    I’ve always thought this game looked like shit.

    Doesn’t it only go up to 4 players or something? What a weird limit for such a large game. I guess the devs just weren’t skilled enough to raise it any higher.

          You can play as a group/team of four, but the game can display up to 32 players in the same area simultaneously, which is quite more likely to happen during expeditions.

          Using a fucking outdated wiki as your “evidence” while acting like bloody Sherlock Holmes?!? Could you be a bigger ass?

          From the actual game website:

          “Experience up to 32 player multiplayer when you summon the social hub, the Space Anomaly, from anywhere in the universe. Form a group, go on inter-galactic missions together or visit each other’s bases.”

            Why are you so upset? I just did a quick google search and that’s what came up. Am I supposed to do actual research for a shitty game? No, I don’t care that much.

            Also, they aren’t very clear about whether or not you can actually group up with 32 players, only summon them in a “social hub.”

          Just like why post at all though? This clearly isn’t for you if you’re driven to insult the game on a post about it’s update.

      “Doesn’t it only go up to 4 players or something?”

      That was the max number of players who could play together for something like 3 update cycles, and that was years ago. Everyone was still technically in the same shared universe, you just couldn’t actually co-op with more than that… but, again, that’s outdated. Not sure what the limit is now, if there even is one - it’s a more seamless and behind-the-scenes load-balancing deal now.

        So, it only goes up to 4 players because the devs aren’t competent enough to support more.

        Thanks for proving my point.

      The gameplay loop is tremendously boring, too. I have no idea how they did that, since it’s basically the same as Minecraft.
