It does not.

The story is next to non-existent, and the game has matchmaking. If you want to see the story of this game, I think there is a video on youtube that contains all the cut scenes. It's around eight minutes long, lol :cleanseal:

The entire game is co op, there's no PVP.

You COULD play this game solo, but it's very not recommended, the bots need a LOT of work to be capable allies, and the fact they don't carry medkits or scriptures/grimoires is also very painful.

Game has very straightforward objectives, you can easily play on early difficulties without ever touching microphone. There is currently no way NOT to use matchmaking, there is no separate campaign mode, everything you play is coop and you will get matched with other people regardless you want it or not until singleplayer is added sometime later with better AI teammates.

Yeah, when matchmaking with public players maybe 1 in 100 will use in-game VoIP. You can tag\ping enemies and locations which is all the communication that is needed.

The entire game is coop and has full matchmaking. You pick a mission or quick play and it'll drop you in a lobby with three others.

There isn't really a "campaign" as such. Just a freeform set of missions that will be randomly available to run, similar to deep rock galactic mission system if you've played that.

No, not really. I do have to wonder exactly what Dan Abnett was brought on board to write, because it's not particularly evident.
If you are looking for a linear story mode game, this is not that. These are separate campaigns like L4D2.

Yea, there are in game tools like pings and such, you don't need to use a mic, in fact the vast majority of players don't.

It was more world building than story creation.
I'm sure he will have been involved in whatever story they're planning to roll out over the next few months to a year, but that wouldn't have been his main task.
