Will this game have multiplayer or coop?

[WhiteBread]

I discovered this game recently and it looks decent but before i make any decisions on buying this or not i gotta know does this game have or will have multiplayer?

From what I read in the discussion it is a no to multiplayer and a maybe to co-op when the game is further along but I could be wrong. I personally don't think the game needs either and a lot of fun for the price just early acess with a few issues like they all do. Search the discussions to probably find out more than you want to know because a lot of people ask about mutiplayer and co-op.

Check out the 'work in progress' section of the suggestions Trello on the Mist Survival Discord:

There needs to be a pinned topic that answers this question as it is asked 5000 times...

I use to think about it,. May be in the future. Actually, Im thinking about 2-4 player Co-Op (not mp), but it must be after all the bugs are fix. And add more content for Single player.

Actually, to make Co-Op i have to re-coding (its take time), and some game play can't use for Co-Op Gameplay.

***
Players can choose to play Single or Co-Op, which different gameplay.

***
i do apoligize that i can't tell the exactly time for Co-Op.

That post by the dev is possibly at odds with what is posted on the discord:

^ I completely agree. I've suggested before that I think the dev should post and pin something definitive regarding multiplayer and co-op.

I thought you'd been quiet for a while. Hope all is well.

I don't typically do Discord, but heard that the users vote up and indeed vote down ideas that can be added to the game. The Trello (no I didnt know what one was) plots suggestions that have been selected and rejected, what has been impemented and what is work in progress.

The work in progress tab lists:

- Crop System
- (and imo somewhat disconcerting) Multi player/Co-Op

Yeah been nearly four weeks i think lol i havent even got to try out the repair bench or new things that have been added in that time yet lol but i'm going too very shortly lol and thank you for the concern :) i'm good:) i had a motorbike accident about 6yrs ago and it messed my back and left hip up somewhat ...and i done something stupid about a month ago over pushing my abilities and ended up back in hospital got out a few days ago :D, so just got to take it easy for a cple months :)

I like the idea that the crop system is finally being worked on and implemented :) been waiting for that :)
Hate the idea of multiplayer being added :( could really do without this game getting ruined by griefers :(
I wouldn't mind if CO-OP was added i have met some like minded gamers since playing this game, who i wouldn't mind playing alongside :)
The fact that its being worked on now is could be a good thing as it's going to take time to rewrite the code for CO-OP or MP so getting a head start on it would be good as long as it don't delay the SP progress :)

@Maconijnr I think you'll like most of the additions in 0.1.9.4. I didn't start a new game and the only thing I didn't like was that the gameworld was literally awash with vehicle spare parts.

I don't plan on being active on discord, but I'm going to keep an eye on the Trello to see what is listed as work in progress.

I totally agree with your comments on MP.

No bandit raids and AI can permanently disappear! Hunting rifle isn't bad.

Bummer :( why do we need walls again lol i'll probs stick with me bow for the most part :) i tend to favour bows in these type games silent and deadly lol :) i will try out the rifle for sniping bandits see how it goes, but i much prefer a stealth approach.

The npc's i never rescue :) i just leave them there when i raid the camps there just too much hassle for me lol

People who love multiplayer games will never like single play.
I like play both type games. Mist Survival i really enjoy cause its single player game.
So i can do all i like and how i want would be really annoying if few more players start mess with my stuff and build things i dont like. Alone im happy and i do what i want. if i really want co-op i play CSGO or forest

I completely agree.

My concern is that if Multi Player or indeed Co-op is introduced it could potentially:

- Hold up the development of this great game.

- Destroy the game balance (ie loot availability) for those that want to enjoy a single player survival game.
