multiplayer atmosphere

multiplayer community

speacial multiplayer options (haha, those noobs that only play single player)

As much fun as multiplayer is, I always find that any atmosphere within the single player is completely lost (barring sports games).

Take COD for example - single player feels like you're in a WWII movie or something like that. Go multiplayer and it's just a bunch of you farting around with machine guns.

Like I say, that's a load of fun, but it loses something in the transition.

Can anyone think of a multiplayer that doesn't turn into that kind of thing? I would be interested to hear of one that keeps the single player atmosphere.

The Battlefield series have no single player campaign story missions checkpoints objectives mode. It's all multiplayer action.

So they don't really count then

They don't have an atmosphere to lose.

PS - Vietnam was and is my favourite of the lot. Ok, never played 2142, but still.
