How many for co-op?

[MrSays]

Will co-op be just 2 players, or 3 or 4?

[Gary]

It'll be 2 players.

We started off with 4, but we're a tiny team so balancing the game for singleplayer + 2-player co-op was big enough, each extra player added a huge volume of additional work so we didn't want to compromise the rest of the game.

Maybe 3 then is the soft spot?

100% understandable.
As cool as more than 2 players would be.
A stable game with enough content is more important.

Are you guys open to the idea to make it 4 player coop in a future update?

It's not out of the question, but right now it's unlikely.

I'd definately strive for a 3 player experience, usually a nice spot for 2 buddies to play with.

Just like Mw3 2011 Survival mode :)

On our last game we did a Major Update every 2-3 months and I'd expect a similar cadence on SENTRY. We're currently planning for co-op to be the second Major Update, so if those estimates remain true it'd be somewhere between 4 and 6 months.

oki, ill wishlist the game and will check in a few months than, thx for reply!
