The game looks great, I really enjoyed the first one, I have to wait for MS points to arrive before I get it though! I just have a few questions about the multi-player over live.

1) When you finish a game, will you return to a lobby with the current players so, that you can easily play another round? Or will you have to setup from scratch again?

2) I know there are other contributing factors that can cause such issues and they are to be expected to an extent when playing online. But, it did seem fairly common in the previous XBLA version for games to end unexpectedly. Will it be more robust over live?

3) Will it be possible to choose to show a replay, rather than a replay being shown automatically and beyond anyones control?

In response to #2: I've read that this title uses host migration, which may help. I certainly hope it does.

A few more questions: -

In Ranked matches...

4) How much damage does the shotgun do? How many do we start with?

5) What is the game time limit, and what happens at sudden death?

6) How many overpowered and/or gimmicky weapons do we start with? You know what I'm talking about. :D

Thanks in advance.

1. Not sure, haven't tried that out yet.

2. Xbox Live is great. Better then the predecessor in every way. Little to no glitches, quitters are fixed so it sends the score to the leader boards.

3. I'm not sure about the initial replay, but you can restart them and that's about it.
