Am working on a coop (2 players only) action adventure 3d game and was wondering if i need a (single/multiple) dedicated server or if possible a peer-to-peer for making a coop online game.
Let say graphics is like dark soul 1 and concurrent user playing the game is around 500.
Is there other alternative to handle a coop online game as I have a small budget since AWS server is around 1k usd /year ;x
you need to subscribe to gather the ue4 engine source which grants you accessibility to dedicated server stuff.
If you don’t have a subscription (like me) you can still develop online multiplayer! 1st player has to be the host and the other one is the client.
But don’t forget, no official dedicated server without subscription.
Here you can learn how to create menus and lobbys and everything necessary to get the online mtiplayer basics done
