View Full Version : Can I play online with > 1 local player?

Maybe I'm being stupid, but I can't figure out how 2 people on the same couch can play online with friends. Both the wife and I have Gold Live accounts, and would like to play Worms 2: Armageddon with a friend across town over XBL. We've tried it with Private Matches and it doesn't work.

The person 'running the game' invites the other person on the couch, but when that person accepts the invite, they don't make it into the game.

Are we missing something, or is this something that simply isn't available?

Thanks in advance,
Jonman

It's a long time requested feature but unfortunately it's not supported.

Although I don't play worms on the 360, its a feature thats also missing from w1 on ps3.

It would be interesting to know why they don't allow multiple connection from a single console.
I find it highly unlikely that it's because of people teaming up and cheating since that would be easily avoidable by not allowing it on ranked games or only in private games or something similar. An option when you create a server if you want to allow it or not would work. Probably other ways around it as well.

Hopefully they'll allow it in future versions. :(

Thanks for clueing me in.

Such a trick missed on the part of Team 17. Worms is all about several warm butts on the same couch.
