Multiplayer Question

from Sins Forums

So are you able to start near your friends in Multiplayer yet? I hated having to restart games to try and get in the same system to start with my friends when we played against the AI, and I was wondering if this was fixed yet before i go about buying any expansions. If it hasn't oh well I'll come back again later and try again.

Custom and set maps  = yes

Random maps = no

No.  However, you can download custom maps where the starting positions are fixed and play those.  Some of them are set so that allies start near one another.  Here are two packs with auto-installer files that you can try:

http://TinyURL.com/Sins9 (my map pack)

http://TinyURL.com/Sins6 (Darvin's custom map compilation pack--get the file named Setup.exe)

The maps in my pack are all "start near your allies" maps.  Note that Circle of Death and Death~a~Whirl have a small error in the starting position for two of the ten players (it's not fatal for comp stomp games against the AI).
