RE: First Impressions - Czechmate - 04-11-2024 (04-11-2024, 04:48 PM)Knightforger Wrote: It's extremely unfortunate that I am inclined to start things off on a relatively negative note, but my first impressions are far from favorable. This isn't the best way to introduce myself, but we'll see what happens. I used the plural as they (my impressions) apply to both the Single player and multi-player versions of the Discovery mod.Hey, what PvE have you tried in Discovery multiplayer so far? How was your experience, players aside? RE: First Impressions - Knightforger - 04-11-2024 I've managed to make two small runs safely. I say small, but there were over 20 waypoints involved each way. That's a feature that should've been added a long time ago, but apparently hasn't been suggested: adding the number of waypoints to the list of potential destinations. I'm playing via my laptop (which was probably the wrong choice; as typing is a real pain - due to how it's situated), I think a large freighter captain tried to say hello, or whatever, but I don't really have a handle on how that works. I hope that's not a problem as it did say this is an RP server and I'd hate to be accused of not participating appropriately, I also have yet to look through all the various posts as that's always a daunting task due there being so many to peruse. RE: First Impressions - Elvinos2003 - 04-11-2024 Roleplaying will take a moment to get used to. Unless you already RP’d, but if you want, here’s my discord if you want to chat and ask questions: fenrir_2003 It’s the same picture as via the forum. RE: First Impressions - DragonRider - 04-12-2024 It's possible to "host" your own personal LAN server and connect to it. Then your progress will be saved and you'll be able to, effectively, play single player. It's kind of how some modern multiplayer games create a local LAN server under the hood, when you play singe player. It should not be hard to do and the server should not take much of your system's resources. If you're interested and need info doing that, ask here or send me a PM. A bit janky of a solution, for sure, but works. I've played that way.

I had one set up on this laptop previously with the original game (and modifications for the starting money and was neutral or friendly with all factions). In fact, it still acts as if it works, but I haven't tried it. As for the role playing: I was one of the original D&D players when TSR was just an infant. So, it won't be hard to do, it's just the communications part of it that I have to figure out.

Maybe you need the right tutorials, guides and company in the game ![]() Then, you can decide better xD RE: First Impressions - Arne - 04-12-2024 (04-11-2024, 07:48 PM)Knightforger Wrote: I certainly appreciate all your quick responses. Sadly, I am completely further disheartened by the Discovery that the Single player version is broken (and can only hope that it's not a permanent issue). Discovery mod is meant to be played in multiplayer as it's a roleplaying game. The devs write the story and we are roleplay characters inside that world. Singleplayer is only meant as a testing ground. I'm afraid you misunderstood the mod itself. |
