Subject: Re: Single Player / Funny story
I think you can say it vice versa, a Multiplayer game has a very common way to start and end. Building yourself a base, battle, win or lose haha.
A singleplayer game can be fun too, depends on what you can set up and play. I love the original MAX Missions and the Scenario, it took me to the limits. You had your time limits, pressure, a whole new situation every mission. The variety between the games was really something.
My point is, singleplayer in MAX was great and the new MAX R multiplayer has potential, but its not the full essence of MAX yet.

I think of MAX as first and foremost a Multiplayer game. While it can be enjoyable in Singleplayer for a time, the depth that Multiplayer mode adds to the game is staggering.

I can only think of generalzing things. MAX is a special issue, cause it never really worked in NETWORK Multiplayer, so all we had was Singleplayer. And I like a good designed singleplayer experience and MAX has it. Nothing to say against a good multiplayer experience in MAX though ;D But it has more potential than ever through MAX R....but I still think that Singleplayer MAX is nothing more than a "bonus" to a game that really shines in Multiplayer by combining the best aspects of turn based strategy and RTS games.
