Jimbus Since theres currently 4 players that can play locally, why not give players an opportunity to have 8 local players in the same lobby where the company is guaranteed to gain more players interest as well as create more chaotic fun.
tehoo Jimbus If it's 8 players locally on a split screen, I think it's likely to be too small a screen on a TV, unless you're playing in a cinema or on a large TV, and for small screens it's likely to be much too small.
Allistervf I don't think splitscreen would work for 8. It'd have to be a fixed camera like smash which keeps all players on screen at once, and that would still make it hard to see what you're doing.
zuimaomao413 Allistervf This is a very difficult contradiction problem to resolve, in a local situation. If you need to solve this problem playing locally, more than four players, it takes enough intelligence to solve the problem. The best way and experience is to have a computer per person
Allistervf They probably cannot do that. If they could, they likely wouldn't be trying to play 8 player splitscreen.
Chubby Yes, 8 players in local too much, others wrote down the reasons why is it not ok. And in real 8 humans near to each other to use well this game together in the same time, it could be not comfortable either.
Engoni I would love to have 8 player split screen got a 85 icnh 4K tv now and 8 controllers, would totally be great at parties!
