Any hope for Local multiplayer?

[BOT Quentin]

I'm interested in this game but I'm a bit tired of playing online competitive games and would rather have a competitive local spitscreen game, is there any hope that this will receive local matches or should I just forget about this game. It looks like a fun game to play with friends but I'm old fasioned and prefer my friends to be in the same room as me when we hang out.

Its not halo, man. You cant split space combat!

Starfox did it.

At its core, GoD Factory is a 4v4 game, which really does not translate well to split screen. At best you'd have to do your entire team on 1 screen vs others, and the demand for that is too low for me to see the devs prioritizing their super-limited time on it anytime soon.

That said, you could in theory get 4 allies playing on 1 bigscreen TV, if you wanted to spend, uh, a non-trivial amount of money on a machine powerful enough to run 4 copies of the game in vboxes?

No plan for split screens, but we'd like to make a LAN compatible version later. this is not in our short time plan though.

awe shame, this game looks like fun with friends. although Eiko that could be possible, my machine is a little dated but I've got stupid amounts of ram and an i7 and when the LAN compatible version comes out I could have replaced my 7970s with whaterver and I have a 970 MOBO and 16gb of ram sitting around looking for a processor, get an 8core amd and throw the 7970s in it, I might have two machines able to do 4v4 local splitscreen interesting idea.
