can't open Multiplayer game

[Amby]

i tried to open my game and start a multiplayer game with my friend, the option is set to multiplay ON but the game tells me i can't do that and i should check my internet connection or restart steam or my PC i did both but i still can't open multiplay, i know the game is in early acces just wanting to ask if anyone has the same issue?

yep,we cant get into our server we created after hopping off last night...

Same thing happening to my server too so all that time is gone basically can't get on.

Same issue here, I was never able to get it to work unlike someone above.

Edit - To clarify, I'm encountering this issue on the in-game hosting service, and not on a dedicated server.

Same, not sure whats going on

[Amby]

Hmmm we could play for a bit but then the connection died, steam went offline and after that we couldn't join eachother anymore.

I hope this is a bug that gets fixed asap, would be great if we all could Ola with our friends :c

Yes yes I should have added that maybe to my post that I meant the same, My bad :)

Can you believe this game is 92% positive when almost nobody can play multiplayer longer than 2 hours. But I would still give this game a positive right now... so what can I say. haha

Same issue here. Played with 2 friends yesterday on release with an invite code and none of us can join. 2 of us basically lost our game and the host had to turn multiplayer off to continue their game.

1 million copies sold in the first eight hours. Pocketpair wasn't prepared for this and the servers are obviously getting overloaded. Betting they are setting up a more robust environment for facilitating the multiplayer load right now with all the money they made. Just have to be patient and they will get it up and running as soon as possible.

I could not play with a friend unless we got a uniq name for our server (not dedicated). It might be the issue, if you chose a quite generic name.

Also can't get into my own locally hosted world. Sometimes it works after multiple tries, but after the hotfix it doesn't seem to matter how many times i try.

Yea maybe it was the last patch? I guess we might just be patient and wait a bit, I am sure they will fix this

Pretty sure servers are dying. Like, even tho it's supposed to directly host through your own pc, it has something to do with their servers for initial connections and everything so with 500,000 online players it's kinda just dying and having a hard time. That's my guess.

Multiplayer still not working for me

We had this issue, but then windows decided to remind us to add an exception for Palworld on firewall, and then it worked, so be sure to check that, all working fine for us now
