What about Local Server hosting

[็]

Title ^
I would to host my own server with friends!
Is there any guides?

[Ashar]

thats literally how the game works already, problem is if the hoster stops playing, everyone else gets kicked too

Yeah need like a dedicated server mode something like the half life dedicated server would be great.

hey! so as Ashar said above, playing on embedded server means it's locally hosted so you can already play that way with your friends, but indeed there's no host migration, so if the host leaves, their world will be shut down for everyone. dedicated custom servers is something we'll hopefully be able to add in the future, post-EA

Would be cool the way half-life 1 does dedicated server is great maybe something to look at its basically a GUI that with a console based server built in.

ooof lack of dedicated server is a killer for me. I play these types of games with friends and we are all in varying time zones, from west coast usa to sweeden only being able to play peer to peer is making this a i'm not so sure if I'll buy it and that goes for the rest of my friends too. my machine is 128gb, 32 cores so its capable of hosting our games which is why I bought all that ram.
