Multiplayer?

[BanCaer]

Will there be multiplayer or coop?

[Menphues]

I just come across the game and seen it was single player which is sad because the amount of fun with a few friends would be amazing. Could so easily kill friends and really mess around making good videos and I feel this game would excel at multiplayer and my friends would buy but single sadly they would not.

Also it’s on Steam and not exclusive elsewhere so they got my vote and money when it’s ready to prepurchase if possible.

Okay, thank you very much for responding. Your game looks very promising and I am really interested in playing it :D

While I think that's a good idea Iain, your team should keep in mind how much life this could add to the game in years to come. For example, people still play Viscera Cleanup Detail to this day because it has the ability to be enjoyed with friends!

I just hope it hasn't been completely written off... Would be awesome to tear down massive ships with friends!

This. A game like this is most fun played with friends, and only being able to play it alone makes me unsure if it's "worth a buy" so to say.

Well that sucks. It would be an insta-buy for me if there were online co-op.

Damn, sad to hear it is SP only...

Still looks good and dont doubt it will be good game, but expectation of co-op sold buddy and me on this.

We never know - might be implemented along the way as the VR aspect of the game, it seems they're building the core functionality before implementing other aspect of the gameplay

I am hoping that is the case. EA is months away, so still time for a lot of news and changes.

"We are currently focused on building the best single player experience we can"

technically, the dev didn't say that this will always be a single player game.

i really really wish at one point they will consider implementing multiplayer coop. Imagine being able to break ships part with friends, explore the derelict ship together. that's imo a cool concept

[Vectorspace]

Given the immense number of physics objects that can be created on the fly by cutting & explosions, I imagine it would be mightily difficult to make that synchronise accurately across multiple players.

So while I would love to see a multiplayer version, personally I would rather see a great single player sooner and multiplayer later, than have to wait until both are ready.

And besides, if enough of us buy an initial single player release, maybe that will fund multiplayer development?

People need to stop asking for multyplayer like seriously your the reason the game industry is in such a bad state.

No need to be toxic, just asked if there is coop planed. Coop is never a bad thing.
