x Rebirth Multiplayer?

^ Witch brings us back to what I already said.

- We established that MP wont be in the release. no point of arguing there.
- None wants MP feature to compromise the SP experience. And few would approve of resources that could have been spent on SP wasted on MP.
- Some are afraid of there sandbox experience could be ruined bye adding MP

so based on that I repeat what I think is an god idea:

for those of us that would like to have some sort of MP. we have to show that we are willing to pay for there work, and that we are a large enough costumer group, so that ES can see an investment opportunity.

this kind of MP would have to be a payed DLC in steem, so that those ho dont want it dont have to buy it. and doesn't effect there game wither such a DLC exist or not.

so I would like to see this tread go more in a direction of establish how many ho wants such a DLC, not how many that thinks we MPers shouldn't be allowed to have this.

Its amazing how everyone here thinks Multiplayer would be a MUST and transform X into an Online MMORPG.

I voted FOR multiplayer. Coop sessions with a friend would be amazing. Exploring the universe, battling against each other in our cruisers...

Multiplayer in the main game wouldent work simply period... if there were to be multiplayer that would mean we'd have to be limited to how many ships an stations we can own cause it'll just overload the servers when 100s of players get 1000s of ships they own lol

but what i would actually like is if there were a Multiplayer mode where you can have deathmatches an stuff. maybe some co op missions on a entirely seperate universe then the singleplayer mode.

something just simple you know? doesnt need to be fancy, just so we X players can just play against each other in a simple death match. i dunno why they dont consider this.

[EDIT]

ok thinking about it, while i still think it be good idea. but i have to say its best they simply focus there entire attention on the SP game, dont wanna spread there funding which might lead them to cut a few things out so no.

unless egosoft can set up some Multiplayer Donation fund so they can use donation money to creat some small Multiplayer mode.

If you read the other threads, you'll see the reason a lot of responses quickly move from multi-player to MMO is because MMO (with regular subscription payments) is the only way to reasonable assure additional return from the extra development requirements of multi-player.

This is the source of most of the objections to multi-player. Obviously most people would have no objection to multi-player being snook in as an option somewhere, but not affecting the single player game in any way. But that is impossible even if only from the perspective of the time taken to add it would be resource that could otherwise be spent on the single player game.

But, to add to that, I'd love the ability to invite other players to join in my game

What's everyone's obsession with multiplayer anyway?

[squirrelrider]

That was probably trolling but:

1.Multiplayer is simply fun
2.Multiplayer is more challenging
3.Multiplayer gives many more hours of gameplay then singleplayer

So it's not weird for people to want multiplayer, even if there won't be one in this game.
