'Our current plan is to focus on what we're making right now and making it as good as it can possibly be,' he said. He said, however, the team will be looking at how the community reacts.

'We kicked around the idea of a horde mode were you're playing through waves and waves of Necromorphs, which is cool, but you can kind of do that in the single-player game playing as Isaac.' 'What was really interesting to us is was giving people the opportunity to play as the other side and attack humans.' Papoutsis wasn't able to elaborate on what the studio's plans are for future downloadable multiplayer content for Dead Space 2. 'Co-op didn't really make sense for our story, and there was a big contingent of the team that felt that would remove some of the immersive and scariness of the campaign,' he explained. In the end, Papoutsis said neither of those two styles of modes could work. 'The criticism generally comes with the caveat of 'I don't want them to screw up single-player,' and we're not we're focused 100 percent on that, and we've got another group focused 100 percent on multiplayer, and we're going to make sure both of those experiences are great and fun for our players.' When developing multiplayer, Visceral initially considered several different ideas, such as adding an online cooperative mode to the campaign or even a horde mode similar to Gears of War. 'I'm very proud for what the multiplayer team has done I think it's true to our franchise it's unique and extremely Dead Space.' 'I think once people get a chance to experience the single-player game and see we didn't water down anything there to give them multiplayer, I think they're going to be happy,' he added. 'People are quick to make a judgment about something before they see it or touch it and get hands-on with it,' Papoutsis said. Papoutsis was able to address some of the early concerns from fans that the Dead Space 2's single-player campaign may suffer due to development time being allocated to creating multiplayer content.
