dedicated server

[Roald]

Will the game have dedicated server ?

[AfLIcTeD]

For? It's a single player game.

[TheOriginalMark:-)]

I imagine the OP means for coop and the answer is we don't know yet (I suspect not though).

[mapet]

I HIGHLY doubt it. The game has a vastly international audience and a small developer (awesome, invested and extremely talented, but still small in numbers), which would make an operation like that rather unlikely. But with pure co-op (not mmo pvp) approach local servers should do completely fine.

Yes, dedicated server for Medieval Dynastiy MP would be really nice.
The could be a nice Roleplay-Game, especially for Streamers.

I don't ever see this happening. Really.no incentive for the devs to try to maintain a server. Insuspect it will be more like Valheim where you run your own server. Especially since I doubt more than a few people will be able to play on a map at the same time.

I am not quite sure everyone here is on the same page on what "dedicated server" does mean...

So, is there now a dedicated server release or does one player have to be the host when playing coop?

One player has to host and invite others to join with a code. There are no plans for dedicated servers.

No plans for a dedicated server? Well I have no plans of buying the game until that's changed. A dedicated server can be just a bare bones version of the game. I prefer to make both server and client right from the beginning. I have a feeling the developers are using prefabricated tools for multiplayer and don't know how to make a dedicated server.

What is the point and added value of a dedicated server? I play with a friend in coop mode with the current host-system and it works fine. Also the voice chat via steam tool.

To be able to set up a game server on a dedicated system, sitting in a data center which is always online and running so friends can play, when the host can't.

Dedicated server lets the game run 24/7 so the players can join and play anytime they want and do not have to wait for the host to be online to play.

Co op one player is the host using thier PC and when they stop playing no one can play.

How would a dedicated server work with this game, since everything is time sensitive? Would cause more problems than it would solve.

[BcxP_McFly]

Never, never, never release a coop role game without a dedicated server packaged in a Docker container. Like Valheim, Satisfactory etc. you need the posibility to run a server, so your friends can build the world without a game hoster! Never, never!

The dedicated server game would pause when no one is online.

This would work the same way as 7days2die does when no one is online. Game time and functions pause till there is a player present on the server. Also for the vast majority in here that don't seem to understand what a typical dedicated server is please step out. This isn't a recommendation for a MMO scale single server that the devs have to maintain.. . This is a request for a barebone server to be hosted without the game having to be ran. It can be windows or linux based and allow providers to sell and host dedicated instances for players ran by the players on a personal level. AKA Host Havoc, Fragnet, gameservers, shockbyte, bisecthosting,apex, etc...
