Demo x Full Game on Multiplayer

Postby Vittor » Sat Nov 20, 2010 9:09 am

Hi there, last night I tried the demo and then I bought the game.

Right now I have both installed on my steam. Now I want to persuade some of my friends into buying the game by playing multiplayer with them online.

I noticed that if I lauch the Demo I can find games created by people who own the full game.

What is the limitations of the demo Multiplayer? Can the Demo join any non-demo match? Should I use my Demo to play my friends who got the Demo? If I can host them a match using my full game, can they join any stage I create or must I choose a stage the demo is allowed to play?

So tell me, what can I do and what I can't do playing de Demo x Full Game please. :D

If you bought the full version, then you should always use that version. With the full version you can connect to any servers - demo or full (as long as it's the same game version number). Demo players can join servers running the full version as long as the full version is playing a level that is available in the demo. So it's important to know which multiplayer levels these are. Here is the list:

Beach, Cage, Split, and Octoverse

If you switch to a multiplayer level that isn't in the demo, then all connected demo players will be disconnected (which isn't very nice). Unfortunately, there isn't a way for the server to determine if the player is running the demo or not (other than asking via in-game chat), but we plan to add this feature in the next update.

Thanks for the answer.

And this was very nice of you to allow people play multiplayer on demo.
You guys have done a great job on this game.
