Correct. We are focusing entirely on creating the best possible Far Cry experience for our fans. Bringing the Stone Age to life and providing players with a strong gameplay experience based off of the Far Cry legacy meant we had to reinvent our core gameplay loop. This was definitely not a small undertaking. Our focus was on delivering this fantasy which required clear priorities for the team. Therefore, in the early stages of the project, we made the difficult choice of focusing our efforts on the single player experience.
Looking forward to your thoughts once you get your hands on the game!

This is great news and the reason I will buy!
Single player was always an option for the original game so no co-op would have no effect either way if you played single player anyway.
OP I understand that you really like co-op but personally I'm very happy they are focusing on the main game instead of worrying about things that could water down the main game because they spent time on add-ons.
Singleplayer=buy now Singleplayer=cost-effective Singleplayer=300 hours + coop 100 hours is over.
Now that's bs if I've ever read any. I love my single player games, but adding co-op to it easily doubles the amount of game time. It certainly doesn't lessen the game time. That doesn't make any sense.
Dying Light, or even Far Cry 4, for examples. I played the games almost entirely by myself, and where I would have stopped playing with any other single player game, I get an almost entirely repeat play through by doing the co-op campaigns as well.
Even Black Ops 3 is a good example. Up to 4 player co-op made the campaign a completely new experience.
Having said all that, I still plan to get this game. I love my single player games, but where I would have bought a game like this full price with a co-op mode, I'll probably wait for a sale. Co-op and multiplayer games you want to jump on top of being able to play with your mates that are also playing at that time. Single player games can wait. They're not going anywhere.

Unfortunately coop is a must for me. Too bad

As it usually, the developers announce the opinion of ghostly fans. :)

+1. Agree.
