Ive already made a bunch of steam forums about my idea > http://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/10/558755529520979960/<br /><br />Here's My Idea and what i said.<br /><br />Log In to Multiple Steam Accounts Simultaneously in SteamOS/Big Picture<br />The last gen and current gen of consoles allowed multiple users to sign in simultaneously on a singular console under their own PSN or XboxLive accounts/gamertags while being linked to one of the 4 controllers. 8 simultaneous users for XboxOne!.<br /><br />The benefits of simultaneous users meant the local players could access and earn achievements for their accounts, furthermore they even carried cloud saves, those mii things, unlocks, game progression and all sorts for both offline and online multiplay. <br /><br />Its a nice seamless experience being linked to a controller when going from game to game if your playing with mates on the same device (console/pc). <br /><br />I feel having a consistent profile attached to your own 360/PS/Steam Controller adds a personal touch that makes their account progression feel more meaningful. <br /><br />Unionized progression between friends you know is very addictive and competative, Its like all those facebook games that every one nags you to play to get you on the facebook leaderboard.<br /><br />Multiple local users keeps the gamer more in touch with their profile when they go to a friends house and play on their steam machine, it adds a bit of friendly competition with your own circle of mates. <br /><br />If you want steam achievements to really take off, local multi users is the way forward. Personally I was never was big on achievements but honestly to some of my mates it was their life, and if it means something to your friends it'll likely mean more to you when they brag about it.<br /><br />This is definitely a good opportunity to pick up another target audience on the steam boat, Xbox fans are big on achievements, that is why they transfered 360 achievments across to the XboxOne. I believe if Steam Machine really wants to compete with consoles then we need to take away every reason to be a console gamer. This idea could also integrate with family sharing with the users logged into the same device.Geoff Ledgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16071392457368896965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289162238736689662.post-19142017442962351512014-01-13T11:03:55.568-08:002014-01-13T11:03:55.568-08:00Would you really want to play Samurai Gunn with ev...Would you really want to play Samurai Gunn with even a fraction of a second of latency?STEEVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01503709153709002931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289162238736689662.post-89329168057367937812014-01-10T17:55:39.092-08:002014-01-10T17:55:39.092-08:00All of this is fine and dandy.

And, you know, give the game a chance to have at least *some* success?<br /><br />I'd love to play things like Samurai Gunn, but what is the point when the only multyplayer is offline?Captain White Phoenixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09017275430250022106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289162238736689662.post-35420463989561737172014-01-10T13:42:27.114-08:002014-01-10T13:42:27.114-08:00Vegeta897:

If nothing happens when you press buttons on the controller, it is probably not discovered by the game for some reason.Sam Ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13388052327828807656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289162238736689662.post-71953893583403422922014-01-10T13:25:09.233-08:002014-01-10T13:25:09.233-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Vegeta897https://www.blogger.com/profile/03928974222020746681noreply@blogger.com
