More than 4 players

[JGallagherXLTTV]

I know its a long shot but im wondering if the devs are gonna add the ability for more than 4 player max? This game is awesome, i just hate leaving out friends when we go to play. i dont know it might just be me wanting this but it seems like it would be an awesome idea! Just wanna see other players or devs thoughts on the matter.

(P.S. Also might be cool to have the time traveller drop in playsrs who wanna join a started expedition)

The late joining idea is something that is comin`, although the devs didnt say if it was going to be exactly like that (although i really like it)

About more player capacity, i hope it does become a feature (although you should expect the difficulty to be sky-high, since it scales with the amount of players)

Also, i`m not sure if it was fixed, but there was a bug that, if 2 or more people joined at the same time, you were able to get more players than the limit.

In the update later today they are planning to add bots as well as players joining mid game. And also it is possible to glitch the game to have 5 or 6 players but it becomes quite buggy.

I'm not entirely sure about this, but i think the devs have said that more then four players in a sub will most likely not happen. I think it has to do with something on how the game servers were built, but once again, i'm not positive.


I really do think the second idea sounds awesome though!

jordan said in an interview, that more than 4 players will be coming, since there is such a high demand for it. it will just take ages, since it is kind of lowest priority. let's see if i can find that twitch clip

I can vouch that we've indeed been building our new content to be more adaptable to fit more than 4 players. Still, the vast majority of player count-dependent content assumes a max of 4 players (I can't believe how many times I hard-coded the number "4" into the miscellaneous places that balance the game). Wrz is right that the feature is requested enough that it's probably gonna happen, but it is much lower priority than mid-game joining.

The current networking tools don't allow for more than four players in a lobby for the most part. it is possible that may change in the future.
