HUGE multiplayer mod

[Aleo]

I know that there is a small chance the developers will add "real" multiplayer. Would it be possible for a few expert code modders to make a large mod toghether, that adds multiplayer. It would need to rewrite mabye around half the game. But if they would cooperate for mabye 2+ months, could they make multiplayer? Mabye they would also get some help from some developers?

Just an idea...

jesus christ rewrite an entire half of a game? i rather make my own. :/

Good luck getting a hold of @manylegged for this idea to work, however.

This is pretty much impossible. Also as danny420dale said, getting hold of the developer right now is rather impossible. He is doing his own projects. As for coders and modders, though we have some adept code writers in the community, none are at the level of making, let alone rewriting code for a well made game. Infact the amount of work with no overall benefit makes it super unlikely anyway.

I do hope we have a future reassembly game that comes with all of the wanted features, that the community wants, but at this point we are stuck with what we got. Mods are the only thing keeping the game going, and even then our resources are limited.

If we can't do anything, then the developers should do something. They should listen to the community and mabye rewrite half the game themself. They should optimize the game, and add multiplayer. There would be more sales, and more happy people. They should also remake many of the ships built-in, and add new stuff, revive faction 14 and make it possible to have half or the whole gameworld running and un-freezed.

An example on a game that has done what the community wants, and optimized it a TON:

Space Engineers

The developers should also begin updating it again. I do not want this game to be abondened, and be left in a unfinished state.

maybe one day it will go open source :^)

Then someone else could keep making it better..

Well you should note, this was made only by one developer. He spent 2 to 3 years making this game. I will agree that it is a bit unfair to just sort of disappear with not much of a saying, other than im doing future projects. But as it stands he has no concern to implement further things as he said he achieved his vision of what he wanted.

I do wish he would get some other developers to keep the game going but i dout he cares, as painful as it is to say.

Not really. If the developers imagined, conceptualized and shaped the game to be a single-player one, then it needs to stay as single-player. They should make the game they want, not the community wants. Because when you deviate from that path, the result is often ♥♥♥♥.

Then they should improve the single-player gameplay.

Pretty sure the developer abandoned this game.

I'm learning programming, might make something similar to Reassembly, but multiplayer and like an RTS where you make the ship algorithms, thrusters and guns yourself... But don't count on it.
