Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) General A divinity game with Multiplayer support...?

After playing Divine Divinity.. It dawned at me that this wonderful game that was so much better then any other Diablo clone around and blew away Diablo2.. didn't have a Multiplayer component. I could easily see in my mind an 8 player party walking through the huge world that was Divine Divinity. Here's hoping that Laurian does develop a game along those lines. I know many of you would love to share some gaming time together in the world as supposed to only sharing time on the forums. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> As someone who cut his teeth playing mp games at college about 12 years ago.. I am so used to playing games like that.. its very rare for me to get a single player tuned game. In fact only 2 rpgs in the last 2 years can take that to the bank And they were Divine Divinity and Morrowind. I love both of em.

What do you think Larian would have to do to alter the gameplay to include 8 players support? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/alien.gif" alt="" />

yeh i agree, divine divinity shud av som kind of multiplayer thingy, makes the game so much better

Divinity 2 will have multiplayer support, if you can wait a year or two. See the Beyond Divinity FAQ.

Um I read the whole faq.. and nothing in it says that there will be Mp support for Divine Divinity 2. It does say DD 2 is in development and will be a graphical update over Beyond Divinity by alot. But no other mention about it is made.

Still I wouldn't be suprised if they did it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Divinity 2 multi-player support has been mentioned in various Beyond Divinity interviews (see the Announcements forum) when the topic was brought up, but without details.

I personally think that Mulit-Player would get away from the aspect of the game and add way to much for the programmers to add In, but what would be kind of cool is If you could Import your char from the first game to the new one. Just a thought!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />
