    Asymmetry is a design choice. It sits above any modes like an umbrella. The different sides will be balanced to be opposed in any of the modes. So it doesn't mean that TDM will be Military Vs. Military, in fact I would bet the opposite, that once they created their model, and started piling content into each side's personality, unlock tree etc, that they will want you NOT to avoid using it.

    I assume it's going to be Tribals Vs. Military all the way through every mode, possibly with an exception like in Spies Vs. Mercs from Splinter Cell, where they let you mix up the sides and break the theme barriers.

    I hope that it's largely cosmetic, and maybe soldiers get access to the rocket launchers, whilst tribesmen get witchcraft powers and summoning or something equivalent - and aside from that all movement, health, access to core weapons is the same. It COULD be that way..??

    Strategy Informer: Apart from the co-op, will there be any other type of multiplayer?

    Vincent Ouellette: Yes, there will be. Nothing's been announced in detail yet, but I can say that it's asymmetrical so it's very interesting. I mean like Spies Vs Mercs (from Splinter Cell), two teams with different abilities who you need to play differently. It's actually handled by the guys at Red Storm, they know their multiplayer. I'm really excited about it. We'll be announcing more soon.
    Oh god... is this really happening? I hope that there will be other modes like TDM, DM, or CTF... If not, I'll wait for sales... Anyway I will still wait for sales if there won't be dedis or a server browser...

    I think that theme will sit across a variety of the common modes Roach. But yes, this is happening, and yes, I too need convincing.

    Hopefully they will take their attention off of Unity soon and start plugging away for their real Autumn winner. We've still seen too little..

    UBISOFT HEAR THIS:

    No TDM = no buy
    No editor on par with FC2/3 = no buy
    No FC2 lobby system = no buy

    This only applies to the [beep] who's responsible for not giving us info but [boop] you. I know 90% of the people working for Ubi are awesome people who really want to make the best game possible and would love for us to have the info we want but seriously your boss/bosses are [unicorns]. You work for a [keepo] company.

    I seriously cannot believe that I have real doubts that any of these 3 seemingly "automatic" features are in the game.

    Hmm not sure what too think about this quote. But hope its not just demons vs humans (just a guess). My guess balance will be hard to find with these weapons/powers that are way different.

    Maybe its asymmetrical because one small team plays as the white tiger from shangrila and the other larger team is made up of the soldiers.

    The tigers have the advantage with 1 or 2 swipe kills, speed and stealthiness.

    Soldiers have the long range weapons and additional players...

    Think, the new predator mode....
