Split-Screen for PC?

Does your PC support two separate keyboard and mouse inputs being used at the same time for separate programs?

It does not. Which is why only a very small handfull of games for the PC even have support for split screen.

Given the hardware requirements for this title, you are not likely to ever see it supported on the PC. I doubt you will see it in the upcoming console release either.

And if you did some research on this, you would find a number of threads with the exact same answers.

Just because a game has a mod to allow split screen, does not mean that there is a big enough demand to support it. I would estimate that the demand is probably similar as the relational marketshare of Mac OS to Windows. There is no good reason to develop for the 1% or less. Especially when a 3rd-party mod already exists.

Just so everyone is aware, the new console edition will not have split-screen. The PC and console versions will be identical. They assessed the performance demands for doing split screen and there is no way the console edition could be equivalent to the PC version AND run split screen. It was just way beyond the capabilities of the PS5 and XBOX machines. It wasn't by a small margin that if they did a bit more optimization it could work.

And since they do want the the console and PC versions to be compatible and equivalent there won't be split screen for PC either.

Nothing he said was wrong and everything can be proven with facts.

Your response was bad. If something is not common, then it's usually not worth it.

Ever heard the saying.....just because you can, doesn't mean you should?

Yes, but only ever in regards to using frog dna to fill in the gaps when bringing dinosaurs back to life from mosquitoes trapped in amber....
