Starcraft 2 has a mode like this called Archon Mode, where two players control the same units. The conflicts that can arise from this can be pretty fun to witness.
- cmdrfred 11y agoIt appears the starcraft developers had the same conversation we are having here.
- duskwuff 11y agoA similar mode was present in the original Starcraft, albeit without the cool name. (It was simply called "team melee".)
- hobarrera 11y agoNo, it's a completely different thing. In Archon Mode, two physical players share control of a single in-game player. A lot more coordination is required or they'll both be giving counter-orders most of the time.
- duskwuff 11y agoIt's been a long time since I played team melee, and I've never played Starcraft 2 multiplayer, but reading back, I'm pretty sure they're the exact same thing: http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Team_Melee http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Team_Melee http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Archon_Mode http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Archon_Mode https://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/314e28/archon_mode_vs_team_melee/ https://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/314e28/archon_mo...
