Cozyhut3 Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Post the most obvious questions about multiplayer below for the devs to (hopefully) see.So just how will multiplayer work with different characters? Can multiple people play as the same character? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKingofSquirrels Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I hope everyone has to choose a different character, it would look horrible otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeW Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Not too sure about that yet. Gameplay details at this level haven't really been approached yet, so we welcome the feedback! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malan-Tai Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 How would work sleeping ? How will webber's army interact with other players ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonestarr01 Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Everyone defiantly needs to be different characters. Otherwise, it would be too goofy (as well as too OP, imagine 4 abagails ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpanishInquisition Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Webber in multiplayer...How his spider friendly/piggy haters thing will work with more players?This will surelly add quotes about other characters! I can't wait to see what Willow has to say about Woodie(Both are the nightmare of the trees) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Artifact Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 How much will competition between the human players play a role in this? I always liked the idea that in a potential multiplayer, if your sanity lowers to a certain point, your fellow players will be viewed as a potential threat and food thief, turning him into a shadowy monster that lowers your sanity even more if you are around him.

TheKingofSquirrels Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Well...When I saw multiplayer, I immediately thought of this... I hope everyone has to pick a different character and they all have their different abilities. I really don´t want to see clones or customized characters. Also, it be cool if Maxwell, Weeber and Werebeaver lower the sanity of the other normal payers when close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cozyhut3 Posted May 7, 2014 Author Share Posted May 7, 2014 Um... did this get pinned? The more I see the less I know. If it was, I can change this to "Gameplay Tweak Suggestion Megathread" or something to that effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amkar Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 This will surelly add quotes about other characters! I can't wait to see what Willow has to say about Woodie(Both are the nightmare of the trees) I bet Maxwell can't wait to see his dear friend Wes free...

Oh my god. Your post gave me a great idea. You could have co-op Dont Starve, and then a mode which allows up to 4 people to be in the same world, but you're all against each other. Imagine the chaos > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Q_ Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Whats with sanity boost aura on friendly players?If they will have it then no need for hats, if they would not have it then why pigs have it?There is no real combat system so PvP will simply be boring.

debugman18 Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Heh, I had similar ideas. Could be tons of fun. Indeed. You could all be strewn about randomly to start. Imagine the tenseness, having to pack up and move base to avoid being spotted by another player! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinorex Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 How would Adventure mode work with this? Will it just not be available in Multiplayer or will it have some multiplayer specific changes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skorpio Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I know this doesn't work for most multiplayer games, but is multisystem multiplayer possible. like one person on a pc and another on a ps4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorPingas Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I made an account to post on these forums after reading the announcement. I'm super excited, I always told my friends IRL that I wish I had a game exactly like Don't Starve that was multiplayer so that we could play together. Well... now I can think of one just like it! I do have a couple questions though, and maybe there's no way to tell me yet, but do you guys know if you are having a dedicated server or a self-hosting kind of network? Internet can be choppy here sometimes, and games that you can rejoin while in progress are important. I may have used incorrect terminology regarding the servers, I dunno, I'm dumb, but in Civ 5, even if one of the computers DCs, they can still join back up with no loss of time.

F3RR1S Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 How would work sleeping ? It could work like Minecraft's beds. And perhaps there can be a sanity gain when you are asleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malan-Tai Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Will there be different modes likecoop orpvp ? How will hounds, giants and shadow creatures work ? Will the dlc be available ? Or only if everyone has got it ? And what about the map ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
