Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity Original Sin - Beta hey i think i read somewhere that this game was go

ing to accomodate up to four players

iirc the idea was that two extra players can join an already existing game, find loot and assist in tb combat

but insofar as quests and story, will not have any impact

is this still going to be A Thing? is it already? i haven't tried. but i would pick this game up again for other friends if it were to support two other people

here we go

so what's the news on this front?

I think they suggested that the engine could support it, but afaik it isn't implemented. A lot of people are keen on adding the functionality through the editor though, so keep an eye on things.

The main game will focus on 2 player co-op. The editor supports writing dialog, etc, for additional players, so there will eventually be mods geared towards 4 players.

Those topics about another 2 as recruits were early on if I recall correctly, we'll have to wait and see if that at least will be implemented for full release, but at this point I wouldn't hold my breath on that front.

sweet

in my coop game we have another two npcs in our party anyway. may be slightly elusive and i'm no game developer but it seems like it shouldn't be too hard to enable those as player slots (in as much as the network framework/game mechanics are mostly already there)
