How to play with friends
To play Baldur's Gate 3 with friends, select Multiplayer to the main menu. From there, click the Create button at the bottom of the screen to create a multiplayer lobby. After creating a lobby, modify the " Who can join your game?"Setting on Friends only ou Invitation only. Then click on the empty player portraits to send invitations to your friends. You can also send the Server ID listed on the right side of the screen to your friends, and they can use it to join via Connection direct.
If your lobby is starting a new game, you can click launch when everyone is ready and you will all be taken to the character creation screen before starting your journey together from the very beginning. If someone leaves the game, control of their character will be returned to a player who is still logged in. Character assignments can be changed by pressing Esc and opening the Session menu.
The Session menu is also where the host can invite other players to the game. The game is saved on the host's machine, and they will need to invite everyone to the game if you all decide to replay and to continue your adventure. The host should load the game by themselves, press the Escape key, and open the Session menu to invite everyone back to the game.
Baldur's Gate 3 at-il Crossplay?
Baldur's Gate 3 supports cross play between PC and Stadia versions, but it is not currently enabled. When crossplay is live, you can invite friends from other platforms by creating a multiplayer lobby and giving them the server ID so that they can join through Direct Connect, but there are several issues with this. system because Baldur's Gate 3 is still in early access. Patches between the two versions are quickly rolled out, and if the two platforms are on different versions, they cannot play with each other. A patch was recently rolled out to address some multiplayer issues and more fixes are in the works, but things are still tough shortly after the game's initial launch.
Does Baldur's Gate 3 have a split screen?
The split screen will be in Baldur's Gate 3, but it's not currently available. Larian's latest game, Divinity Original Sin 2, supports local multiplayer and Baldur's Gate 3 will be the same in the future. The only split-screen info in Baldur's Gate 3, it's “not available when you launch Early Access,” so keep an eye out for local multiplayer updates.
Baldur's Gate 3 multiplayer not working
Even though Larian is rapidly rolling out patches and fixes to all versions of the game, there are still a plethora of issues with Baldur's Gate 3's multiplayer mode. The game is in Early Access, so some issues are to be expected, but many people have encountered very strange problems while playing with friends online. One bug in particular that plagues Baldur's Gate 3 co-op sessions is the inability to end your turn during combat, which essentially locks up the game and prevents you from progressing. The only advice I can offer is to save often in case you run into any issues. This is an early access release, so things aren't working out perfectly right now. If you can't connect to your friend's room, try having a different player host or try joining through another method such as Direct Connect. Again, some things just don't work as well as they currently should, and you might just have to wait for a patch before playing Baldur's Gate 3 online.
