Dedicated server status report.
Okay, so dedicated servers are still being worked on.
We're chipping away at multiplayer bugs and we need to solve those multiplayer bugs first before we can do
dedicated servers.
So it's not so much an issue of making the functionality of dedicated servers.
The issue is fixing bugs that will break the gameplay experience completely, whether you're on a dedicated server or not.
And most of the issues people are having are issues that dedicated servers will not fix
We need to fix those bugs as they are.
Something to remember is that if you're on a dedicated server, what means is the server is the host and you're the client and everyone playing is the client.
And most people reporting issues are people who are playing as clients.
And what this means is on a dedicated server, everyone will have that client experience and no one will have the host experience.
That's something to remember here.
So the focus on getting dedicated servers working is making sure that our multiplayer works better.
And we are constantly working on that.
So that's the status report is we're still working on it.
