UK XBOX World Magazine Info

I don't know if it has been posted or not but this is the information from the UK XBOX World Magazine :

On Multiplayer:

-The Audio diary of when Diane McClintock is sitting in Kashmir Restaurant and there is an explosion is when the Rapture civil war is begun.

- That third secret multiplayer mode may or may not be a capture the flag (Capture the little sister) type of mode.

-Some walls during multiplayer may be breakable depending which weapon you have with enough kick to do so.

-When you pick up the Rosie upgrade, your health doesn't regenerate.(Thats probably something obvious)

- Quote from the magazine:"We're informed that additional DLC is a strong possibility to boost post-launch."

-Sawed-off variation of the shotgun.

-Confirmed: You can electrify Geyser Trap.

-You can put Geyser Trap on walls.

-Only 1 Rosie suit at a time during any match.

-When someone picks up the Rosie suit you will know due to the classic pissed off Rosie wail that rings out through the halls.

-You can hack vending machines to shock enemies when they try to get some EVE.

-Flying Security Bots will NOT be in multiplayer because of the added chaos that would lead to frustration and the game going from fun to aggravating.

-Winter Blast slows down instead of freezing.

-Electro-Bolt last one to two seconds but thats more than enough time to give your foe a good amount of damage.

-Multiplayer uses COD type challenges like Accumulate 10 winter blast kills or 5 Winter Blast and melee combo kills for a nice chunk of extra Adam.

-Also like COD, a message will pop-up when a challenge is completed.



On Singleplayer:

-Jordan Thomas Confirmed that Big Daddies and Splicers aren't the only people in rapture. Quote from the article: "Also roaming the city's halls are lost souls in need of rescue. You can bind people together via your helmet camera when they cant physically see each other, then rescue them and decide how you work with them."

-The last question reveals what people have been speculation about for awhile now, Quoted: We asked Jordan about the game's logo which, with barnacles and butterflies, hints at Rapture's rise to the surface. "People always read too much into everything" he chuckles. "That said it does NOT mean the butterfly was meaningless by any stretch."

-Other than the usual Harvest or Don't Harvest choices, other factors will count towards the type of ending you're headed to and close to the end you will get to see ahead at the type of person you are becoming.

-When you're fighting a big daddy and die, his health will regenerate.

-You can use Incinerate!3 to burn down objects in your way and open up hidden locations.

Not alot of OMG info but it's still info nevertheless.

Wow, great info! Thanks so much for posting.

So did they imply that the Gatherer's Flu is now canon? *THAT* is OMG info, IMO.

I don't quite understand what it means by "using your camera to guide lost souls?" Like, humans or ghosts? (I thought the "ghosts" were just a side effect of ADAM). And how would a camera do that?
"Bind"??

the "ghosts" actually seem to be imprints of the past due to the effects of ADAM...maybe its possible that since you're the first big daddy, you're the most spliced up being alive, and you're able to interact with them?

whoa. this brings up a whole new idea in relation to the time travel ideas pertaining to BioShock 2.

Uh I think it's citizens of Rapture who are hiding from splicers. I have no idea what they are talking about when they refer to the camera. Maybe they mean the flashlight and you help them escape from splicers?

Maybe by "bind" they meant the Big Daddy can record other survivers with the camera and help the unspliced people communicate with each other without getting in harms way of the splicers.

Or it just means there are normal people dying and you can help them.
