Would this image suggest the possibility of multiparty play (for custom games, presumably)?
Cause a four team game of Uplink (2v2v etc.) would be pretty :krad:

Or it's the must more obvious game type: free-for-all

Just to be clear, it's definitely free-for-all.

Haha, "Detroit" is a map.

That is disappointing about the shotguns, that laser UTS-15 thing didn't seem to have much reach (or killing power, frankly), and it's the longest ranged of those three.

Is that EMP at 6 with UAV at 4? Or are kills only worth 50 and the UAV is 8 kills? Either way those two are way too close together.

It's not an EMP, it's a counter UAV that also disables the HUD and reticles. It can probably be upgraded to an EMP but I imagine that'd jack the score up by a fair margin.

I'm kinda disappointed that there are not more Scorestreaks, but I guess the upgrades make up for that.

Yea, each one has 5 or 6 upgrades I think. I think they had to make each one "worth it" because you now use Pick points to use em'.

I saw videos of a guy throwing the ball into another players hands so they couldn't shoot, killing them, and then picking the ball back up. Gamemode looks awesome.

On Nov 9th K-Mart (lol) will be selling a Kinect-less XBONE for $350. I'd be impressed if Amazon and other retailers didn't price match.

Are there different classes of scorestreaks is there only one list to choose from like BLOPS and BLOPS 2?

"But she goes not abroad, in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She is the champion and vindicator only of her own."
One list, but many scorestreaks have a "Support" optional module, which increases the cost, but doesn't reset when you die.

"Many" may be an overstatement, but UAV, Care Package, Sentry Gun, etc.

A reminder that you can put a module on Bombing Run to make it drop packages. Christmases coming early this year.

I almost always ran support in MW3 because I suck and chose the really low-level ones so I could vomit vests and UAVs everywhere.
