Co-op?

[Zach]

Will co-op be added down the road?

Just want to add to the feedback that co-op would get two instant purchases from me.

Ditto. Two copies the day it goes coop.

The defining feature is that it *isn't* coop. There's already a million coop offerings, i'm tired of games that assume it.

Coop -> Getting it with my friends and having fun playing it together again and again :D

Still keeping an eye on it in case there will be coop someday, by the game itself or mods.

Not every game needs, or even is built for co-op.

Co-op doesn't immediately make a game better, nor does not having it make it worse.

Hiya! Thanks for reaching out, super appreciate the curiosity. Currently we don't have any plans to add co-op!

Yeah, no Co-Op is gonna hurt the game. Take a note from Gunfire, they did it right.

Gunfire is just bad, period. All fps rougelikes should consider taking a slice from what Roboquest offered. All titles seem to fall flat after that released imo.

There are definitely not a million coop offerings of this genre.

Roboquest the beacon of coop FPS roguelike for me. Dropped it after an hour of solo but played 50+hours in 2 player coop. Great progression, world, loot, meta progression.

Crab Champions is amazing as a 4 player coop loot bonanza roguelike. Great in-run progression but lacking in meaningful meta progression.

Some people will cite Risk of Rain 2 or Gunfire Reborn. Sadly didn't work great for me. Runs felt too long.

If you could point me to even 20 great coop fps looter shooter roguelikes that I'm blind to I'd appreciate it.

I would say that the defining missing feature from Battle Shapers is online coop

Coop ist simply a must! Please add! I don´t like to play such games in SP.

Interesting take. Counter argument - Gunfire is fun AF. I do prefer Roboquest, however, the 2 person co-op limitation really holds it back.
