Onslaught has just been announced. It’s a coop game for Battlefield Bad Company which sounds really interesting.
Onslaught is bringing co-op gameplay to Battlefield for the first time on console. The new game mode puts you and up to three friends against the enemy on Valparaiso, Atacama Desert, Isla Inocentes and Nelson Bay – redesigned with new lighting, time of day, added vehicles and other effects. Each map has a dedicated gameplay focus, requiring different levels of teamwork in order to complete the objectives against an onslaught of enemy AI. Vehicle warfare comes to the forefront in Atacama Desert while Nelson Bay focuses squarely on infantry assault. Players can compete in squads and check individual progress via the dedicated Onslaught leaderboards.
(The video is nothing special, 1/3 of it is company logos!)
The one fly in the ointment is that it won’t be free. If it gets good reviews and if my friends on PSN and Xbox Live want to buy it I’ll probably pick it up.
Unfortunately if you’re on PC, you’re out of luck due to the way they’ve deployed/designed their servers.
I’m getting it so will give you a review. That will be a good squad training game
