If it went sour as quickly as the last two attempts, I was going to go back to the bar. I was waiting to see a different game at the event and had time to kill, so I decided to try playing Intercept for a third time. Bak mumbled something about getting used to the rules of the mode, and admitted it was a bit more difficult than a casual shooter fan like myself might expect. He didn’t have a good soundbite-quality answer, honestly. I turned to the lead designer of the Intercept mode, Arjan Bak, and asked him point blank: “How is this fun?” We couldn’t get enough points to respawn the team so I was asked to commit suicide by running out to get slaughtered by Helghast. The next time the four of us played, two developers having designed the mode and two green journalists (myself included), the same result occurred. “You should just go out there and kill yourself so we can start over.” I reluctantly acquiesced. The first time I sat down to play Intercept at the Sony Playstation pre-E3 event last week in Los Angeles, Guerrila Games staffers told me we had to restart after only a few minutes. Intercept is not just another multiplayer coop Horde mode.
