Oblivion Multiplayer?

[CptStern]

:O

The MultiTES4: Multiplayer Oblivion has a patch to add multiplayer support to The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. There is more that doesn't work under the current alpha patch than does, but there is preliminary support for two players to run around the game world together, with a goal of developing a version that will support eight-player deathmatch.

wow co-op in oblivion would be great ..hopefully it wont be buggy/laggy

Deathmatch.... in an RPG?

 

[CptStern]

I guess in the arena?

 

[Cormeh]

PC only? Or do us 360 nubcakes get a slice of the action?

 

[Ennui]

Oblivion's combat system is on par with that of a combat game.

 

[Cormeh]

Can't have em all. ;(

Sounds delish though.

Didn't morrowind have a multiplayer option too? This sounds amazing though!

Morrowind? by default no it may have been modded in by someone. These things tend to be buggy initally but if the works put into it then it stands a good chance of being awesome.

Morrowind was added in by a 3rd party mod group. Very very laggy and for only 2 people. It was mainly LAN and even Lanning was laggggyyy. How it worked was, they used a 3rd party application to transfer the data. Then they would make a NPC on both computers and update it with the location.


This also happens to be how this mod functions. It will take a lot of work to get this mod ad a good quality. Although considering that this is happening rather early on in Oblivions life....I could see it hitting that quality.

That's what I meant - As a mod.

A quick google and that turned up.

If they can get multi-theft auto going, I am sure that multiplayer online fun in Oblivion can be done as well. Imagine the fun!!

 

[Mutley]

Morrowind Online was very buggy and laggy, it was terrible.

Coop for Oblivion would rock, stuff DM and MMO. Coop is the only way forward for this game, otherwise it would ruin the story and quests.

It has alot of potential.

 

[Dalamari]

pity that you can't do quests, coop questing would rawk

Gah PVP would suck in oblivion...everyone would just paralyze eachother and sit there and beat em to death...that or someone would just paralyze non stop.

 

[Cormeh]

Aye, but you get that in every multiplayer game. There's always a way around it. Resist paralysis spells/potions, silence etc.

The same goes for disentegrate armour/weapon tactics.

Or have matches including a fully suited guy in Dremora armor with Umbra vs a guy in fur armor with rusty longsword.
