Dedicated servers?

[ItzKrogzy]

Hello all.

So I start to be tired to keep my game running so my friends can continue to play, even though I'm not.
I have seen this in other earlly access games before and it has always ended in getting servers so we can all play when we want.
Do anybody know anything about this topic?

Thanks.

I have the same question. Can I rent a server as I have for Valheim?

I wouldn't expect it anytime soon. It would require a lot of work. They know people been asking about it, but its very far down on the list afaik.

There's so much I like about this game and I'm excited to see it getting better, but likely will not pick it up again without dedicated servers. It's a cool concept, despite some aspects being a bit painful, and something I'd have fun sharing with family/friends. If the developer doesn't make that pleasant for us, I'll just end up playing something that does. Maybe I'm just not the customer they want, and that's ok too.

primary issue would be raids against both your village and outposts AND the AI villages. The simple solution would be of course, only allow raids when a player is on, or only at certain times of a day.

What is yours, his and hers on a dedicated server setup? Would they spawn a reclamation party for every player online? How does that work? Take a game such as 7d... Once the blood moon happen they will spawn waves for every player on the server.

What if you log off during the evening, then log on next day and find there is nothing to do except mundane boring things like cut wood, because other players have cleared out all bandit camps etc while you where sleeping?

The idea of just make it server based, isn't enough alone. You would need a lot of work added to accommodate the players. What about game story and progress. You liberated all the villages, then what?

I seriously doubt this game will ever have support for servers. But sometimes you DO get surprised. Time will tell.
