SurrounDead Needs Multiplayer

[DEMON]

I've literally found this game about an hour ago due to loving games like DayZ which is my goto survival game. This game has that kind of feel, mixed with some Unturned in there.

I've played it for a good amount of time and I must say, it's got a lot of potential. I feel strongly that it needs a multiplayer mode (or main menu option) where you can join servers whether there's official servers (I can understand that it's quite costly) or community servers (like locally hosted ones or by server providers).

It would give that extra layer of fun, exploration and overall combat feel. You'd be able to PvP on servers against other players, build bases and they'd have a purpose and more.

Another cool idea along with the multiplayer idea and servers idea is adding a workshop on steam, allowing others to make mods like guns, vehicles, admin tools and more.

Now before people decide to come at me, yes I'm aware that the dev/devs are focused on stuff such as bugs, glitches and overall just trying to get a solid foot on their game before potentially going crazy with updates and yes, I know the game came out in 2022 but I just felt to give some ideas.

That's all from me, do with it what you will.

According to the dev; it's on the roadmap; but fairly far into the future. I think he wants to nail down the basic dynamics of the game; combat, skills, inventory system (which is currently on the experimental mode; if you want to test it out), before he will feel comfortable opening the game to multiplayer.

I personally could take it, or leave it in regards to the multiplayer functionality, but I do feel that it could be a good addition to the game; so long as it's optional and not mandatory.

Yeah I completely understand that. It be cool if it was like a separate mode, so you still have the option of just playing alone but then you do have the option of playing multiplayer with/or against other players.

No, I think multiplayer; maybe up to four players; but where the number of zombies scale to fit the number of players active in the game; keeping it challenging, and engaging.

See now that's a solid idea.

I agree and also i agree its worth the wait, co op or whatever we get when it comes i'm sure will support mass online play but not force it on to players which would be bad for this game.

Sure its a nice to have, but lots of other developments in the pipeline before that.
