LAN multiplayer: two player pick one area, one on one side, one the other (could be regional rather than local) each fort knows the other exists, and they're at !WAR!.

no holds barred multiplayer. they could co operate, or they could fight. join as one fort against the hostiles or fight to death. only rule. there can be only one standing.

Wouldn't work unless the game could be played effectively without pausing for designations and stuff, is the main roadblock, though there are plenty of others.  We've been over this before.

It's useful to keep a ‼torch‼ handy.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're a troll, rather than a truly staggering idiot who didn't make the barest effort to search for a multiplayer thread, which surely number in the hundreds, if not thousands.

I don't really have anything to contribute to this thread, since everything that has been said has already been said. I just wanted to say that the song's stuck in my head now.

    Try to make a contribution. If you like a suggestion, say why you like it and try to refine it if possible. If you don't like a suggestion, say why and be civil about it.
    Be respectful.  If you don't intend to show respect, do not post.  If there is a problem, use the "Report to moderator" button on a post in the thread.  Do not handle it on your own.
    New posters will not always follow the guidelines above, but if you aren't making an honest effort to be helpful, do not post.  The best option is to ignore redundant threads entirely, especially if somebody helpful has already replied.
    Joking around is fine up to a point, of course, but don't be abusive or derail somebody's thread entirely.


WTF guys?

 BEFORE POSTING A SUGGESTION

    Check our development pages. You can find everything in one place at this link.
    Search for an existing thread. If you find a thread similar to your idea, you can bump it to expand on the suggestion, even if the thread is old.  However, please do not bump threads just to show support.

i know. i didn't scroll up.

seriously though. how do you turn this thread off?
