Local multiplayer

[The Cat with the Gat]

I think I´m not alone, who would like some sort of local multiplayer. I´ve got decent amount of money to buy this game, but my brother can´t afford it. I know, dollars are sweet, but community is more important.

And how would that work? You would be able to see the other players moves every time in a local game. Which kinda makes the whole thing a bit pointless.

For example in local Worms. They could see your inventory, but they will walk away for a while, or just turn around.

And I am speaking as a guy, who can play card games alone :D

You've got money for an extra computer but not for a 20 dollar game?

II don´t have money for extra computer, where did you hear that? (btw I have this game)

I have 4 computers in my house, and while sitting at my computer, I can't see any of the other three. You're assuming everyone puts their computers side-by-side?

Oh, we´re talking about local multiplayer (on one PC)

No, because "local" means "at the same computer". Multiple computers are LAN.

[The Cat with the Gat]

Sorry, I didn´t know that

LAN = "Local Area Network".

When you hear "local multiplayer" its easy to connect it to "Local Area Network". So the missunderstanding is understandable.

In that case, my bad. I did assume he was referring to LAN.
