Max players in Coop

[Costremal]

I know that it is not recommended to play more than 2 players but they believe that there may be a number of possibilities that the maximum number of players can be increased, with 3 would be fine in fact or 4, because I would love to spend it with some friends sincerely even though it is not recommended. just in case optional!

In my opinion, a coop player is already more than enough, since he is often overpowered depending on the player with you. I don't think the game was designed with more coop players in mind, and honestly it loses a lot of fun, it would be a mess.
A coop partner is more than enough for the game's proposal.
Pvp is another story.
As I always say, this is not dark souls, you want to play dark souls play dark souls. The game is hellpoint.

I'm not saying that I want to play dark souls, I can only enjoy it with more people, something like if it goes from more than 3 players the hp of the enemies increases or I don't know, but I know that the experience is focused on 1-2 players but it is that I would only like to play something of this style with more people because dark souls to play online with someone is very difficult and tedious

^This. The sheer amount of times I had to make this point is ludicrous. Not every Souls-like should be held to the unrealistic standards of a seasoned veteran AAA studio like From Software with tons of long time talent and resources. For a tiny indie studio with huge limitations, Hellpoint is one hell of a triumph.

There's a lot of work to still be done in terms of bugs, balance and what-not and while it would be cool to play with more people with rebalances to support that; it all comes down to the custom engine's limitations, server infrastructure and other things even the more serious players aren't aware of.

Game development is hard man.

well that its right im not wanna give more work to the team development, but its only idea, the game its very good now... well thanks for the awnser men

[Costremal]

Sinai! YOU HAVE MY RESPECT! Really thanks very much for this! im gonna see this later :3.

[Costremal]

Sinai, i tested the mod and i can say very very thanks! i can play in splitscreen and online at the same time! thanks you so much!

[Duke Serious]

4 players?

Can you play 4 players in this game?

[Rage]

Unforunately, it is not working for my friends and I. All 3 of us installed it and attempted to host to no avail. =( Was gonna try a 3 man daring effigy thing

[Costremal]

its strange, for my work fine and i play with my girlfriend in splitscreen and my friend newjakcs in internet conection for CODE ROOM and no have problems, see if you have the same version and the same melon version


and Duke Serius, the mod creates a folder with a file "config.xml" that you can modify to place the maximum players you want}

[Costremal]

in the mod configuration file it is by default 4 player max in coop (without count you), and 2 invasor max


I can imagine setting up the file a battle of 20 allies vs 20 invaders if you like

although I don't know if the game can take it

What you are describing is achievable with the base game. You can split screen and have a friend join without a mod. I'm trying to get two friends to join via code. That's the difference.

[Costremal]

no, i cant, i try before... (sorry my tired in this moment, can you translate this? please) anteriormente mi amigo newjacks intento conectarse conmigo cuando tenia activo la pantalla dividida pero no se logro con la base del juego, agregando el mod funcionaba correctamente, de todas maneras para probar tambien intente conectar de a 4 jugadores por conexion y tambien funciono

Apologies for how these two responded, they didn't help you at all. You didn't even mention Dark Souls.

The limit of 2 players is a completely arbitrary one which the developers chose, whether it was based on balancing or networking reasons, either way it could be increased with a simple change to a line of code.

edit: had a poke around in dnSpy, pretty sure I have managed to remove the player limit but I don't have anyone to test it with.

I'm gonna upload it here, let me know if it works or not.
