Metriod Prime Hunters online details

[fischju]

The details on the different battle modes in Metroid Prime Hunters game have been released. There are 7 different battle modes and they will be the best online.

Battle - the classic Deathmatch known from various first-person shooters. Everyone's your enemy in this mode.
Survival - Just like the Battle-mode, but this time you'll get a limited amount of lives. Get killed to often and it's game over for you and off to the spectating mode.
Bounty - Bring the Octolith-artifact to your base and score points. Of course you're also allowed to blast everything that's moving on your way finding the Octolith.
Defender - Like King of the Hill from other first-person shooters, you're assigned part of the map and it'll be your task to defend that part.
Prime Hunter - Play hide-and-seek, as one player is assigned to be the Prime Hunter. Kill the Prime Hunter to become the Prime Hunter yourself. He who manages to stay the Prime Hunter for the longest time wins.
Capture - Capture the Flag on the Nintendo DS. Team up with another players, try to steal your opponents' Octolith and bring it to their base.
Nodes - Several nodes are scattered throughout the map. Get close to one to get it activated on your account and score points. He who claims the most nodes wins.

Very exciting. I just hope the game isn't randomized like MKDS. Ugh.

edit: I don't believe it has been annouced that all those battle modes are available online. But I hope they do.

Translation:

Battle - Deathmatch
Survival - uh... Survival
Bounty - One flag CTF
Defender - King of the Hill
Prime Hunter - Mutant?
Capture - Capture the Flag
Nodes - Capture Point (Like in Battlefield/front)

Caught these in my NP as well.

The Prime Hunter sounds fun, just like Mutant in Unreal Tournament. Of course I'm excited, this has been my most anticipated game since I first heard about it from E3 2004.

It doesn't mention any powerups, so it's more like a l33t version of it. However, with just 4 players, all of this will be a little different.

Aw... no power ups mentioned? Remember the good ol' days of quad damage? XD

Other than that, MP:H is lookin pretty *****in'.
