Coop Steam Group – Local Host Multiplayer Info
[link]–
Just a heads up for all the Final Exam players out there on how the multiplayer works, the multiplayer system for the game Final Exam uses Local Host connections (or im fairly certain it does at least), meaning whoever the Host is has their PC run the match and it allows other players to connect to them, instead of there being a Dedicated Server between the 2 players that runs the match for them to connect to.
So the #1 way to make the performance as good as possible in a Local Host multiplayer system is to make sure you dont use Wi-fi, so make sure your using an Ethernet Cord and have your PC plugged in to your Internet Router so the connection is as stable as possible for the person connecting to you, otherwise if your using Wi-fi you can guarantee that anyone that joins you for coop will lag to the point its not worth playing.
You may also wanna try to make sure the person joining you isnt really far away, cuz with Local Host the further the distance the worse the ping is constantly, even with out the random fluctuations of Wi-fi.
If your joining a Dedicated Server multiplayer system and using Wi-fi its probably fine for you cuz your internet just has to handle only your connection, but in Local Host your PC / internet connection handles your connection and anyone connecting to your match, so it might not seem like a big deal but its literally a night and day difference
so hopefully that helps to make some players game performance better and happy gaming guys and girls!
(Really you should always use an Ethernet Cord for online gaming these days, especially competitively otherwise your potentially screwing yourself, although in games with Local Host multiplayer systems its actually necessary, otherwise everyone except the Host of the match will lag up a storm lol, and i know its a pain to run a cord from your Device to your Router but its 100% worth it)
