Throw MP Players a Bone

Post by w_michael »

I own all of the DLC, but half of my gaming time is MP. I am loving Allies Defiant, but when you create a new DLC could you also create a MP version of one of the scenarios that would be available in the Community Crate? It is a big ask, but MP development seems to be a secondary objective for the designers.

I would even buy a DLC containing a dozen balanced MP scenarios.

I absolutely agree and I support this. We need more official MP maps and some official ones need to be revisited and upgraded (Dubno, Artic Fox, Fork).
Devs and Shards already showed their potential with maps like Karelian Kesä, Raseiniai and Kiev to Zhitomír. Those are top quality meeting-engagement scenarios with good replayability. However I would like to see some "classic" attack-defend scenarios. I am not so much fan of "symetric" ("mirrored") maps with attack-attack setup.

And there are still unpleasent bugs in MP which we all know about and which are still not being fixed - like a broken chat or an inability to choose a faction before a 3 or 4-player MP battle.

I wouldn´t mind to pay for MP-only DLC.

Since the first scenario of every campaign is available for free to everyone who owns at least one DLC, perhaps that would make a good choice for a Community Crate MP scenario. I believe the CC is unavailable until you own at least one DLC as well.
