As the Portal 2 release date nears I can't help but wonder if the new multiplayer component will add to the game or detract from it. I'm not saying Portal should be a single player experience only but I can't help but think that multiplayer Portal is going to take griefing to a whole new level.

Thoughts?

I suspect the multi-player will be interesting and fun as co-op but if there is any VS play it will be awful.

Mr. Analog

I think co-op would be a lot of fun actually, vs doesn't make sense. Like I say it will just take griefing to a whole new level

VS might work for capture the flag scenarios?  Beyond that, whoever gets the other stuck in a never-ending loop first wins.
Prayin' for a 20!

Haha, I wonder if there are any advantages to being the tall robot vs the squat robot...

I'd actually like to play as GlaDOS and set up arenas for subjects to explore...

also evil!

I can imagine that Team Killing would take on a whole new meaning... The douchebags will really enjoy making everyone's online experience miserable...

What about cake?  Will there be cake?  It said the cake is a lie, but then that final sequence showed a cake!

Only if it's clever ganking, with Portal it's way too obvious because you can see where you're haded... unless you jumped and the other player changes the exit portal hahaha. If done right it could be funny (like TF2), but I'm so curious at this point. I hope it isn't just tacked on (like the multiplayer from Bioshock 2 felt)
