Share mode abuse - A player gets unfairly strong.
#1
I played some games where the opponent did turn on share mode, and then the host get 2-3 times his start money, cuz at least 1 guy did give him all the money at start in share mode. It's kinda suck when the host get heavy tank at once in normal game more -.-
Also I've seen insane weapons on red player, which instantly owned the other team and they win in about 10-15 min. A Few who abuses the cheat this way, ruins the share game. Also 2 infernals with frost laser in a urush game is quite unfair. Although pooling makes other players "inactive" tinkers, it's like concentrated leavers gold on 1 player. Even if they might feed, the results of a super strong player is unfair.


A solution to this annoying problem, is that if host types -share, perhaps sharing gold should be allowed after after 2 min, when the message appear, share will be unlocked if allowed by host. At least 2 min delay should in some degree stall this tactic. If they going to pool, perhaps it's worth the 2 min.


Someone who has other opinions? I don't see this as a tactic, but more as a abuse.
