When I was at my friend's house, staduim, he joined a game a melee game. It was a 3vs3. Sure it sounds pretty normal, but there was one thing very different...You shared units with your allies!!! Is this possible or was I dreaming?!

Nope, never seen it before. Unless its two separate players (with different colors) Building in the same general area to make one big base, I know in the first AoE game you could share units but i have never seen it done on SC Besides if it was 3 v 3 and two players controlled each team then you would need 12 players, there are only 8 on SC (Not counting neutral players)

Team Melee game mode. Not available in UMS.

You could edit the *.got to create the same affects and somehow use the UMS coding set up of the *.got to enable it to work in that system.

At least not yet, but I still do believe it is possible for this to occur... it just has not yet been discovered.

Well... I think the data for unit sharing is in the Team Melee coding, so you'd need a mod I think, and I doubt that data could be transferred over maps, but if different unti numbers screwed tings up, we have no idea what cool things could be accomplished,

No i think it was team unit sharing mode, because i saw that 2 people were controlling the same unit. Like u have ur control, then you saw a dotted circle around urs symbolising that someone else was controlling. I'm pretty sure that it wasn't the same colors.

Team Melee is fun, can't belive you guys hardly even know if it.

thats definetly team melee zergling
team melee is so funny to play, everybody's different gameplay styles clash and people one another for sharing minerals, ah the days.

So is team melee still a mode that everyone can play because i dont recall seeing it

Just create a melee map and instead of making the name as a melee change it to team melee. (place where you change things like topvs bottom 1v7 3v5 etc) It is fun. You can piss the guy off by constatantly cancelingh the constructing building, click on the unit and continusly press the "S" button to keep it stopping.

Haha yeah, theres also Team FFA too I think.

oops i meant is there a team melee where u can share units?

Team Melee -- Melee where your whole team can argue where the very of a unit should go!

Team Melee -- Option where mainly friends work together as 1 to defeat the opponent!

mwahaha

I just looked and saw it! THATS SO AEWSOME , only if people would play it...O well I'll get some friends!

I love Team Melee, Actually a logn time ago someone made a UMS/Teammelee patch but i cant remember who or where I saw it. I used it too...

I'd love to help but i don't have much experience with GotEd myself. Few do, its not used often...

team melee is horrible for many reasons:

1. Unless your teammate does the exact same startegy it gets annoying.
2. Your teammate often canels units or buildings you make or builds something right before you so you dont have enough minerals.
3. 1 player may end up doing all the work and another player gets the win(havent tested)

Blizzard intended Team Melee to have one person build and the other attack so you could do 2 things at the same time. With all the noobs on B.net it didnt work out very well and died.

It would be kool to see this in a game though...

Its like RP, great between friends, its the best in a LAN. Actually i want to get the Pro-Gamers to give this ago...

it might have been the same player colors

Exile we went over this alrdy...

I really want to try a team melee, i will try to start one up the next game night (might not be there but ill try)

this may sound werid, but I think maybe their is a way to put more than one Player(or more to it a TEAM/force) on a Start point, cus in team melee your whole team starts at one point on the map, maybe we be looking at it wrong, and thinking how we get units shared and not at the start points. Maybe thier give some of the higher more trigger or program players ideas? cus i do not think the game coding changes its only th start points, or maybe their is a New type start point we not found called ->Team start or something?

A Start Location is a unit. We KNOW every unit. Therefore there is no 'special all secret new' Start Location.

There are unknown units that do nothing.

All it is, is that the *.got is triggered and created far differently to the other *.got like Melee, Free For All and UMS.

This works very great in warcraft 3. In all games you can put share control. You can also give recources. And upon leaving that player gives full control to his allies.
Share control option doesnt allow you to build stuff only control army which is basically what UrMom said. Blizzard Perfected the method.
