Re: xbox 360 MP demo different from PC MP beta ?
I don't own a 360 but from reading the FFoW forums it's the same maps although apparently VOIP is available in the 360 demo. That's the only thing I'm really bummed about right now, I'd love to play with squad VOIP.

I would assume that the 360 demo uses a newer build since it is an updated build from the single player demo which came out in December after the 0.3.0 beta.

Got the demo and played street. Most things are the same except for the controls. The inverted issue is not present Yay! so I can play inverted Y-axis and not hurt my brain. THe only other thing I really noticed was the LMG's seemed more accurate.

I played it for a few minutes today, and it did seem very similar. Ran a bit smoother too.

Was there still invisible walls and the weird bouncing you get from walking on uneven ground?

Re: xbox 360 MP demo different from PC MP beta ?
I think the 360 is more polished. Some tweaks I noticed. The EMP kit gets it's stick at level 2 and rocket at level 3. Also, the weapons seem a little more accurate especially the LMG. I can't get over how nice it is to have the inverted axis option
. The mouse precision, extra buttons, and communication are the reasons I'll stick with the PC version, but the 360 version is every bit as much fun as the PC.

Re: xbox 360 MP demo different from PC MP beta ?
Have both PC & 360 demo. Right now I'm liking the 360 version a bit better even though I am much more of a PC gamer than console. The smoothness is nice and of course paying it on a 46" 1080p TV via HDMI & Onkyo Dolby Digital sound tilts the scale a bit. Even with that, I'm sure I will end up playing the PC version more once released for the obvious reasons.
I've always liked the PC gaming community more than the console community. I guess because there are more old folks like me there.Brock Santini

It picks up speed from where your at draeh. Kind of like a pre-Subway Jared on a inner tube heading down Everest. Originally Posted by draeh

That was the biggest thing I noticed as well. This weekend trying to play inverted on the PC was causing me great emotional distress switching back and forth between vehicles and infantry roles. God-awful painful. Originally Posted by tHa_KhAn

Re: xbox 360 MP demo different from PC MP beta ?
I have tried both the PC beta and XBOX demo, and although I too am mainly a PC gamer, I like the XBOX version slightly better at this point. I'm leaning towards purchasing the console game at this time. Originally Posted by SANTINI

Re: xbox 360 MP demo different from PC MP beta ?
I got a feeling that TG will have a good showing on the 360.
Another difference, and the main other than general stuff is that the EMP stick is the lvl 2 EMP ability. I like being able to stop airstrikes before stopping tanks. I have also been getting good at listening for where the RSA auto-turrets are and putting the stick on the other side of the wall to disable it.
On that note, I hate the auto turrets.... they kill tanks WAY too easy.
