How do you get more people/computers in the game? 4 isn't enough, friends and I want to team up against a larger world

Hello,

You can check out our Blog post about Multiplayer Here. 4 Players are the max that you can have in one match.

In Anno 1800’s multiplayer mode, up to four players can join a match to settle and conquer islands in an alliance or in a race against each other to reach the victory conditions first. .

having so few slots is quite frankly stupid.

Hey lovro1966,

we're currently not planning to do changes to the amount of players in single- or multiplayer matches.

We're planning to release the coop mode in December which will allow you to play one faction together with up to 3 friends (which in theory could mean up to 16 players in one match). Maybe this is something you're interested in.

Cheers,
Ubi-Thorlof
