Multiplayer

[Midnight]

people complaining that topless wont add multiplayer when modders can, meanwhile the amount of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bugs those mods cause: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtm6uMBZ39c&ab_channel=martincitopantsLIVE

crazy how it's been years since the first MP mod and there still isn't one that actually works. Maybe as it turns out making multiplayer is more difficult than it seems at first.

Off topic, but this was NOT a collab i expected lol

I love seeing all the kids saying "just add multiplayer" with no understanding of how much work actually goes into it. There is a reason MSCO always used the same 8 clips to advertise.

I personally think MSC and MWC should be played solo, because it just makes sense.

If Topless was to listen to such people then what would the story be? How do players share car keys? Who gets phone calls? How does money work and so much more things that these kids don't think about, as it's much easier to just ask for something than to think if it would even make sense

I mean, every question u've made has a simple answer, the game would work like default, the money would be shared, everyone would get the keys, but of course, only one driver with a passenger seat, and for the phone calls, everyone would hear it, but the one that picks it up, hears the callers voice. Although this seems simple, every single thing i mentioned, has to be put into code, and with that, comes bugs, why? Because it might fuse with another line of code.
At the end of the day, I believe that syncing ingame mechanics is the easiest, the hardest will always be the parts and ingame behaviours like starting the car, pouring fluids, and so on...

A game that has multiplayer, needs to be coded with it in mind, if it doesn't, like I refered above, it just wont work right, if ever.

That is right, and as we already saw in Martin's video, it does not come out well

I mean, wreckmp is a multiplayer mod that is still very "virgin", not to mention huge amounts of mods that don't work on it due to sync issues (that's a whole other problem), the owner of the mod did a 6 month+ interval between updates, and he still doesn't update it on the regular.
Gotta give it to him though, this is the best multiplayer mod, even with it's quircks.

MSCO WAS and IS a ripoff of an older mod, they just took over and started charging for inexistent progress... Also, MSCO only got playable when WreckMP got out, there was even a rumor that the MSCO guy was stealing code and that he was one of guys that leaked unreleased mods. You can see where im going with this...
