Multiplayer issues?

[Simonecid]

Hello guys,
I recently bought this game and I am considering playing GE:Resurrection with a friend.
This guide https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=839709520 seems to imply that there are some MP issues and crashes. Is that true? Is there a solution? Is it limited to only GE:Res?

Thanks a lot, cheers!

I personally haven't tried multiplayer, but another user did have issues:

I've heard mixed results for online play for Rage Burst, but Resurrection's online play worked just fine when I played it. Check out this guide for the first thing you should try if you can't connect with your friend:

Played 10 hours with 2 friends, it never crashed but it did get stuck on infinite loading screens, forcing us to re-do the mission we just beat.

The issue happens at random and apparently way more frequently with more than 2 players. You could keep restarting mission and hoping the RNG doesn't screw you, but in later missions this causes the game to be pretty much unplayable in multiplayer.

But like I said, I've read multiple times that this supposedly doesn't happen with 2 players, however there's also been reports that it does indeed happen, although less frequently (less people to sync with, smaller chance of it happening).

In my opinion the game is a scam if you're trying to play multiplayer regularly with a group of friends. With just one person however, you could end up being lucky and never encountering this bug, but don't take my word for it. Fact is the issue is here and it stil hasn't been fixed and likely never will be.

Does this happen in both games?

Thanks guys!

Come to think of it, I did have the hanging load screen issue when I was playing with 2 other players -- this was with Resurrection. With just one other player, it was fine. I haven't done any multiplayer in Rage Burst, so I can't confirm anything there.

Try out co-op with your friend in Resurrection. If this is true, you shouldn't have any issues if it's just the two of you.

Happens in both games.

Multiplayer in GER is actually WAY better then in GE2:RB, where just using the ingame chat makes the game crash.

As long as u don't play with 4 players all the time most of it can be done( the infinite loading screen being the main problem) but the best is with just 2 players.

And as said, don't do MP with GE2:RB, not worth your time till they fix it(if at all...)
