Remove 2p Sequential

Post by Crissipos »

Nowadays a lot of people start a 2 player sequential game.. I think this option should be removed, since the player that can start as first most of the time gets an advantage

No one is forcing you to play.
So, don't play that option.

I think that's a damn good reason why it should be kept. "OMG! People like this game type, let's take it away!" Use your head boy :)

Turn off unlimited fortifications and it becomes a lot fairer. Also, larger maps tend to negate the bonus so play on places like World 2.1

I WILL leave if Optimus Prime or lord voldemort leave.

I am a bit over emotional at the moment.

It doesn't matter if it's sequential or freestyle, certain maps with two players whoever goes first will win. Recently, I played an Ages of Realms 2 player that lasted all of three rounds, with me taking one of the other guy's castle in the first round.

I hate this idea. I mean I truly hate it. Unless the game starter is around when to game starts the person to last join the game has a big advantage.

In Freestyle, it will most likely always end up being the 2nd player joining (green) that will go first.

Removing Sequential (the only truly random draw for who goes first) would only make the problem you describe, worse.

Is there a point to removing a perfectly viable gaming mode? Just consider that for a second.

People play lots of these because they LIKE them!

They are short, you don't have to "sit" and watch like you do wth freestyle, but you can often finish a game in a short while if both people wish.

ok, but the player who starts itsn't random, in most games it's the game creator, and I lose almost all 2 player sequential games I join
ok, maybe I shouldn't join those, but I just hate all those games people are creating, just hoping to get good points from them

Therefore it's not all games, therefore it must change sometimes, therefore it's random. Ta da! Case closed!

I agree. Don't play that style 2p game then. Why remove the option from those that like it.
