PLEASE MAKE A PRIVATE SERVER OPTION!

[Alien]

I was trying to play with my friend for the first time in this game and it took so long to find a server that had a short wait time. Please make private servers an option.

That sounds like a great idea.

I'm sure that wouldn't cause even more issues.

Nor would it take any time to implement. Time that could be used fixing other problems.

Maybe you should try being patient instead of screaming about something that won't happen.

Quite frankly, I don't want to play with a bunch of random people. That's why I rent servers for online games. So I'm 100% behind this.

This is not how mmo's really work and they are meant to be played with other people.

This is not a co-op only game or small player servesr like a lot of survival games are.

Devs have already said it's something they'd like to do in the future, thankfully.

"The answer is yes. After we’ve gone live, this will be one of the major priorities for us to tackle. So you guys maybe have your own PVP server, your own PVE server, your own server, etc. So it is possible. I will say nothing is impossible in Starry Studio, because we have a very strong dev team."

the reason I stopped playing is I can't have a private server. I don't want to see people, have people's bases in the way, see all the crap they leave on the ground, etc.. The feel of the game with cluttered servers isn't great at all.

I do believe hard modes will require teams xx (stares at the npc standing still and then shoots in the face and hides behind the rock again just in case! xD)

Of four. You could play on a server with three or seven of your friends, or host a public server with a user curated and moderated experience.

I mean people already pay to have the "low latency private queue" service lol. I mean, I know f2p always includes some freemium, and thats fair, but how are people tolerating this? being put on the low prio queue for not paying? isn't that sort of low prio queue system usually reserved for toxic trolls? is that what we are to them, or do they do things differently in japan?

What sucks is that we don't really get to. I'd like to know if I passed you in the game I could say hello and speak to you as a neighbor without you being a friend first. The current setup prevents spammers, and that's great, but it would be nice if I was able to communicate easier with those around me considering how rare it is.

I could definitely see a scenario a couple years down the line, after they (hopefully) implement private servers, where a group of players get together and decide they want to do all the seasons together consecutively. They could do that. They could also decide that the last couple weeks of a specific scenario aren't worth playing and just skip it to move onto the next scenario. Or maybe they decide they don't need a whole week per phase and want to shorten it to 3 or 4 days. Private servers can be customized to the specific needs of the players using them.
