Hi,

I'm newly registered but have been following this game and this forum for some time with much anticipation!

I now have a question I haven't seen the answer to yet:

Will BoP have an offline/local splitscreen multiplayer? I used to play IL2 FB on my home PC network with my brother all the time but he doesn't have a 360 so would love to still be able to challenge him to the next generation of IL2!

Just as a side note, this is THE best game forum I've ever seen, good work 1C.

Cheers,

Sorry I guess I wasn't clear - I meant will I be able to play against my brother in a splitscreen multiplayer mode on my one XBox 360?

i think the answer to that is yes but obviously it wont go towards online ranking or anything

That would be awesome, makes it a good game to get out when you have your mates over for a lads night! Like you say, it obviously wouldn't affect online ranking but thats fine with me, its all about the fun factor.

Maybe Anton is browsing this thread and can comment on this for us?

No Splitscreen, guys.
Too much computing power needed.

That is a real shame but is also quite understandable. Can you say if there will be any form of System Link option for Xbox parties? Also is there a form of Co-Op or will it all be Vs?

Thanks for your clarifications!

Same here. I wish I had more friends who shared the urge to fly.
