More players?

[Svide]

Why isn't there an option to have more than 4 players? Idk why most devs who make a coop game feel the need to make it 4 player only when it could be more. Is there a mod or something or can the devs make it to at least 6 players?

That would be very cool, like having two groups drop in together, would be very cool and offer something the original didn't.

the big problem comes in with quality over quantity.
a lot of people in HD1 were greifers and trolls and would intentionally kill the person they joined.
happened a lot.
with 8 people you now have more potential for that happening.

Or give us grunts to call in and manage about

[Elvi]

It would make everything trivial. There are other games that support 128 players and what not and are made for that.

Or put grunts out & about so it doesn't feel so lonely. Add rescue missions as side objectives & what not. Needs something because it seems pretty lonely out there from what I've watched so far off my friends stream.

About to dive in it myself after I eat :D

Why isn't there that option in every game. Oh right cuz it fundamentally changes the game, design, workload, and experience.

Don't see why not in a future dlc or something but for now they should work on what they got which is amazing

Fk a DLC... tf is wrong with you?!?!

I also feel like this game should've had at least 6 players or 8 for more than 1 squad. But still fun nonetheless

[Mr.Person]

Maybe they'll have super hives or mega boss raids or something eventually, that let 2 squads drop in together

[Don the Warlock]

5 or 6 I guess but balancing it out in the higher difficulties would be a bit of a nightmare, imagine bugs in the highest difficulty with 6 people? Truly an endless mass of death...

I'll take it, but it was balanced with 4 in mind, my question is if the difficulty is tweaked by player population, does it get adjusted by the amount of current players, or if it's like HD1 where the difficulty is it?

Starship Troopers: Extermination that came out in 2023 was 16 player co-op and it was a blast. I wish this had more players than 4

That game is doing great right now... Thank god we have this game to get that Starship Troopers feel instead.
