Is this true?!! Why did they advertise split screen/local co-op on their STEAM news then?!

It's not true. Saica-Fox is trolling or just ill-informed.
You can split-screen on PC with two controllers.
You can even turn a single screen game into a split screen one seamlessly just by activating the second controller.

I don't know the exact buttons/settings for it yet though, I'm still downloading the game.

Guess I won't buy it until that's addressed.

In this forum they literally wrote in the sticky:

Is there split-screen co-op?
Yes.

Saica-Fox is wrong.
There is split-screen coop.

confirmed that it works, start a single player game, create your first player, start the game, once you get past initial cinematics, connect a second controller (i have one via usb and one via bluetooth), the split screen will then appear with the character creation screen loaded, once you create the second character, both will be in the starting location

I need to know to...pls help. Could i with key and control?

press A on the second activated controller in character creation screen of the main player then you should be able to create your second player alongside the main player - my wife and I just tested it and it worked fine that way; not sure how to do it once you are already in game though (if you are both using keyboard/ mouse then maybe just clicking ot typing is enough?)

I'm guessing when you have a second controller connected you can have another profile loaded up. Either that or the other player presses to join during character creation. Haven't tried because the release is two hours old.

As for split-screen behaviour itself, the screen is shared when you are in close proximity and splits into two when you move further apart.

Can one player play with keyboard + mouse and the other player with a controller?
