lemm Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Will there ever be a 1v1 death-match arena mode incorporated into the community edition? This was a popular request when the original game was in development, so I figured that it might have been taken into consideration for the community expansion?

Solver Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 No. Writing multiplayer code is difficult in the first place, and the game has to from the beginning be intended to work with it, or else it becomes much more difficult to work around potential sync issues, and so on. And that is under good circumstances, which are certainly not the case here. As in, totally - the engine does not even have any networking or multiplayer code, and so implementing anything like that is well beyond the scope of the community edition.

Skitso Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 What about hot seat multiplayer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shitbird Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Hey, co-op hot seat multiplayer already exists! Just split control of the soldiers between you and your buddies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skitso Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Reaction fire wouldn't work but yeah, that was the point: otherwise it would be pretty easy to make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterwolves Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 What about shared geoscape multi-player? That would be pretty cool. syncing up after battles would be tough though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1st person controls the xenonauts, while the other command local forces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derekash71 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 multiplayer where one person plays xenonauts and the other the aliens would be amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael13117 Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 The 1st person controls the xenonauts, while the other command local forces Would the strategy as local forces be "swarm them with wave after wave of units until you finally kill one alien" ? , seriously unless you nerf the heck out of the Local's, It'd make things a bit..Op, Maybe the Local forces of one continent, so that person could take responsibility of defending one region of the world like say..Africa, or North America. I could see that working, but you'd need to have them use only their own funding, And instead of one great base, tons of small outposts...and keep them on Ballistic tech, but allow them to upgrade to better and better ones later on, like starting with one era of tech, then upgrading later on. ...I'd play a local forces version of this game, you could have swat, soldiers, normal airforces that fight in entire squads instead of the ones the xenonauts use..I'd like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
