Offline Play & Local Coop?

[ドキドキ]

Does this game have offline local coop, yet? Saw it on sale, but without those two features I'm not going to buy. Thank you in advance.

Hi there,

Party Animals offers local co-op gameplay.
To create a new local player in the Quick Match and Custom Game modes, you can press the "LB" and "RB" buttons simultaneously on a controller. This supports up to 4 players in split-screen. Local games require multiple controllers, at least one keyboard and one controller for two players.

Thank you for supporting Party Animals!

Best,
Party Animals Support Team

don't buy this, you cant even get into the game if you're offline

Thank you for your response. I asked specifically for OFFLINE local coop. If it doesn't have offline local coop your response is purposefully misleading and borderline scammy.

You have to be online or you won't be able to play.
Which is a discutable choice given that local coop and versus exist.

I want local coop for playing couch coop.

With forced online functionality I'm not interested.

In the demo version, you can copy the game and play it offline without purchasing the game. Maybe because of this, this feature is not available now.

Any Tencent launch game never ever offer offline play

Same here was on the shopsite but with forced online no thx.
I dont care about excuses for a allways online.

Of course all Steam games need to be online.

Nope, steam have a Offline Mode. And most games i have dont need constant Internet.

[Katsper]

really wish i looked into/realized this before i hit the 2 hour mark, that's really unfortunate. good to know this game will at some point in the future be an inaccessible, useless product

The online is ok, but the offline is no sense, because this game is not planned for offline, it's online only. I am here from the beginning, when the game started in 2023. So i know well players asked many times offline and it was denied all the times, before the developers replied for it they won't. If they really want to add this, they could do it in previous year already, but they didn't. So for offline asking again and again have no sense.

you need online for local couch co-op and bot matches, explain how that makes sense? you claim to be playing since 2023 but fail to realize that there is already some form of offline play in this game when i figured this one out in a day, but it just doesnt make sense for local couch co-op and bot matches to still requiere a stable internet connection

[VaeliusNoctu]

Thats the Point.

But hey, I completely forgot. Couch co-op means five friends sitting on a couch with five PCs and playing together over the internet. Sorry, my mistake. Offline really doesn't make sense.

Don't forget that the bots run on a server and therefore need internet.
