Hey everyone with the steam sale going on I was looking for some recommendations for games for five people.

Thanks!

Lethal company is an obvious choice. I think you need a mod to play with 5 people though.

[-] wolfshadowheart@slrpnk.net 7 points 10 months ago

Very easy to mod it thankfully

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 10 months ago

deep rock galactic along with that, also needs a mod for more than 4 players but it's trivial to get and works well from what i've heard

[-] snowe@programming.dev 1 points 10 months ago

There’s a mod for five?!?

[-] themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

Sure is, the mod is on nexusmods I think and it's called more company. Since everyone needs to install it, I suggest also looking into other mods like alternate outfits and such

[-] Vinny_93@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

BattleBit if you liked Battlefield

God I just fucking love getting one tapped by a sniper with 600 hours from 1400m out.

spoilerI still like the game, but it definitely can be frustrating sometimes

[-] helenslunch@feddit.nl 3 points 10 months ago

This is a great game and I'm happy to have paid for it but yeah, I gave up about 20 hours in. Needs better rank matching.

[-] datavoid@lemmy.ml 2 points 10 months ago

My exact experience, and I have hundreds of hours in various battlefields

[-] sharkaccident@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I usually play sniper and I think the recent update really nerfed the sniper class. I'm now starting to learn a different class...

[-] ContentConsumer9999@kbin.social 8 points 10 months ago

Well, I'm not sure this is what you're looking for but Tabletop Simulator is a board game simulator that has a diverse category of games in its workshop mod. I'm sure a lot of the games can be played with 5 players.

[-] Mr_Vortex@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 10 months ago

I came here to say exactly this. My favorite games for 5+ players are Codenames and Sushi Go Party Edition.

[-] Stern@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Of those on sale-

Terraria

Killing Floor (And 2)

Torchlight 2

Raft

Human Fall Flat

Powerwash Simulator

[-] Drusas@kbin.social 3 points 10 months ago

Torchlight 2 may have been around for a while now, but it's still a great game.

[-] highenergyphysics@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

In order of casual friendly at top, to real gaming hours at bottom IMO

Sea of Thieves

Valheim

Project Zomboid

Factorio

[-] HappycamperNZ@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Sea of thieves is great but only 4 - good backup.

May I suggest barotrauma if you can work together.

[-] zerosilversky@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago
[-] eco_game@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 10 months ago

Great game but sadly has a max of 4 players

[-] helenslunch@feddit.nl 5 points 10 months ago

Where do you guys find people to play with?

I really love co-op games but I don't have many gamer friends and playing with randos who quit mid-game or constantly throw out insults isn't much fun...

[-] Sandbag@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Friends from college mostly.

[-] Rosco@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

Terraria (I recommend the Thorium mod that add healer and support classes!)

[-] b166erdk@lemmy.ml 3 points 10 months ago

7 Days to die

[-] Secret300@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago
[-] str82L@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Talisman Digital Edition

[-] Ghostlight@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Phasmophobia is the best. Unfortunately only for four players total.

[-] ChadyzGroove@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Tower Unite this is the game my friends and spend the most time in casually, it has so many mini games and it's just weird too.

[-] Drusas@kbin.social 2 points 10 months ago
[-] pulverizedcoccyx@lemmy.ca 1 points 10 months ago

Fun but also ruthless. Even with YouTube videos I can never seem to get the hang of it.

[-] Drusas@kbin.social 3 points 10 months ago

I've never watched the videos. I read the wiki, but otherwise just wing it. Can't say I'm great at it but I have a lot of fun.

[-] Dagnet@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Core Keeper if you want to craft and chill, with some intense combat too sometimes

[-] Squid@leminal.space 2 points 10 months ago

Lethal company + more company mod. Ready or not. May ruin some friendships..

[-] HeavyRaptor@lemmy.zip 2 points 10 months ago

We have been playing Insurgency Sandstorm, I believe it's up to 8 players coop

[-] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Stardew Valley I think is up to 5 (the host and 4?), if not then Sunhaven I'm fairly certain it's up to 8, if y'all like farming sim things.

[-] YoorWeb@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Civilisation V if you have a lot of time on your hands.

[-] Lipriv30@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago

What about games that you can drop in and play with others. I know dead by daylight, matchmaking is easy for strangers to play together online. There’s got to be more games like that.

[-] sbv@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

@PostWatchBot@lemy.lol

[-] Outtatime@sh.itjust.works -2 points 10 months ago

Ready or not.

Not sure if it's on sale but it's awesome

[-] Catsrules@lemmy.ml 3 points 10 months ago

I am ready.... Can you tell me now?
