Sandbox action game Just Cause 2 was a blast to play solo, but sadly shipped without any kind of multiplayer. No matter. Fans of the gameās PC edition have whipped up a version that lets a reported 600 people play it at once. On the same island.
The results are predictablyā¦insane. Note that this is a fan-made thing, and is still in testing, so probably has a wys to go yet before itās ādoneā. Still. Even whatās on show here looks great
The footage above was captured during a test run for the mod held over the weekend. 10,000 players took part in all, an average of over 400 new players every hour, with a peak server load apparently topping out at 1300+ players (Iām not sure if they were all on the same map or notā¦Iād be surprised if they were).
You can check in on the mod at the links below.
