Teamwork

After jason does everything with bugs and stuff, adding objects or actions that take more than 1 person would really improve the whole teamwork idea. Like if a car was out of kerosine, you could have another person follow you and you both pick it up and bring it back. There's a little bit of this with digging fence posts and removing adobe walls but its still possible alone. Everyone seems, upon birth, to decide on something to do and do that task mostly alone until they die. Like building a house, which could take multiple lives, could take 30 min with someone helping.

Maybe a monolith that takes 4 people with ropes idk


- "The one who plants trees, knowing that he will never sit in their shade, has at least started to understand the meaning of life."
Add books, please Jason.

Re: Teamwork

I think the whole game should be about teamwork, currently you can go all the way up the techtree even if you're alone and you dont really need anybody else.

Communication between players is most of the time very brief and lacks a real purpose since you dont need other people, you can do your own thing by yourself the entire life, i spend a lot of lives barely even talking to others since there's nothing much you need to say except RP stuff or asking where are rabbits,oil etc.

A skill system with jobs would make it so you really need others to progress and every villager is valuable as opposed to now where every villager is interchangeable and remplaceable.

Re: Teamwork

This is a great idea. I'd love if you needed more than one person to do things so it'd encourage teamwork. Such a simple change that would  make the game so much better and more personal.

Re: Teamwork

many things are already much better in tems of 2.
log sawing, needs 2 tools, much less tool swapping with 2 players.
roadbuilding, one on a horse only brings stones, one only places the road and brings food for both (and defends the road against anything deadly.
within a city/road, some people are better more local (females) to only move within placerd stone/wood tiles, and some are better less local (males), who know the surroundings better, and redistribute items ti where they are neded most. walking sure does cost extra food, and stationary players need less shoes/backpack/cloth.
building endtowers, you sure need at least 2 to guard it.
mass murdering, due to first attacker instakilling, it takes 2 players for deadly flanking maneuvers, one person lures, one person traps and stabs back.
