Graphically, the multiplayer should look a lot sharper thanks to the introduction of dynamic lighting, dynamic shadowing, distance blurring, and more. These weren't in the multiplayer of the original game, but with them you can expect a richer visual experience.

Thank god, I was expecting another dumbed-down effort.

Other interesting bits:-

We also had a chance to play a team mission on the Crash Site map. This is an objective mission mode, where one team has to plant an explosive device at certain points on the map while the other team has to deny them. The attacking team gets the benefit of aerial drone support, while the defending team can be reinforced with artificial intelligence soldiers.

The addition of 27 new weapons boosts the overall total to 62, and there are plenty of new weapon types for each of the four multiplayer class types. Throw in new customization options such as new helmets and accessories, as well as a new female player model for multiplayer
