The only multiplayer that belongs in AO/AE is the original 'pass the controller' kind. Anything else is going to feel forced and awkward. Multiplayer cannot be a feature of any game if 'done right'. Sometimes it just doesn't work and is a bad idea. All of the kids suggesting it should not be taken seriously.

However, I think that time trials are an interesting idea, with the OPTION of having a step/time/fart counter in the corner of the screen. I wouldn't mind such a thing for the Paramonian/Scrabanian trials, but for some of the lengthier areas (Monsaic lines, Free fire 2) it would also feel awkward.

I have faith in JAW not to include a multiplayer mode. You guys are smart enough not to listen to arguments made by 12 year olds justifying such a concept with comparisons to COD.
