If i had a FS friend or two, i'd happily play a small multiplayer game with them, but honestly i don't know anyone who would put up with this 'boring game' haha! So i play alone....

Never play MP.

I’m on console. Maybe it would be different if we could play on dedicated servers

Biggest trouble with MP it's hard to join if you don't have the same mods as everyone else. I had to create a fellsbrun farm with no mods just to get to farm with other players. Thsts fine until you log off then when it's restarted the farms have merged.

I've only friended up one other layer & we both work the same farm on mercury but I have to tell him what mods I've used for him to join.

It would be useful if players could have an autofile to just synchronise with the host mods he's using at the time which in turn doesn't affect theirs or the joining persons own 'solo game" mod downloads

I'd love to join other games but most players are a bit clicky , some nights you can't join any at all which is a bit annoying when the consoles charge you a fee for gameing online

I’ve played more MP than single player on this version. If you find the right person that you and they can adapt to each other MP is very fun.

I'm not an everyday Gamer, but If I found a good player to play with on XBOX, I would play Multiplayer.

Me in a nutshell. Even if a mod is not active in my game (box is not checked before I start a game), friend is roadblocked until their mod list matches mine. Same if I want to get into another game.

Some kind of automatic system to sync mod lists would be a great help.

Lol. Competing with others is the main definition of a “type A”. I don’t think a real “type A “ person could enjoy this game except for the FSL league.

I’ve joined and ran multiplayer games in the past. I really enjoyed it but it was very time consuming and became too much like work.

I am waiting for a new controller and headset for my Xbox One from Santa in order to play some multiplayer. Pretty excited to open up a new way to play this game!
