Is it possible for Arx2 to have multiplayer now that it has the Source engine?

Well the engine will give them a foot in the door with the basic networking capabilities, but Arkane would most likely have to write a great deal of extra code to make the game support multiple players. Although if they planned for it from the start, and had carefully designed everything with potential multiple players in mind, then it ought to be a bit easier to implement then trying to tack the feature onto an existing design.
I would strongly suspect that Arx 2 will be single-player only.

As do I, It was just a thought that came to me when I learned they were using the Source engine. ;)

Source will provide us with that capability.

I love Arx Fatalis for the gameplay which is brilliant, I try to imagine what Arx Fatalis would have looked like had it been using HL2's engine, and come to think of it, THAT would have been .... sexy. Arx Fatalis2 = eyecandy :thumb:
