Binary Domain Multiplayer Dissected

Cyborg-slaying third person shooter, Binary Domain, is out now in EU territories (you lot across the pond will have to wait til the 28th) SEGA having also launched a new trailer, focused on the game’s multiplayer component. Offering five fully customisable classes and a variety of maps, here are the 5-on-5 online modes available.

DATA CAPTURE:
Here each team must race to capture the other’s data module. This must then be returned to the team console in order to steal the data and score. A strong balance of classes and good teamwork are needed here to ensure you have runners, carriers and defenders in key locations.

DOMAIN CONTROL:
In this mode opposing teams must race to control as much ground as possible, with key strategic points needing to be held by one team against the other. The more points you hold at any one time, the greater your teams score. Good co-ordination and movement are vital to winning this mode.

TEAM SURVIVAL:
A straight forward game of last-man-standing with the team to have the last player remaining being crowned the winner! Skilled attackers and patient defenders are equally valuable in this mode.

OPERATION:
Here one team must defend a set of supplies and another must race to destroy them. A sequence of progressive objectives keeps the goals varied and requires adaptability on behalf of defenders and attackers. At the end of the round, teams swap and play the opposing role.

DEMOLITION:
This modes sees the map strewn with bombs, and the aim is to simply find them, take them deep into enemy territory and unleash hell (well, blow up enemy supplies).

TEAM DEATHMATCH:
No Multiplayer would be complete without Team Deathmatch; there’s no need for me to explain this one to you – most frags wins!

FREE FOR ALL:
Bring chaos and destruction to the world of Binary Domain with Free For All mode. Fight across a variety of maps, in an every man for himself scenario of destruction. Kill everyone else as often as possible, the player with the highest score at the end of the round wins. Simple.


Binary Domain will also sport a co-operative online mode titled Invasion, suitable for up to four players as they face down the relentless robotic hordes of 2080 Tokyo.
