I think we need full-map multiplayer

[Tao314zdin]

With the open world settings it becomes difficult to find coop or invasions nowadays.

Was just clearing some skipped dungeons before NG+ (at rl 140) and not a single invasion with the tongue for around 40 min. Similar situation when I try to find invasion or coop - jumping around map trying it out is not too fun (even at lower level 70 char).

Can we have it active everywhere at once (the invasion finger and those coop bone thingy). Think that would benefit everyone.

You can't find any because most players don't want to engage with MP. People who actually want to engage in MP have set a specific level range (120) which you've passed

120 can invade up to 152 and summon up to 142, so not really. I can't invade 120 that is true, but I specifically mentioned 70 for invasions.

It would be nice if they'd just allow you to join the coop/pvp pool with the effigy, and that would put you in the queue for all areas of the game and just scale your level accordingly for the host.

They don't need to scale, they just need to make you invade/place_effigy_sign everywhere on the map where you have been already. Just that.

LOL if that's true then this post wouldn't exist. 120 is duel zone, not many at that range do invasion. Most active invasion zone is 70-90 and even that is dead.

The majority of playerbase don't engage in PvP. Changing it to map-wise wouldn't change this. You want active online this isn't the place.

While you can still find invasions by changing area - it will work, you just would not need to jump over the map.

Also what is not true? You do not know how matchmaking range works?

You can't find anyone to invade because barely anyone engage in MP. It doesn't matter if you can search whole map or not. The targets simply aren't there.

You're the one not knowing the range. You want to be invaded yet you don't stay in the lvl range the community agreed on and then cling to "but muh matchmaking range". Activity is decided by the player pool.

You can scrap your char and get more activity while the pool still lasts, or tell yourself you're right and enjoy the barren wasteland :v

Too thick, sorry.

but the map already shows you where people in your level range are active online

It does, but it works about as good as in DS3, except the map is even bigger and more places to try.

I mean what would be the downside of making it global? I only see the benefits of easier connection. Is selecting specific area to coop/invade even a benefit for anyone?

I think the effigies should be global but the coop/duel signs and invasions should stick to the area. Many people want to play a specific zone

yeah, gotta invade at the beginning of the game so you can kill noobs with RoB, right?

Tf you talking about. Take your inferiority complex and insecurity-ridden idiotic generalizations elsewhere. Blocked

I'd like to see the code. I sat, for 30 min, waiting to get summoned in an "active zone" and then gave up...

[Drukaris]

yeah we need wex dust

[Karpata]

Yeah Elden Ring MP system is junk. Since there is no Humanity and nothing like that to makes solo players invadeable there are basically no targets except for people trying to duel.
The only viable targets for normal invasions are the very few people that try to co-op through an entire area with their friends instead of summoning at the fog gate.
Unless we get a big overhaul don't get your hopes up. There is a Seemless co-op mod in the works which might become a good alternative if successful enough though so fingers crossed.
