So I'm playing a multiplayer game, just generally helping someone out who has all the single player achievements, and wants to get the other two. The one I play with is a decent guy, but at some point two guys enter his kingdom and start hitting on buildings, destroying them. He messages "oh no, they're back" and goes offline. I  boot all 3 of these morons, but they manage to demolish half the village, obviously starting with the banner towers.

So the guy I was playing with is gone, he lost his save game, I'm all alone in a game where I was having fun a minute ago...and these idiots move off to ruin someone else's game.

I filed complaints for cheating, even though they don't technically cheat, there's no better description available. Still this is sort of a downer...

Anyone any ideas how to stop this?

Currently the common solution for people is to save whenever anyone joins, then kick/give feedback/etc., then restart from the save point.

But, there is a title update coming out in a couple weeks (hopefully) that changes things so only the host and the host's friends can break things. (If you friend someone they will need to exit and rejoin to get the breaking ability--it only checks when you join the game.)

That will be great!  I had nine banners last night and then some dope knocked them all down.  So close to 200!

Too bad you couldn't kick their avatar like u can a kefling.

Oh, since this thread has been bumped, I thought I'd mention that the game has now been updated and only the host and the host's friends can break stuff. Hopefully this helps solve the jerk problem.

  Thanks Dajuse for the heads up.

You Gotta Go There To Come Back

Yep. If you wanted to test it out, you can join someone else's game and you'll see you can't even swing once at a building. :)
