Geiles Game, macht richtig Spaß und hat einen hohen Suchtfaktor!

If you want to play this game with friends on a dedicated server that one of you host then DO NOT BUY. This isn't ready yet. Just went through 3 refunds after spending hours configuring the server. Here are the bonehead decisions the devs made and I'm hoping they change this for the main release. Just fyi, host plenty of game servers for family so familiar how to set these up. I mainly run them as containers. Issues: -dedicated server is not accessible over lan....you must expose it to the internet and then connect to it via your wan ip. This means always online drm like steps for your server AND basically means you can not host the server on the same network you play on (there's options to leverage hairpin/loopback but this seemed to only intermittingly work with the server often rejecting the connection) -you need to have a static wan IP or you will need to rebuild the server each time your ISP changes your wan IP. Also, this WILL NOT work if you have cellular backup or any other backup internet. The server get's bound to your external wan IP and if that changes it will not work. Again, to fix this you go back to rebuilding the server which seems to be a common requirement to how devs built this. -lots of little weird things...e.g. when you first connect to the server in game, if you connect via local IP (so your 192.xx, etc...) then your "external ip" of the server will be permanently set to a local IP number and you will not be able to connect. No errors explaining this...and then you're back to having to rebuild your server/docker image as it seems the devs made this a feature and you are not able to edit it. Again, no errors explaining this...just trial and error. -Other weird issues are the server saves. Server doesn't auto load the save so you have to manually add some patchwork environments or manually load the game after every server restart. Server loads are also weird, when selecting game saves it also exposes all of the other server files which is just weird (again this is in the save game load menu). -If you want a dedicated server, you need to host it with a 3rd party that offers a static ip. For a game that heavily lifts off satisfactory and built around co-op, the above decisions make no sense. Yes this is in early access but advertising this as a co-op with dedicated server feels like the devs are pretty far into the false advertising.
