Red Faction: Guerilla Multiplayer Review

When you have dissolved through the vast array of options that the single player campaign in RFG has to offer, you are not at a crossroads. for those of you who have a Gold activated LIVE account, or a current subscription to the PSN, or a membership on you PC, you can get into some of the most refreshing multiplayer since halo revitalized the FPS category. To start off with you don't have much unlocked, the first set of characters, your first weapon, and a default badge. Around my fifth game, I had accrued enough experience points so that I was able to customize my character more. I am now at 15000 experience points into the game, and the sheer vastness of this multiplayer is amazing. I have unlocked more than I was able to unlock in single player. With the experience you get, you unlock new color sets for your badges, new badges, all new characters, for the campaign and for each team in MP. You can also unlock new sledgehammers. But I find the greatest part in the mulitplayer rewards is the bonus XP events. These make it so that you can unlock bonus experience for nearly everything you do. I have unlocked bonus XP events for killing an enemy in the air, shooting him in the head, or even being next to a teammate while he kills an enemy. I am not completely finished with the MP, as the highest in experience sets you to get to 150000 points. There is one more point that completely sets this game apart from others. Most games have a class engine that lets you pick from, for example, warrior, mage, archer. RFG does away with that almost altogether. They introduced the backpack system to equalize the guns out. While this isn't the game where half of the arsenal kills you in one shot. The backpack system makes you take your time with the enemy, instead of running in there with just a gun. You can take your choice from 10 backpacks, be it spearing through a wall where the enemy is hiding, or give yourself a temporary boost of health and invulnerability with the heal pack. All in all, the multiplayer is an extremely rewarding experience, giving you presents along with experience. My only annoyance with this game is the stability of the multiplayer, as i have been dropped or my friends have been dropped from many matches. Red Faction: Guerilla multiplayer gets a 9.5/10
