Multiplayer (like original SNES version)

[Hal]

Let me guess like every other FF4,5,6 re-release they will have removed multiplayer? SNES original and PS1 FF6 release are the only versions to have it. FF6 is very fun to play with a friend (4 party members, 2 each). I guess I know what game I'll be modding tomorrow.

I forgot how the OG snes carts had that, that would be sweet if they had it with remote play.

If you have two or more controllers connected to your computer, the game recognizes both, so you can simulate multiplayer by only controlling certain characters in battle. This works with all the pixel remasters.

I didnt know that! Thanks!

multiplayer was just: your older bro inputting sabins commands when it was your turn to play as sabin so it failed as you both tried to do it, and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ now he's pressing a when it's edgar's turn to and we used the wrong tool again. it was more of a 2-controller setup, ie, be patient and respectful or it doesnt work.

But you could use two controllers and set which characters are which controllers in the options menu?

As already mentioned you can kind of do it since the game will pick up multiple controllers plugged in, however the game will respond to all inputs from any controller. So you just need to be careful to only control your characters when their turn comes up. It doesn't work like in the original SNES games where you could assign different controllers to different characters in combat.

ya, I remember mapping 2 heroes to my friends controller (could choose who he got to play) then during fights he controlled those 2 heroes. I couldn't accidentally press a button to mess up his blitz or tools, but maybe i'm remembering it wrong.

I always got Sabin so I PERSONALLY could ONLY do pummel cause my child brain couldnt figure out bum rush T.T

We may have to wait for some kind of mod someday, if that ever happens.

[TheWashableBomb]

They didn't add a feature that 90% of the game's fans didn't even know existed? And out of that 10% only 0.1% used it? And out of that 0.1% only 1% of that actually used it in more than once session after the weak novelty of it faded in an hour???

RIOT. RIOT. RIOT. THIS WILL NOT STAND!

I only recently found out that you can use an adjacent cardinal direction for any of the diagonals, so Bumrush becomes < < ^ ^ > > v v instead of trying to do Zangief's spinning piledriver on a SNES controller. This works in most versions, but not in the mobile version (probably because the directions are onscreen and you can just tap them). Certainly made it doable on the Playstation controller. Not sure why it was so hard on that one.
