Local Multiplayer??

[Grim]

Hi, i have been interested in this game for a while and have yet made my purchase, but i plan on doing so when it goes on sale again.

And i have been wondering if it has Local co-op/multiplayer that has varieous game-mode and general customization and believe me when i say that i couldn't find any information to-do with the availability of local-mp, no steam user-tags, not in the feature list, not even after some long google searches, it might be my fault, i don't really know..

I do know that it will have local-multiplayer but i don't know if it's already here, since this is an early-access game and if it already does, is it fleshed out? do i have to unlock cars before using them in local-mp?

Thanks.

No, i'm asking if local-multiplayer exists and if it's any good, this may sound fascinating, but i'm one of the people whom uses their PC for local-multiplayer (split-screen multiplayer I.E. COUCH-PLAY), our kind are rarer than unicorns, according to many Steam users..

I don't mean to brag, but i own over 300 games on steam, does it sound reasonable to presume that i pirate games?

Local as in split screen isnt there and I havent heard of it being planned so quite unlikely. There will be local via lan as that is an option not yet enabled.

I dont think many pc games have the split screen option posibly some console ports but I have never used or looked for such options.

Well, if you could use splitscreen, it'd take 2-4 steering wheels if you wanted to play properly...

Oh.. so it's that kind of sim, aren't they implementing controller support? i think that it's already out but isn't completely finished.

Thanks, though.

Yeah, it has controller support, but it's not going to be that fun.

I usually play split-screen with friends at least once every weekend, or play with two different screens if possible.. (I.E. player one using monitor #1 and player 2 using a second monitor)

Oh, well, thanks for being the most helpful commenter and for actually trying to help rather than make some extremely stupid accusations, i'll probably get the game, but for other reasons than local-MP.

I thought that they meant split-screen mode when they said that there will be "offline multiplayer", which is kind of false-advertising, since it was supposed to be a seller for the game.

Uhmm.. Just to clarify; the store page says "offline competitions and multiplayer races". That's two different things.

Yeah, but "offline competitions" is such a vague description of a feature that it could mean anything, isn't local-MP an offline-competition? it kind of is and isn't Player VS A.I an offline-competition? again, it kind of is..

It's like saying a game has multiplayer, that used to be acceptable, but you have to be specific about what you're referring to nowadays, since the term "Multiplayer" has evolved as games evolved to the point of using the internet for multiplayer features.
