What do you guys think about games that incorporate mechanics that either force or incentivize players to function as a team unit? An example of such a mechanic would be the scoutmaster in the hit game (still active) Peak that attacks players moving too far away from the group and leaving them behind.

Like in REPO when you have no strength and you rely on your teammates to carry heavy stuff.

Feel free to complain about the several other thinly-veiled generals instead, most of which are just porn as opposed to, you know, playing actual fucking videogames. You hate PEAK threads because you hate the thought of others having fun without you.

>>732177310
its a co op multiplayer game, it make sense that you're expected to stay together, if you just want to run ahead alone play solo

I'm hoping they do literally anything with The Looker in a future update. Bastard is too smug about something.
>>
>>732177310
I feel like it's a pretty big failing with PEAK that it doesn't do enough to actually encourage cooperation. The scoutmaster wouldn't need to exist if there were more benefits to sticking together.

>>732187196
that's a really good point,
I'm thinking maybe a mechanic where you gain some morale(extra stamina) over time if you stay close to other scouts, on a percentage based on how many scouts are nearby or something like that.

Yes, more things like that would be welcome. The big thing, in my opinion, is that sticking together will inevitably mean going slower (you can't all be climbing that wall simultaneously and sometimes the ledge only fits so many people) and going slower has a very clear and tangible cost. Hunger is always rising and food is a limited resource, night is approaching, and the next downpour or blizzard could happen at any moment.

At the moment, I don't feel that the benefits to sticking together are actually significant enough to definitively outweigh those costs, and that's a problem. You shouldn't only be sticking together because you want to be nice to your friends or because the scout master will punish you for not doing it.

The issue with this guy is having some rando run away backwards enough to spawn him at the people who were playing properly. Cause he doesn't spawn over dead people falling.
