So I was thinking
What if you don't want to play as a team . Co-op is great fun , but there are players who like to solo online .
So how can we do this ?
For hire ? Players you can buy , by performance in games. Maybe have their own tavern ? But sitting about in a tavern waiting for someone to buy you would be boring .
Can you join battles and affect the game that way? What about the balancing issues there?
Am looking for more creative ideas than 1 vs 1 games . Something that adds more depth
I am not sure if I understand your point, but do you mean that you want to be able to play the game by queuing solo? If yes, then it's already done, even in a very team-oriented games, so I wouldn't worry about solo people not being able to find a match for themselves just because they happen to not have friends, etc. I would even go as far as to say that most of matches in such games are probably played out by complete randoms who are bunched together after entering a queue.
