multiplayer when?

[Blink]

seen a reply on a review from the dev that is just over two years old saying its planned, any update on when mp is coming?

I don't like to give ETAs because game devs usually fail to keep them and then people are disappointed. So I can just say that it's a very important feature that's definitely planned :)

thats 100% fair but has there been any progress at all towards it?

Ye, I agree, I'm fine with not having an ETA at all, but it would be nice to just know what work has been done on multiplayer as you develop the game, even if it's just occasional updates every few months or more

Any new feature that is added is basically progress towards multiplayer, yes, since there are various features that still need to be added before multiplayer makes sense. One of the biggest ones was for example releasing the game on PSVR2 - because with multiplayer in a game that's PCVR-only it would be very hard to keep servers populated enough for proper multiplayer, and a game with empty servers would not really be a good multiplayer game. So the PSVR2 release for example means multiplayer can directly be cross-play between PCVR and PSVR2, with a much bigger playerbase.

Dedicated server for self hosting or simple co-op planned? Or only official servers?

All those things are planned :)

But remember (sorry Stonebrick) this is promised since 2018, and always with the same sentence "is planned"!!
I don't believe in it anymore and it's no fun alone in the long run

it is true that its fact for a while that the question of multiplayer is in place, this should happen when? I think the game is already good for multiplayer. Another cubic games released multiplayer when the game had not much functionality, its would be great to me to launch servers that evolved with updates and future object or functionality. Are you sure you want to do 1? its fact already a moment that it is asking

i don't need huge servers with thousands of players.
i just want to play the game with like one or two friends, build stuff and explore, so i don't feel so lonely all the time.
