Better family play: Worms Armageddon or Worms Clan Wars?

Posting this for lastmousestanding since his internet's being poopy.



"So the Humble Bundle Weekly Sale has a Worms bundle with a 4 pack of the newer Clans Wars at $15 dollar tier and Worms Armageddon at the $1 dollar tier. Ive played Armageddon back in the day and its a nice solid multiplayer, but i was wondering if the much newer version in Clan Wars was worth it and if the update is too complex to just play casually with family?

So which has a better mutliplayer for playing with family: Worms Armageddon or Worms Clan Wars?"

Dunno about Clan Wars, but previous 2D Worms were pretty much the same as Armageddon. Reading about the features, Clan Wars is pretty much identical, too, but with; better graphics, water physics, more customization, worm classes (4), more friendly interface (campaign and stuff), less available add-ons that you have to pay for them, but in exchange you don't have to work with the fans add-ons unfriendly methods (though inserting user-made maps is piece of cake).

So, yeah, it depends on how much you want friendlier graphics and interfaces (for you and those you'll play with) and if the few perks are really worth it. (Though paying a mere 1$ on Humble is quite silly, but your call). Some new PCs and Windows 7-8 users have a few retrocompatibility issues (like not having the up-page/up-down archaic button to chat online or color issues), everything fixable in unfriendly ways.

Nonetheless, I love Worms.

Armageddon was fun. Klan wars looks like the same basic gameplay but a little over complicated. It's not that it's hard to understand, It's just too many things going on.

Based on what I've seen, it looks like clan wars is Armageddon with more weapons and different classes of worms. Have been looking at getting clan wars except no one I know has it.
