Now here is a nice twist as well all 4 players can choose to play player 1's army and they can all work together to defeat the AI army simple stuff.Ī 4 players coop would be a terrible idea. Battle happens and its only 2 army's solution Player one controls his army of course player 2 chooses to help him if not he spectates the battle player 3 chooses to play AI if not spectate player 4 chooses to play the AI as well if no one chooses the AI then the AI plays the army.
TOTAL WAR SHOGUN 2 MULTIPLAYER CAMPAIGN FREE
If its free form free for all allowing alliances and and such and 1vs3 or 2v2 either way it would work like this. If its Co-op 4 players they all work together to win the game. 2 players will be fighting and 2 players will be bored to death waiting, unless you restrict everything to a 2vs2 campaign where all battles are shared between players, but that has some disadvantages as well, the main one being that you may or may not want to share your troops, or you may or may not play a 2vs2, perhaps a "free will" campaign with alliances and backstabs during the development of the game, how do you make that?.I explained this in my post how it would work. I know for instance, that a good way of "making faster" the campaign would be to copy the Civ5 turn system, and allowing all players to play their turns at the same time, when everyone hits next turn, it loads IA movements, and so. Simple stuff that would make it work great.īut on that note I really!!!! Really!!! want Ca to implement this feature to the MP Campaign real badly!! Been wanting this for years on end. Another thing is allow all players to do there diplomacy trading building and tech while its another players turn to make things go smoothly and fast.
TOTAL WAR SHOGUN 2 MULTIPLAYER CAMPAIGN PLUS
Plus if a player does not want to fight the battle he can easily spectate. If a player attacks a AI nations army allow 2 players to play the attacking players army and allow 2 other players to play the defending AI Army simple and easy and fun. Now this is a simple way it can work to keep it fun. Plus even with 4 players in a campaign the end game would be epic 4 super powers now are fighting for the rest of the known world in Rome 2 total war would be so grand and so epic. You have to think of it this way you need to understand it takes time to complete a campaign its not suppose to be a 2 hour affair its a few weeks affair and so on. I have completed many MP Campaigns with friends many time and even my brother and I completed many epic Campaigns together with lots of fun.
Solution is this building a MP Campaign community and telling your friends if you played MP Campaigns before or even single player Campaigns you know they take a while to finish the point is even in MP campaigns its not about completing it in a few hours its about playing the campaign over time and continuing it till the end. They will say it takes to long or its not possible to make it work or even this its hard to find people to play with for that many players for the MP Campaign. Now here is a issue most people who don't want or even care about MP Campaigns being expanded to more players. I think if CA does not do this I believe in my heart that this is a missed opportunity to bring in more people to this game who love competitive Campaigns with more people. So I for one have friends who will fill the other 3 or so slots if they increase the amount of players for MP Campaigns. Now I think adding more players to the MP campaign would be the right thing to do because it adds more epicness and fun the more players the more fun of course I cant imagine why it wouldn't be. Its not a ton of people but its around 15 friend or so who will consider getting this game if they expand the campaign to 4 or even 8 players on the campaign. Now here is the deal I have been trying to convert many friends to play this game who play other type of war games and such but don't want to get total war because the campaign seems limited to them because it only allows 2 players.
First off I will still get this game so don't think or troll that im going to say I wont get it lol. From what Will stated in another forum it would seem MP Campaigns are staying at 2 players 1v1 and 2 Player Co-op.
