i just want to let you know my (although AC) opinion. Maybe a /. editor will read this and correct thier bias?
