No Multiplayer is a Deal Breaker

[Rio]

My wife and I like playing together with each other and our friends, so to not have a strong and flexible multiplayer experience really has caused us to lose 99% of our interest in the title. We both hoped this could be a suitable replacement for Second Life in terms of a fully updated engine, modern graphics, etc, etc. It looks like a beautiful single player experience, and I'm sure there will be room for expansion and growth, but at this moment we've reserved ourselves to the fact that it won't support modded servers, multiplayer, and doesn't show enough potential to become a new sandbox experience. In a perfect world, all those things would be packaged with the release and we'd have the ability to host our own servers or for lack of better terms, grids, where we could systemically connect with other customizable cities from other server hosts.

how does multiplayer hurt you in any way? exactly, it doesnt. stop saying no to things that obviously a lot of people want. its not even affecting you if they add it.

I agree—it would be a dealbreaker if there’s no multiplayer. I want to enjoy the game with others.

to the bunch of people disagreeing with this comment: I can’t stand people who call multiplayer a dealbreaker just because they personally don’t want it, even though a co-op mode wouldn’t affect them at all. If you don’t want multiplayer, don’t use it. But don’t try to shut it down just because it doesn’t fit your preference—others *do* want it.

Its the same thing as people calling a game not being multi player a deal breaker ...

That goes both ways.
Also it does affect others as it means time taken away from the rest of the development of the game or things potentially getting sacrificed so they can add MP.

it does affect me as they must mold the game and shift ressources and times to multiplayer.

lol another dude who's talking about stuff they know nothing about so they talk out of their ass instead as usual,

Tell me then...

Why would a 3D Artist, stop working on making clothes/objects and start working on code infrastructure for MP?

Why would a 2D Artist, stop working on making Textures or UI and start working on code infrastructure for MP?

Why would an Animator, stop working on making animations and start working on code infrastructure for MP?

Why would a VFX or SFX, stop working on making VFX/Sound?music and start working on code infrastructure for MP?

Wait... maybe a person HIRED to code Multiplayer would be only focused on making that aspect work? Could it be? Shocker....

The only overlapping resources are Production, Design and QA, all of which any half decent software house has plenty to spare on a bad day.
