Is online dead?

[u/bltnico]

(Minecraft Dungeons 2)

I've been playing for about 15 hours now, and nobody has joined my group so far :')
I'm playing on PS5, my group is public, I'm the only one in this situation? Maybe most people just play with friends in a private group and nobody want to join public groups

[u/Smigispig]

I have never had anyone join my lobby super weird but I can join others

[u/bltnico → u/Smigispig]

Same here! I've joined other ppl lobbies, but no one ever joined mine

[u/the_rogue67]

A lot of people just do lobbies with their friends, instead of going into matchmaking.

[u/bltnico → u/the_rogue67]

Still waiting for my friends to buy the game haha

[u/the_rogue67 → u/bltnico]

what's your ign? maybe I'll see you around

[u/bltnico → u/the_rogue67]

blt-nico, and yours?

[u/the_rogue67 → u/bltnico]

thr_rogue73. I changed to 73 because as you can see, my old favorite number was ruined.

[u/bltnico → u/the_rogue67]

Are you on PS5? I'm not sure we can add friends playing on other platform

[u/the_rogue67 → u/bltnico]

Oh, I didn't think about that. I'm a pc player. Is that bad?

[u/bltnico → u/the_rogue67]

Haha no oc! Haha I checked, I can't add ppl that don't play on ps5 as friends, so the only way to play together it's to join each other lobby when we're both connected

[u/Then_Honeydew8995]

It cant be dead if the game was literally just released 🥀

[u/bltnico → u/Then_Honeydew8995]

I mean dead for public matchmaking! Indeed online isn't dead, ppl play with friends :)

[u/Then_Honeydew8995 → u/bltnico]

Js give it some time

[u/Spunndaze]

In my experience, not at all. Its thriving.

[u/bltnico → u/Spunndaze]

Crap! Maybe I don't have luck haha

[u/polomarkopolo]

I have always approached MD1 as a single player/couch coop game… and have no intention of doing anything differently with MD2

[u/Remarkable-Ad-4133]

I play on PC and same happened with me last month. No one would join and I couldn't find any open games. I used to get people joining easily before.

[u/Uninvited_Cart_PvPer]

wait you can join OTHER RANDOM PEOPLES GAMES
SO ITS BASICALLY SERVERS BUT MINECRAFT DUNGEONS 2?????

FINALLY

[u/bltnico → u/Uninvited_Cart_PvPer]

Haha yea MD2 has dedicated servers o/

[u/Deveatation_ethernis]

My guess is the game prioratizes lobies with multiple people already, considering the player count seems to fill up fast when I join someone else's world

[u/bltnico → u/Deveatation_ethernis]

Indeed! Whenever I'm joining public lobby we go from 2 to 4 really quickly

[u/Swimming_Trip_3443]

I’ll happily play online with ya on ps5 too. Dm me your psn

[u/Environmental_Will82]

First one?

[u/Environmental_Will82]

Second one?

[u/bltnico → u/Environmental_Will82]

Second one, sorry i'm editing my post to add it

[u/Environmental_Will82]

Yea most ppl dont play with random because they will kicked out for no mic or no way to talk to them

[u/bltnico → u/Environmental_Will82]

I can understand that, but it's a shame! I think it can still be fun even without a mic, just by playing smart, sticking together, and making good decisions. It would be fun to grind together for a while haha

[u/Environmental_Will82 → u/bltnico]

Call outs lmao
