Stupid quest & okay looks like BF BC2, guess some kind of text would have helped detail this new MP mode a little better.

This should breathe some life into the already tired (for me) online MP. Honestly I need anything I can get to hold me off until Socom 4.

Looks good, hopefully around 800pts. 1200 may put many people off and 1600 would put everyone off.

BC2's AI is so awful that I can't say this kind of game mode for this game is terribly appealing.  But I wouldn't mind trying it out.  Hope they figure out a way to bring it to PC.

Don't remind me of SOCOM 4. I bought SOCOM 2 again for a tenner last week and been playing that. Playing SOCOM at the moment doesnt work because every room is basically cold front with a bajillion thermal scopes.

because commenters are always right. I know this is mainly a 360-oriented site but man, there are more platforms than that.

For those that think this will only be for the consoles: 
http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/63751
 
At this time it is only for Consoles because they don't want to destroy the online structure of pc gaming...personally i think they should tackle it the way valve approaches L4D for the pc...have dedicated and p2p possibilities...for only four players its fine.

Will this be enough to draw people's attention away from Red Dead Redemption?

Nobody's stupid enough to charge 1200 microsoft points for a single map pack. Oh, wait.

I dunno man. This is as un-battlefieldish as it gets. Besides, the AI for the bots in Battlefield games is, has always been and will most likely always be utter and complete garbage.
 
I love BF, but this really puts me off. Oh well, it might never even come to the PC anyway.

I have no idea what this is from the trailer
 From the official blog I see its co op with existing maps with enemies added in.
 
But AI will never be as devious or as fun to fight as a player.
For example to snipe someone, and then C4 that spot and move on, so that when they come looking for you, BOOM.
 
I dunno.  I will have to see.

It's 4 player co-op versus AI. It's objective driven on existing maps (lighting, daytime, layout and vehicle spawns are different). There will be new vehicles as it seems. That gun boat sure is epic. 
 
I guess it's gonna be like 4 players with 100 tickets versus a ton of nasty AI. Like playing the big Rush mode, only against AI. 
 
Hopefully the matchmaking will be thight. Might be just right thing to relax from the real thing from time to time and frag the AI 'til it's sore.

While I will put a lot of time into Red Dead : Redemption (and buy it day 1), I definitely will return to BF:BC 2. For me, there's no grander online multiplayer experience than BF:BC 2. 
 
I'm curious to see how well DICE does co-op. It's their first co-op mode ever. Will it show? Hopefully it's good. I like me some co-op.

Awesome! It would be really great if this were free but im sure they are going to want to charge for what should have already been in the game which is some form of co op.

Um...what?  Are they seriously putting a survival mode into the game?  Are they going to be charging for this?  Will the AI be a bunch of 'nade-spamming, noob-tubing whores? 
 
So many questions... 
 
If they are charging and it doesn't have achievements, then I don't care.
