But if they make a third one, that'll be the one to have multiplayer.īut the demo is amazing! I love all the weapons choices, the more active environment, less lag, and overall everything about it.Ĭan't wait for the real thing to come out. I heard that they said it won't have multiplayer because it could push it back a whole lot.

I looked at their Raze blog for quite a while but I didn't see anything stating that there would be multiplayer but if I can recall before they started making Raze 2, they said they were putting multiplayer into consideration but no signs of multiplayer so far so yeah. I heard it should be coming out in late August, but I'm not sure if anything has happened to push it back or forward because the last time I read the Raze blog was in early June. It would have been better if teammates were more distinguishable from enemies, and the lack of online multiplayer is a sad omission, but for fans of arena shooters, Raze 2 raises the bar.There's a trailer for it on the AG blog.


However, fans of the genre should enjoy the multitude of play options, the two-perspective campaign, and the touch of juvenile humor: letting the player know that they've succeeded in eliminating their foe with a shot to the butt may not be the most mature thing in the world, but hey, in a war-zone you have to make your own entertainment. That's not a bad thing, though: with streamlined gameplay, a host of new weapons maps and play-modes, and one of the best soundtracks heard so far this year, Raze 2 might seems a little generic to those not already sold on the concept of racing around maps blasting zombie-aliens. Fans of the original will recognize this as the half-update/half-sequel that it is. should your CPU be able to handle the load. Complete the first campaign, and you'll have a chance to take revenge on those slimy humans. Each round grants you credits to be used to purchase upgrades, new abilities and other items. Use various special abilities with the key. Cycle through your weapons with and, or wield them directly with the. Using the or keys to move around and the mouse to aim and shoot, you must outkill your opponents or reach your objective, with or without a partner by your side. Raze 2 tries for a fairly in-depth story mode, but it boils down to this: You're a human. It's a good thing then that Raze 2 has the quality gameplay and presentation to distinguish itself from the competition. It's surprising there are any alien-demon-zombie menaces left to battle, considering how quickly we can deploy a near-endless supply of Master Chiefs. Let's count them off: Doom, Quake, Halo, Descent, Unreal, and, uh. Raze 2 by AddisonR and Juice-Tin is the latest in a long line of action arena shooters with spacey-marines and/or one-word non-indicative titles.
