Crossplay multiplayer

[Eightball]

That's not multiplayer. It's crossplay, sure, but it's not multiplayer.

That's about as multiplayer as taking turns swapping a controller on any game, that doesn't make it multiplayer. You can swap the controller on any game that literally exists already. That's some pretty poor false advertising there, had my hopes up.

Multiplayer requires multiple players. This only ever has one. Apparently you can swap the controller though. Shame.

Will you keep asking the same question that has been answered multiple times?

Because they don’t know how to use a search bar, probably... xD

Nope.

Interestingly enough, the store page does say: Cross platform multiplayer.

Not sure if it is a mistake or what.

I guess it meets the definition of multiplayer, but its hardly that. I thought it would be like parkitects. Instead its just sending your save to a friend so they can edit it, which literally exists in every single game on the planet that allows you to get your saves locally.

If that is the definition of multiplayer then every single computer game in existence is multiplayer by the same definition. It's literally just pausing the game and passing the controller.

Except that you need more than one copy of the game to do it, ♥♥♥♥ that's a downgrade even, lol.

Ya thats what im saying, i personally think they should remove the tag/feature as it is misleading. Its like if i sold you soup and handed you a warm bowl of water with some salt and a few raw veggies in there.

lmao. Yeah they need to remove that flag, it's false advertisement. This really should not count as multi player. I believe the definition of multi player is multiple players.

You can't even argue that turn based games are the same thing, because in those cases, even in the game of Chess, taking turns, you SHARE the board TOGETHER and use YOUR OWN pieces.

This is the equivalent of playing some chess, packing the board up and posting it to your mate and then letting them play some chess for a while and they send it back to you when you they done.

Looks like they removed the steam tag but left it in their game description.

They need to wipe every reference to this feature as being multi player. You need simultaneous players to be multi player, this never achieves that standard.

They can still advertise the feature. Just call it in-client save sharing or something. Because that's all it is.
