Dedicated server?

[Rayden]

Is is possible to host a server for this?

[Dingle 🐭]

Yes you can host or join a public game

Also would like to know if you can host your own dedicated server.

The way this game works for coop is crap.

Relying on one person to be host and that person has the game save and need to be in game for it to work. So if host is offline, the other coop members can't continue playing their game.

This game needs a separate server console program that can be run as a server, that way host can leave it running and your coop members can continue to play in the same game without host being ingame..

For a game that involves exploring, crafting, taking time to build a camp and your charactor. This host system really made this game limited.

Ok thanks for this information! Made me not buy this game :(

Same for me, without a dedicated server it's not going to work for me/us as we can't always get online at the same time.

pitty .. the Forest has this option .. but this game takes my favor (single player) .. if only devs could permit a dedicated server, it would be awesome ..

Appears that dedicated servers were moved to the 'declined' pile on their trello board.
That's a shame, guess I'll un-wishlist this.

It is sad to see that developers do not see or understand the potential of providing dedicated server files to run private servers once you own the game.

I along with a group of over 50 to 60 players I play with regularly will not buy any games that don't provide a way to run a adequate server like Conan Exiles, Rust, Ark and many other games we set up servers for.

So it's a shame to pass on this one.

Pass for me too. Game was highly recommended to me, so I came here but a survival/crafting game with no private/personal dedicated server options is a no go for me. Oh well... back to waiting for the next great multiplayer server/client survival game to come out. Conan Exiles has some big announcement coming, I'm hoping it is a new map or extension of the current map with new monsters, quests, etc. My CE server will be back up 24/7. :)

This games really not ment for that large of a population.

Frankly, playing with even 1 more person completely breaks the immersion and fear factor of being alone.. fairly counter intuitive for this type of game.

But muh co-operinos!!

[SplendaDaddie]

what program do you need to run a server?

[MokahTGS]

Why do people think that having a dedicated server capability means you have to support large populations or the developer has to host them themselves...literally not what most people want. we want to run a dedicated server on a separate machine so other players are dependent on a player host. Most people are talking about 2-3 people in co-op.

[Cilandrazen]

Still no news about dedicated server support?

On the trello it was declined a long time ago.
