Game Replays

[7h30n]

I apologize if there is a topic for this but I couldn't find it through search.

I believe this was discussed already but the reason for creating the topic is hope that Team17 crew notices it.

For those who are wondering what I'm talking about:

- full game round/match replays that could be saved and viewed at any time

This is already in Worms: Armageddon and it does wonderful things:

- easily observed (and thus replicated) bugs would help in patching the game (Thanks Wormetti for this one!)

- replays can be proof of winning a match (important in competitive games -> ESL, WropersLeague etc.)

- watching a favourite game and showing it to friends

- makes recording funny moves and uploading them to youtube a lot easier (see this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2x4l6Nn3VQ )

I hope Team17 will read this and have it on their mind if not as an awesome feature in a patch for Reloaded at least for the next 2D Worms that (I hope) will come to PC.

It would also help with development since they could easily replicate bugs.

And most importantly, Run's Worst.Shot.Ever. (http://www.nanacide.com/worstshotever/) could be expanded to WR too. :D

Exactly! I think this would really help Worms: Reloaded in the long run.

Edit: Maybe I should open up this topic on Steam forums, I get the feeling Team 17 checks there more often.
Does anyone know do I have to make a new account on Steam forums or can I use the one I use for Steamworks?

If by Steamworks you mean a regular Steam account to play games, then no.
The Steam forums require a separate account.

And I'd suggest using a different e-mail address and password too.

Thanks! That explains why my normal account doesn't work there :)
