I think it's easiest to play with a partner because you've already (hopefully) got very solid communication with each other so there's no issues. I think people forget communication is important in all relationships, romantic or not sometimes :)

[@softiequeen]

Sameee and it's actually way more enjoyable to play with someone!

[@siregrungelord]

Yeah and also its a good idea to get backup while in the mines which can make it a lot easier, and you can also pick up more loot.

You can set the funds to seperate. I once joined the world of my friends friends. 2 people I didn't know alongside my friend. I was already feeling pretty awkward so I was just kinda doing my own thing. It was spring 1 so I stacked some cash and went to pierres and blew all my money on crops as you do to make as much profit as possible.... then to my terror I realized the funds were shared by ALL of us. thankfully they thought it was funny and it didn't matter in the end but omg the stomach drop moment lol

[@makkusaiko]

The time crunch was so much worse in multiplayer, bc you cant even pause to google smth etc, so we just installed a mod to pause when all players paused. I think its acalled multiplayer time or smth

Did you know there is a multiplication glitch? All you have to do is get a piece of furniture (i like to use gem replicators) And you and your friend use a pickaxe and hit it at the same time and it will drop 2 things and not 1

[@-Apothecary-]

I started playing multiplayer with my partner recently and we're always discussing and debating when to buy specific stuff before we get it. We're only in the middle of Summer 1 but we've been blazing through and came up with a plan. Spring 1 we first bought a silo, the first backpack upgrades, and upgraded our tools to copper. Summer 1 we're focusing on iron upgrades and upgrading the house to a kitchen. Fall 1 we're gonna build the first barn & coop and get the animals. Winter 1 we're doing gold upgrades and maybe the 2nd backpack upgrade. It's most helpful if you're communicating verbally. If you can't play in the same room, then maybe do phone calls or discord calls. Whatever works for you.

[@pierson9905]

The no-pause while surrounded with enemies is a curse. If you’re low and tryna leave the mines on the ladder, the transition takes forever and the monsters WILL still get u 🥲 the amount of times this happened to me, don’t even wanna talk bout it 💀

[@TheKillerham5ter]

The hardest thing to adjust to is the no pausing in multiplayer, this also applies to time not freezing during npc heart events. Meaning entire days can be lost just watching the cutscenes, since if you skip them you miss out on extra friend points. Also sorting chests becomes a speedrun due to time not stopping when opening them.

[@katla_phc]

The pause thing is killer! It’s basically the same mechanism as dark souls

[@Orez-Suke]

thats why there is an option for separate money , No pause is painful tho Especially when we fish

[@ThalryGames]

I relate to this so badly! My gold is missing and there's some random background noises (from the other player) when I triggered an event on the same map.

[@pocketdirt338]

In multiplayer I always make sure that everyone's money is separate so this stuff never happens

[@ChromeSalt]

The cuts are very realistic, that is how bad it lags.

[@phluffydragon8097]

I see everyone in the comments complaining about how they died because the pausing is different in multiplayer but i havent really had that problem. Me and my brother have been playing multiplayer stardew every day and if you eat in the mines time doesnt pause but the monsters cant do damage to you during the animation and if we’re ever in a pickle we yell for the other to pause

[@Muffinn_Cakes]

Same. I play with my siblings too. I think having multiplayer and shared money is actually pretty useful... Like if I run out of energy and haven't watered the garden yet, then the other player could just do that. And mining together is so much faster too. Plus when there's a quest on the board and you both do it, you get twice the money. And you each get the rewards from the museum.

[@friskfulx5027]

My friend paused while I was casting my fishing rod, and all I heard was the ringing

[@mikewatts9562]

Best thing is split funds. You make yours. I make mine.

[@sweetestpiano]

i always mentally prepare myself for my friends wanting their own big purchases and try to accomodate them as best as i can and try not to spend all our money first

[@Toadthefungi]

Not to mention that time while fishing doesn't pause either

[@MostLikelyMe621]

Me and my friends have a system for big purchases, where we take turns on who gets to spend a huge amount of money. It’s like a rotation.

