How does Multiplayer work?

[brians]

So quick or maybe not so quick couple questions: (i did search, but i could be blind)
1) If i run a server or locally can a friend join and we can ally up (diplomatically) in the game?
2) Does MP mean PvP and/or PvE?
3) Is their campaign for MP?
4) General question - how doe MP work :) - what do you like it/dislike about MP?

Any help would be much appreciated

1) yeah, basically, although outside of pre-arranged events you're mostly going to be doing 1v1 duels.

2) PvP

3) No, it's just fighting.

4) It's good if you like fighting with real people, provided there are any real people to fight with.

yah that sucky - thx for the reply, time for refund

Looking for a Medieval game that can be open world, MP/Coop, base building, campaign style, trading vs AI - can't seem to find that. Valheim was close like that, but no real sieges on bases (other vikings) or clans wars, etc.

there is some fortress defense scenarios. where there is waves of AI trying to take your castle and you and your coop try to hold the gates for as many waves as you can. worth a try.

Renown might be exactly what your looking for, minus the "campaign style"(kind of a Rust mixed with Mordhau). Not out yet but you can access the beta if you preorder through their site and it looks pretty promising. I'm holding out for the full release

Closet thing would be conqueror's blade...but I don't even know if that game is still running.

1. Regular game and MP are seperate, and completely different, so no you cant do that.
2. No it does not. MP PVP in this game is like an arena. Sort of.
3. No.
4. I dont like this games MP because they wasted development resources to make it and should have focused solely on single player content.
