I got OXM today. And there is 10 maps, with more coming down the road. With no Deathmatch/Sharpshooter I am wondering if some people who love respawns won't like the multiplayer since its not similar to the standard shooters (quake, halo, doom, etc). More along the lines of a Tom Clancy game since there is no jumping.

He said he didn't want capture the flag or it to devolve into deathmatch.

War Zone - 4 on 4 elimination match where everyone gets one life.
Assasination - your team wins by killing the other team's designated leader.
Execution - you have to perform a close-up execution, curb stomp, chain saw, or point blank pistol in the head - to finish your opponent or he'll come back into play.

I don't think they've detailed the multiplayer like that before, or at least I hadn't read it.

"If you have no fear of death, then you just run at each other, and it devolves into a Quake match. That's cool, but we're not that game"

Oh yeah, they also show the first sequence of images of a curb stomp in action (4 images). I haven't seen that before either.

Sounds interesting. Should make for a different kind of game.

there's lots and lots of video's of multiplayer, it was cog's (human's) versus locust's (alien's) and it looked like deathmatch to me. also there's a lot of video's of chainsawing (the new sword ;) ) and curbstomping (which...isn't really that cool at all)
