    I remembered from Age of Empires 2 that you could play coop against the computer or even against other players. with coop I mean the following:
    2 or more players play like one player, so they both have vision, can control all units, just like if they played alone.

    If it isnt a too big problem to implent it could be very fun. I was so proud when me and my friend managed to defeat the very hard computer in AoE2 :D
     
  2. StarCraft did this :) So, I'd be willing to bet that StarCraft 2 will support this either through the editor or natively. I'm not sure if WarCraft III did this though ...

    LOL. I faced 7 Very Hard computers.

    (and I lost)

    I can beat 2-3 by myself thought, I think, or was it Hard?

    Most strategy games nowadays have co-op capability. Humans play on one team while the CPU sides play on another. Starcraft 2 will definitely have this.

    Arvendragon: I think it was hard, very hard cheats with double income or so.
    Warcraft 3 didnt. Are you sure LL? AoE 3 didnt had it? A lot of strategy games dont have this I think, most just have single player co-op.
    And Eon, you can play coop by picking the same color as your friend. (just so you know :D)
     
  7. That's not what he meant.

    By co-op, it meant using the same stuff and the same color, same resources, units, etc.

    And I just beat 7 Very Hards. Easy, you cheat.

    I can actually beat hards without cheating. 7 of them at once, but only if I wall and farm like hell,

    Yeah, I've tried to play this numerous times with friends...I could never really find the fun in it. Just made things frustrating..

    "WHY THE HELL ARE YOU EXPANDING?! We need DEFENSE!"
     
  12. Even with otherwise great players, the little stupid decisions they make annoy me to no end :)
