We'll be playing this with Qpo later today as long as we don't get more people for PA (or enough people for a full team in Path of Exile).

[15:54:18] icycalm: Are you up to play something?
[15:57:15] Qpo: not right now, have to be in a meeting in an hour and gotta get something in my stomach and prepare a bit before I go there
Qpo: would love to play something once I'm back though
icycalm: if no one else wants to play we'll have to find a 2-player game. I am thinking AoE 2 HD (it has co-op), but I don't want to make you spend more money if you can't afford it...
Qpo: I want to play AoE 2 though, I've only played it very little and someone would always spam a cheat code to get some fucking racer cars that ruined everything
icycalm: racer cars?
Qpo: if we can get it working pirated it be great, otherwise I can buy it as long as it's not full price
Qpo: yeah you got some weird black cars that hade miniguns or lasers mounted in the back
Qpo: was a cheat code
icycalm: lol
Qpo: we were playing single-player though
icycalm: But I want to play on Steam for the achievements
Qpo: ah, I see
icycalm: lol
Qpo: lol
icycalm: I don't like being level 1 noob
Qpo: you were joking right?
icycalm: nope
Qpo: oh I see
Qpo: at first I took you seriously but when you said lol I thought you were joking
icycalm: My essays are about principles
icycalm: but principles don't always apply lol
Qpo: haha
icycalm: I like achievements as much as anyone
Qpo: well the game is under 20€ so it won't have that much impact on my budget
icycalm: I also like sweets even most of them are bad for me and I know it
icycalm: ok let's buy it then
Qpo: yeah, but later, I really gotta eat and prepare now
icycalm: k, see you later
Qpo: cya
icycalm: try to get the expansion deal, because it offers an extra-huge map size that will make the game more fun: http://store.steampowered.com/app/239550/
icycalm: 28 euros...


From what I remember from the original, you could play with around eight players total, two of which could be co-oping it, so if other people can set up more teams of two we'll include them in our game, otherwise we'll play against the maximum number of AIs. Might also check the MP scene out at some point. I never tried that in the original.

Try to get the expansion too if you want in, because of the extra map size.
