People Co-Playing on this world.

[DeletedUser2722]

A lot of what you describe as being unfair is covered by account sitting. Having two people play vs one person, is unfair. That is an undeniable fact. Of course co-playing is a way to win. You automatically gain a massive advantage over people playing there own accounts. Which is why I don't like it.

As I said, most sitters do not take care of sat accounts as they would their
own account... players who need sitters put a strain on the tribe, too.

We all have our own life styles and circumstances in the RL, so why should
people suffer in-game to an opponent who is inferior in skill, because they
have RL commitments?

There is no pause button within TW as it's a real-time game, so co-playing
gives players with RL commitments the ability to keep things fair, save their
blushes and humiliate their inferior rivals, whilst not having to suffer in RL.

If you were not able to get online as much as you do, would you still feel it's
unfair, get pwned by a n00b, or would you simply quit playing?

For most who love the game, co-playing is the way forward.

To be honest we have the best single account and the best co-played account arguing here, and this could be endless. I dont have a co-player but see the benefits in having one who is capable.

Lol, it's just a friendly debate between two tribe mates! :icon_rolleyes:

Anyway, the view will all depend of your individual circumstances -- those
with time will be apposed to co-playing, whilst those with less time due to RL
commitments, playing on other worlds etc, may like the idea of co-playing.

Either way, the name of the game has always been to win as a team... no
individual records and achievements come before this.

so if if he joins, would you merge into him Macaiodh?

I would consider it TBH but what an epic that nobling out would be

Hehe yeah, Abdo co playing makes no difference to me, as an account it only makes my tribe stronger, it does make it a little more difficult to take my rank one back, but when I do I will have the smug satisfaction I am beating two people at once to maintain my position

Lol, I sense a little envy...

... rank 1 belongs to best players, thus it's OURS! :icon_cool:

This is also your only world, where as we have 2x other 13 mio+ accounts on
.net to tend to, not to mention university and businesses in the real world to
manage.

If this was our sole world, I'm quite comfortable myself and Aga would both
hold rank 1 and 2, however, we would merge anyway as co-playing is much
more fun... with the right person, ofc!

At the end of the day, though, this is a team game and it was never
"originally intended to be played, as an individual achievement" as you
stated earlier...

... so it really matters little who is rank one -- what matters is we destroy ALL
before us, before having a W1N death-match to prove who the best player
(not farmer) really is! :icon_razz:

However, the rivalry between us is healthy for our team -- just like a couple
of strikers fighting for a starting place in a football team, it keeps us hungry
for growth, however... we must ensure we do not point-whore, lol!

Anyway, I'm still no where near as active as I can and should be -- but once
I have delegated a few RL activities, you can expect the gap between us to
widen, so...

... you better get maxing those villages out, or find yourself a co-player! :icon_wink:

I love your arrogance Abdo, it is indeed impressive.

I myself have found a suitable co-player and I dare say it'll shake up the rankings a bit, but it will no doubtedly increase 'our' rank and our enjoyment of the game.

Each to there own tho...

Without a coplayer, I don't think I would be able to play TW, my life is just too hectic now
