Simulate multiplayer / loot boost

Grim Dawn Gameplay Discussion

Hi,
I cant find it anywhere so I want to ask if is possible in GD to simulate multiplayer. I mean something like was in diablo2 - write in console /players 8.
Im asking because we ran some MP games whis weekend and when we were split farming on Elite without instanced loot drops were much better. So I want to know if there is possibility that I can solo farm Elite with boosted loot this way.

We found that for split farm is much better turn off instance loot.
For farming together in much better instanced loot on.

If you have any tips…post them :wink:

so no /players X since no reply i guess. Thanks anyway :cool:

Request in mod section for something like d2 8plyers or TQ Xmax and M4ssbosses

i dont want to play any mods. I like 100% legit playing so if its not in core game then it doesn’t exist for me. But thanks

Perhaps you should suggest Crate to add such a feature in the future, for increasing solo difficulty beyond what it currently is.

6

Tell me more… So you like 100% legit playing but want to change game properties, interesting!

7

I don’t play, “players x” is in that gray area where it’s almost like a cheat console command…

Players X in D2 simulated having that number of players in your game, so it came with all the increased difficulty of defeating them as well. I wouldn’t call it almost like cheating. It’s almost like facing mobs that are meant to be a challenge for 8 players, solo, alone. So if Crate added a new difficulty that reflected this, you would say it was just like cheating?

I don’t understand.

The increased difficulty became irrelevant almost immediately after you get a few really quick levels due to said increased difficulty.

I played DII almost exclusively on /p8.

If you post requesting a request for an incremental mob density setting, you will probably get overwhelming support from the community!

What I don’t understand is you said you don’t want to use mods because you want to be 100% legit, but you want a console command to simulate other players in the game. So what if someone made a mod that added in the players X into the game? Would that be illegitimate in your eyes?

Wow, players X is cheating? So it was possible to cheat on battle.net with blizzard support? Interesting thoughts :cool:

Its same like I invite another 3 players to my game, set non-instanced loot and go split farm. Thats what I want to do, but I dont have always another three ppl around.

yes, what you dont understand? Im just asking if there is something like that in game, if not nothing happens. If its in game then its part of it - same as setting Elite/Ultimate difficulty -> Legit (dont compare it with IDDQD which was also part of game)

So obviously its not in game, never mind.

I would love to such functionality implemented so we can virtually increase the number of players but for solo or even MP game (like 2 players playing in environment for 4 players).

The point of OP is that we can achieve this already but it requires real players to join a game so why note propose something to do the same but without the need to bother real people?