[@whitetober7825]

The best thing about multiplayer with my two friends is summarized in 3 examples Hearing my friend on call go "nooo" and then immediately afterwards getting the notif that he passed out in the skull caves Randomly hearing the words "bad news, we're poor now" and seeing our money disappear within the blink of an eye And being "wingmen" whenever it comes to spouses - if we get smn that is a favorite of someone else's spouse, then we give it to them to give as a gift

[@aqua2k210]

This is why you split your bank accounts and go mining together

[@markeye2043]

Me: saves up enough gold for a backpack My friend: buys 120 parsnip seeds

[@taylorbattaglia3006]

I did the shared money on my first world with my daughter and it was a nightmare. She’s 7, so not too knowledgeable about money yet, but ugh! We split funds on our next farm, and I learned to hide my chests so she doesn’t “accidentally” take stuff I need/ have been saving for community center or whatever. I’ve just come to accept no pauses, and skip every cutscene even if it’s one I haven’t seen because I cannot waste that time

[@1di0syncr4zy]

In multiplayer, me and the other player always race to get the crops lol.

[@filippturbin5101]

[@AvalonQueen34]

My sister and i always shout what are we going to do before clicking bc we freak out when the money starts to disappear out of nowere 😂 so you can be fishing and suddenly hear "PICKAXE" and the money starts to go down

[@reasull]

The time thing is so easy to work around, if you need to take a break make sure one of you sells something. Also, just be coordinated or if you need to be invulnerable for a second, eat something.

[@katalystarts]

[@slurryz8648]

Dude the pause is terrifying

[@9livesninja]

This was trippy cause we have the exact same character hair and outfit

[@sanlimul127]

I played with my friends we really had a hard 1st yr. We litterally had to set territories to plant trees because there were not enough wood for the three of us. One of my friends would always cut all the trees and hardwood and some times cut the trees I planted. And in the mines we decided to not go with each other because the drops would be picked by another especially if you found a rare drop

[@Ihere123]

Separating money is the best-recommended option for multiplayer. Even I wouldn't trust my hard-earned money for someone buying an expensive boot or upgrading their house. Then again, back then, there no money separation, so it was shtty. Pausing can be a problem if you're not prepared. I'd rather set my secondary backpack slots as "Dungeon set". Simply just place your pickaxe and weapon at the first and second slot to the left (or right, if you're lefty), adding with whatever edibles that can recover you, and bombs at the end of the slot. Switching between bombs and pickaxe is faster this way, while the food can be eaten whenever you're safe. Then again, unless the mouse wheel works the same, this set is only useful for controller, not PC. Also, someone skip-sleeping (sleep for next day without current-day effort) works the same as pausing. Even waiting for another player(s) during a festival event (Egg Hunt, Fishing Competition, Moonlight Jellyfish, etc.) also counts as pausing.

[@johannaappleforest7482]

As someone who transferred to multiplayer, the pause thing I had to learn to get used to. Now I only do multiplayer. So much more fun.

[@undodogyts9975]

Thats why u do separate funds and jst wire over some money if they need it

[@abbeybelanger8118]

My friend was getting a bunch of fish to complete the fishing bundle and her BF (another good friend of mine) sold it to buy a chicken coop

[@psycatic5579]

The only thing I hate about Multiplayer is that I can’t separate which mill fills up which animal farm so me and my friends are separate

[@krysivory493]

I hope the new patch fixes this pause problems. I mean, if we can go to bed at different times, IT shouldn't be a problem for any player to pause. WE can WAIT for others to sleep to go to next day. Well, Eric... 😭🌊

[@chillpenguin7679]

not to mention, time absolutely FLIES in multiplayer. in single player, the game does all these micropauses when you're eating/picking/fishing/traveling between maps/etc etc, but in multiplayer? ZERO micropauses. Cuts the time of the day down to a small fraction of what a full day in singleplayer Stardew feels like

[@blue_sea404]

I constantly pause to maximize my time each day efficiently so the few times I have played with friends it’s always been so disorienting

[@idyllarawr]

after you die if you're the one that isn't hosting then you can alt f4 before the cutscenes and stuff happen and your friend can just reinvite you, you won't lose money or items

[@kirby-impostor5594]

You can split money in the Mayor's house

[@nightskys_1274]

You can turn on seperate money in the advance settings. It basically gives each of you your own money based on only what you or they sell instead of you both sharing
