[edit] Multiplayer?
A recent change of the page included multiplayer support. Could someone please confirm that?

[edit] RE: Multiplayer
No that's not correct. B&W2 will ship without multiplayer support, but may be added later; http://www.lionhead.com/teambw/mailbagw1.html

- are you sure? Peter Molyneux and Ron Millar (lead designers) are always playing multiplayer games against each other. doesn't this mean they have multiplayer working? or does this mean they are working on it and thus are testing it? Frexe 31 Aug 2005

- Though it's certainly possible that they have some functional version of multiplayer in the studio that they could have been referring to, multiplayer will definitely not ship with the initial release. (Darric, 05 Sep 2005)
[edit] System Specs?
Where do those stated minimum system requirements come from? They don't seem at all close to what Lionhead have mentioned in the past... (Darric, 05 Sep 2005)
[edit] Accuracy
"One of this game's most promising features is its interface, which will be almost buttonless"
I'm not sure if this is accurate. I haven't played the game myself, but I've seen it being played and read reviews, and it appears that the buttonless interface of B&W1 has been replaced with a much more traditional interface with lots of buttons to click on. Arganoid 18:01, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
I've played the game before, and yes there is an interface full of buttons. However, they aren't completely necessary to the gameplay. You can play without it, but it just tends to be easier for some to use a GUI. --211.27.187.140 07:35, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
=No, you cannot play the game without buttons. You need them to upgrade. You *must* navigate throughout the menus in order to play.
Technically, you could play the game without using the menus, but most of the time the villagers will suggest things at the town centre that aren't immediately suitable. In order to plant their suggested fields for example, you'd want to build a temple to stretch your influence over a fertile patch of land. Eventually you do hit F1 and start some tedious scrolling. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.100.51.85 (talk) 02:40, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Sandbox mode?
The article says that there is a sandbox mode after completing the game, is that true? I beat the game, but it takes you back to land 3 and I didn't get a sandbox mode.
No, it isn't. Deleted —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.197.196.249 (talk) 14:37, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
Strikes me that they could have added a sandbox mode if they'd spent less time adding a full physics engine to the credits :p —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.100.51.85 (talk) 02:42, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Characters
Shouldn't we include a list of characters appearing in B&W2? And just out of curiousity, what's the music that plays during the Nut Oil Brothers missions? - Frostmourne 16 14:06, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Sequel?
Will there be a sequel for BW 2? if so, when? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.183.127.178 (talk) 10:15, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
