i think so. Even if they don't spend a lot of time making it, a decent online in the world of rapture would be awesome. It would be pretty simple: pick a plasmid, weapon, and then kill eachother. Well, they might need to equalize everything, but still it would be AWESOME!!
As cool as lighting my friends on fire, swarming them with killer bees, or freezing them and shattering them with a wrench would be, I don't think there'd be a way to make a good, balanced multiplayer mode for it.
Nope. BioShock was great to me for what it was, and that was a focused and well done SP game. I think I would like any sequel to stick with that formula.
i agree that multiplayer isn't everything especially with an amazing game like bioshock, but i still think it could be cool. What if they had something like horde, where you just fend off waves of enemies WITH FRIENDS or just a coop, either one would be cool. What do you think: biohorde or co op?
I don't care for multiplayer in case of BioShock, and if that would mean that single-player would be undercooked, big NO from me. I'd rather have solid and unforgettable SP experience with no MP, than dissapointing SP and MP in one.
It would be easy enough to put it in but to make it good would take away from the single player experiance and people would mark the entire game down if it wasn't good so i'll go with no.
Devs might feel the pressure to put multiplayer in games because it seems like thats the direction gaming is going. While I do believe that multiplayer adds value to games....some games should steer clear of the multiplayer modes.
lol co-op would be fun....Big daddy!!! run for your LIVES!!!! player 1 Dies....then he gets regenerated quickly like nothing ever happened....lmao.....
If both modes can co-exist in other games (especially single player oriented games), it sure can work in Bioshock 2. I'd be all for it. It would at least add some potentially awesome replay value.

The problem is really not if it would work but work well together. If they spend alot of time making a sub-par multiplayer option that could had been time spent making the SP better. If you look at it not much games has both excellent SP and MP.
Absolutely not. Why build a multiplayer game that will be played for a week only to be bulldozed over by Call of Duty and Halo? Put the development time and money into the single player experience.
No, no, no, no and even another no for good measure. Why? just look at Metroid Prime 2 for a good example, could have been as good as the first but instead because not all the time was focused on the single player like with Prime 1 it fell short in a few areas and was like a step ways for the series and in some places even a minor one backwards imo. Just so they could have some terrible muiltplayer just so you could play 10 mins with a friend say it sucks and play a better muiltplayer game like TS2. Not say Metroid Prime 2 was bad at all by any means, but Prime 1 was easily the better one. So why should we have another repeat of that Bioshock?
Multiplayer in Bioshock? I sure as hell hope not. Because if it ships with multiplayer it can only mean one thing: the story mode's been compromised...
i was fine w/ none in bioshock. but if they actually put time into it i would consider playing it. i think it could be pretty cool, but it is definitely not needed in that game/sequel.
I think the idea of the original Bioshock, and part of what made the atmosphere so awesome, was that despite the fact you're trapped in an underwater city crawling with creatures, you also feel like the most isolated man in the world.
Multiplayer would only ruin that feeling, and make Bioshock feel like yet another generic online shooter.... Let's not go there and ruin the game.

I realize that, but unless they planned on putting a lot of effort into both modes and make both modes work seemlessy together, I'd be all for it.
