Handling "Custom Duels" in the Remake


I'll try to keep this one short, sweet, and to the point.


Custom Duels was a mechanism to let you duel a player, or an AI, with a custom deck & terrain of your choosing. You could test decks you were prototyping, try out some screwed up terrains, and most importantly play with your friend if he brought his save on a memory card.

Things are going to be a bit different as the hardware has changed and we're porting to modern PC. You'll still be able to do local custom duels with someone in the same house as you, but local custom duels will be handled slightly differently, as will saving.


When you start the game, you'll have the option to load or create a new save file. This will load your campaign progress, online & campaign names, and most importantly decks and ranks. When you go to do a custom duel with a local player, they will have the option to load one of the existing saves and select decks from there. By default, their save will be set to your save and they will be able to select a deck you've created. 

Once both players have readied up, you'll have the opportunity to select a preset terrain OR tweak a few custom terrains to your liking for custom duels. These will be saved and ready for access by all players. 

Custom duels are perfect for practicing or just casually playing against an AI in the Duelists of the Roses remake!
