When asked about High Voltage's long-ago-announced title, Animales de la Muerte, Nofsinger confirmed that it is still alive but currently on hold. Due to the focus on comedy and its accompanying large quantity of audio, Animales de la Muerte would not fit into the WiiWare size limits and the game is instead planned for a disc release if and when it comes out.
Split-screen multiplayer has to be one of the dumbest things ever in a FPS.Why? With online-only, if you had three friends who wanted to play the game, each one of them would have to own the system and the game, then lug their TVs over to your place so you can all play together. Plus, allowing more than one player per system to play online makes it easier for matches to contain a large number of players.

It isn't like having the option of local/split-screen multiplayer detracts from the game so I don't what's wrong with it. If it isn't your thing then simply don't use it.
Ugh, online has almost killed multiplayer for me. I honestly feel like local and LAN play are way more fun, and it actually seemed easier to get together with people back before all the big games were online too. I'll have to see if Eric's willing to say anything more the next time I talk to him.
We always find things to nag about. :P
Nuts.
Sure, split-screen cramps your visual field and lets the other players "cheat" by glancing at your screen to find your exact position. But like others have been saying, it's a lot more fun to play with friends in the same room. (My favorite FPS memories come from muiltiplayer GoldenEye and PD.)
Without local split screen I highly doubt I'll buy this game anywhere near launch time. I'll probably check it out when it hits about $30.

I had a blast with Goldeneye and also Perfect Dark back when they were out.Perfect Dark owns. Hard.

Split-screen multiplayer is the difference between having fond memories of the game itself or having fond memories of the people you played the game with.
Hell, I might be there too. And I don't even really like playing games online.
LOLOLOLOLOL owned so bad.
I'm look forward to single player.
My geographically close friends are FPS-inept.
I'll be hitting up NWR for multiplay.

I'm in the same boat with pro. Either my friends hate FPS's or aren't around anymore (out of state colleges and what not). June= NWR death matches. ALL DA TIME.
I'll be there.
I'm not sure I'd want to play a Wii FPS splitscreen with pointer aiming, it'd be a lot harder to be accurate with a smaller screen. Everything I hear about the game apart from these two missing features has been overwhelmingly positive; as long as that doesn't change I'll be picking this up day one and I'll be with you guys online in June.
Well, if HVG is trying hard to please everyone with this release there might be a small chance that they might add local multiplayer if the reaction is strong enough. The game won't see release till June I believe so they can add local multiplayer using the same options as the online game.

My guess is that will not happen because I'm sure Sega wants a solid release date now.
Makes me wonder how simply using multiple Wiis in one house for "local" online play would work out, if the server only does matchmaking and the game itself is run P2P between the consoles it should theoretically turn into a LAN game once you start it. Wouldn't really need a separate LAN play option then...
I'd much rather they delay the game until November and add Local Multiplayer, anyone else with me?I'm with you. A delay to add local multiplayer would totally be worth it. I don't care if it would have to run at 30FPS or something; how many people complained that Mario Kart Wii ran at 30FPS in the multiplayer mode? Certainly not as many complaints as if the game had no local multiplayer whatsoever.
Didn't somebody legendary once state something along the lines of "A delayed game is eventually good; a rushed game is bad forever"?

I had a big post arguing against delaying the game but then you had to go and quote Miyamoto on me.

What i care about with Conduit is a well designed and fun single player mode with a solid online system that is stable.
Well I don't think Conduit is being rushed, but there are just some things you have to wait on when it comes to including them! About every game in the universe, polished or not has things they could not implement.True, very true. This means that I want to see this game be successful, as it's the sequel I'm waiting for.

Onslaught doesn't have any local multiplayer either...
