Ah, alright. I do think I'd like to do a non-ded run if rules are made for it. But if other people aren't interested, I understand that it'd be kind of pointless to make them for just one or two people.
Do you think there will ever be a category for runs specifically on non-dedicated servers? I only ask because I think some interesting strategies could come from abusing tether distance mechanics.
What do we do if the server crashes or there are technical problems in the middle of a run?
Can the run be done on a non-dedicated server, or do we have to host a dedicated one?
Looking through the past threads, I believe the last discussion of multiplayer speedruns on here was around 9 months ago. Did the rules ever finish getting updated? Or are multiplayer runs still off limits?
I think a console-specific leaderboard would probably be best, since the tether range can't be changed on any consoles. And invalidating entire runs for accidental teleports would be irritating for everyone. I also think allowing people to exploit the teleporting would make for some very interesting strategies and runs.
With that information, my question now is, am I allowed to do a 2 Player run? Are we allowed to do it on a non-dedicated session, or would that invalidate the run?
Yes, precisely. I'm just curious if I can do the run without being able to change that due to console restrictions.
I'm a PS4 player wanting to do a 2 Player run. In the rules, it says tethering must be the maximum, and a dedicated server has to be used. The problem is, neither of us have a second PS4 to run the server on, and changing the tether distance isn't a possibility on consoles. What do I do about this?
