Multiplayer help/question
My friends and I got this game today and cannot connect to play. We followed the launch setup, got the code, and tried to connect but it will not let us.

Do we need to run the dedicated server first? Possibly set up port forwarding and all that? or should this just connect?

Any help would be great on this. Just trying to launch a campaign for 3-4 players..

Thanks!!!

We didn't have any problems. We don't use a dedicated server.

Is anyone getting errors? How far are you getting? When the clients input the code, does it show details for the host?

Is everyone online in Steam (particularly the host)?

Does the host computer have enough power to host? The specs listed might be for solo play, hosting uses a lot more CPU and GPU. (Although I would think this would let you connect and just be laggy to play.)

Well... we have 3 PCs. All should be enough to host, but we did try with our best PC and same results for all of us.

Basically, we create new game and click host game which gives the code. I then launch the game. The other players put in the code and hit connect. It does show the game up in the window with 1/8 playing. It then tries to connect and either says failed to connect or will connect for a few and just drop out connection.

Everyone is online on Steam.
I don't have any ideas. Sounds like you're doing it right.
I used to be able to host a world, but tried to launch tonight and hosting servers doesn't seem to be working.

I appreciate it. As long as we were doing it correctly, it might not be on my end. Will try again tomorrow and see how it goes.
I just tried to host. I got an error before I even got to the code. That sounds different from your problem.

Same issue as well hosting a nondedicated server game
