Duo Disadvantage and no 4 player?

[Jam]

The reasoning for not having four player is because when playing solo you would have to control 4 different characters at once. I understand that would be overwhelming but I am confused why there can not be a balance to just allow for a maximum of 3 players in solo.

I feel like this is already done in duo when they only allow for only two characters. It seems like it would be better if in duo each player controlled two players and there was a four player maximum.

What are peoples thoughts on this?

I would like a 4 player option for sure. It seems like someone is at a disadvantage, I feel like even groups is the most common. Hard to find a good 3 person squad, whilst I feel 2 or 4 player groups happen naturally

I think it's weird we don't have a bot in 2 player? Also I was incredibly bummed 4 player isn't a thing. I almost didn't buy this game when I noticed. It feels like a downgrade from the previous game. Hopefully they consider balancing and adding 4 player in later or having a new mode or something.

Yeah our group that played the original in 4 player co-op were disappointed, the game went from a guaranteed 4 x purchases to no purchases. :(

Hello! This isn't not something we're going to change now as it isn't trivial at all in terms of development, but I've transferred your suggestion to the team :)
