I always played single, but im curious about the multiplayer. It would be nice, if guys, who tried this, would share their experiences here. Is it funny to play multi? And how about the fight handling, organisation and so on if you play with some unknown players from internet?

go to the mplayer.com...

its cool, you get to meet interesting people all over the world and you can have fun...
you can also have lots of time playing with people, duel against each other, forming different gangs and all cool stuff...

BAD SIDE:
-if your internet is slow... dont bother going there ... you wont get any decent game
-you MUST get the latest patch which is 9mb to download.
-some people there are a*s h*l*s and would ruin a good game if he/she is around to in your game.
-somepeople are just hackers and no fun to play with (level 255 fighter/mage/thief) how boring
-some people however are just plain picky that he/she wont join a game because someone is hacked or something.
-it takes more than half the time trying to connect into the game and when you finally connect into a game and when you finally play the game... from a group of six people playing you get to be either a drop because of terrible lag or you would only have a companion left in your group because they are the one that got drop
- other people are just plain cheater, because they become the moderator, (and if he is a newbie or something) he would put your character in his control and get everything- export it and import it again in the game making a duplicate and returning your stuff back without your permission and he/she would only say = "i just borrowed it to check it out" (Sheesh!)

*well aside from that... its really cool im just stating all the downside i experienced so far in the mplayer world... but believe me with the right kind of people, internet connection and good characters, you would have the best time of your life... i played mplayer for about 4 hours with a buddy halfway around the world... aint that nice??

You can die and the game won't stop (unless you are the protagest)
