Rumor: Army of Two: The 40th Day

Supposedly a sequel for Army of Two is in the works:P What do you guys think of this? The first one was good, I thought, just only if you had a partner. I think this could be good, EA just needs to work at making the singleplayer remotley fun:P

So, here are the highlights of the supposed game info:

* The game takes place in Shanghai, where a network of PMCs are looking to take over, under the rule of a leader with a hidden purpose
* Rios and Salem are back, however they've been reluctantly dragged into the conflict and don't have the full story
* The game will feature moral decisions, a deeper weapons customization system, multiple endings, and even a few followers
* Multiplayer will be outsourced yet again
* On the technical side: The 40th Day adds Beast lighting and Fracture, as well as an improved networking system
* Environmental interaction: some weapons will be capable of tearing through thin walls and obstacles in the game; and new AI scripts will improve your partner's realism (e.g., peeking through windows, taking out enemies silently, etc.)
* EA will be tossing civilians into the mix, which you can use as meat human shields

Our tipster also provides us with alleged details of the game's first levels:

* 1st map is the introduction (duh)
* 2nd map is the invasion; with Rios and Salem escaping from a crumbling building
* 3rd map takes place in a zoo
* 4th map takes Rios and Salem to a hospital

game has a lot of potential to be really good if they do it right. The first was some what rushed

Army of Two was excellent for co-op play, and I would most definitely buy the sequel.

Why not make it 4-player co-op?
