Multi player is at 8 right now.
The score board will stay up as long as the host keeps it there. When that goes off then they are either switching maps or switching hosts. As far as it being there when you spawn, I would guess if it is reproducible, then that would be an issue that would need to be looked at.
Still very fun times, and I encourage all with the steam keys right now, to at least give it a try. The more people the more hosts can be set up and we can run it threw it paces and iron out any issues. If they are machine specific or program specific.
SO be there if you can. They announce when its going to happen and ask how many are thinking about playing so they can get the hosts machines ready in advance.
See you there.
