Post by darkestsoul00 »

Is it possible or not? I know not this game but it would be nice so i could have all my buds on one farm without lag .

Not now. And probably never, on fs17 at least.

Which is a shame, there seems to be a huge call for it.

As redglasses said: There are no dedicated servers for console at the moment. It's not as easy to do as it might seem, but who knows what the future brings.

"At the moment"
"But who knows what the future brings."...

This means there's a chance. I'll take those odds.

There is always a chance. We know you guys would love to see dedicated servers so once we see a good possibility to do that, we might actually do it :)

We've been wanting dedicated servers on Xbox since 15 came out. I'd definitely pay a bit of my hard earned money for one. It would just be nice for everyone to be able to hop on and off as they need to.

Keep up the great work so far, and hopefully ya'll find the right time to slide this feature in.

I always like hearing of a possibility. Battlefield had them might want to check out how they did it. Just a thought/suggestion

They used EA's massively deep pockets.

I would love to see dedicated servers on console just for the fact that once you get a certain number of people in a lobby on ps4 the lag is unbearable. Plus then console players could have a farming tournament and the person who has the saved game wouldn't have to be on
