How is the multiplayer

How is the multiplayer would be my real question?

Are there still any servers up and running? And my guess would be that you only can play as wolf packs online, am I right? I would also really appreciate if someone could share their multiplayer experiences in this thread.

Oh, and sorry for the misleading title.

I thought I'd heard there is no more online play. This could be due to the upcoming release of SHO or I could have misunderstood.

I have no clue to be honest... I have not followed SHV since release...

That would also explain why there is so little posts about the multiplayer in SHV when you search the forums.

While I never used mp in SH5, I would hazard a guess and say that it would be little different from previous installments, assuming all players had the EXACT same mod soup running stabily on their respective machines. I don't recall a MP mission generator unlike 3 an 4, so I would imagine the pre-scripted mp missions would get old quick.

Scripted missions do sound a bit dull...

Just bought the game for MP only. I have seen 1-2 servers which aren't hosted by me or my friends so I would say MP is quite dead unless you have some kind of group to play with.

CO-OP itself already started to repeat itself a bit and so custom missions are the next thing to try for me. But well for the price of one euro it's quite alright.
