Team games : your opinion.

Team games : your opinion.

About team games, I have two possibilities :

- The max numbers of players depend of the map. You can't join with 3 players on a 2v2 map.
- You can join a 1v1 with 3 players.

Case 1 would result in a safe way for people who want 1v1 to be sure it's a 1v1.
Case 2 would result in all an ACU spawning near the start location, but no extra mass point would be available.
The other will come by transports once the beacon is built.
That could be interesting, or not.

What do you think?

I Like case two a bit better, it would make it intresting, and could call for some big battles.

in my opinion, it would be cool NOT to follow the map limitations of max players, with the only exception for 5x5 maps which are probably just too small for many ACUs

if it is either or, i would prefer that Teams can be formed dependant from the map.
For example a 6 Player Map for 3 Player Teams

Either way, it will be possible to have a 1vs3 on a 3v3 map. Or a 2v3, or anything really.

The only difference is the possibility to have a 3v1 on a 1v1 map, even strategically, it can make no sense (no more mass point).

Either way it should favour teamplay and cooperation, i would like to see 3v3 3v1 or 3v2 on any map.
Edit: one who play 3v1 can only try this in kind of desperation or seraphim glaciers.
Also you should see that there are 3 attakers, but you attack alone you can meet 3 defenders and be forced to recall
I wish you could hide names complitely and only know it by scouting acu

Obfuscating names will come later.

But the, what you say is the idea I had in mind.

The only point of discussion is to know if maps that doesn't allow more than 2 players "normally" can be played with more players.

Even if there are not more mass points for the additional ACUs, one more ACU on e.g. Theta Passage would wreck hell if it is 2v1.
I think on smaller maps the combat power of the ACU is more important, so if you want to allow additional ACUs on 1v1 map, then i would limit it to larger maps.

But - hell, let's try it.

Remember that you still have reinforcements and planetary defense.

Also later you will have building reinforcements too.
