CoOp Lies. A message to devs (Though they likely won't see this)

Q. Will Lords of the Fallen have co-op?
A. Yes, you will be able to play the entire game with your companion of choice, in seamless co-op.

From your FAQ. Your ♥♥♥♥ is not "Seamless". If loot and story is not shared then it is not seamless. If friends have to be re summoned it IS NOT seamless.

How do you develop a game like this. In a world where the seamless coop Mod for elden ring clearly exists and does everything right. Then still manage to f up the seamless coop part? What is wrong you?

Refunding your trash just for you lies. So annoyed right now -_-.

Agreed. Nothing about coop in this game is seamless. I am refunding and will rebuy once we can actually share progress.

Got to agree with this. I bought this game to play this in co-op full seamless mode like Elden Ring mod, because how they advertise it, is what got me hyped up. Just to get disappointed with the release. Hope they fix the loot part at least..

What type of issues are you having out of curiosity? Me and a friends are doing coop and it seems ok so far.

You might have to wait for a mod, this doesnt seem like its just a switch the devs might be able to toggle so loot and story progress is shared

No loot is shared. Only host gets loot found on the ground or in chests.

No story progress is shared. Coop partner will have to redo all the areas the host did in order to complete the story.

I can get the open nature of the game and shiz. But even a save option of "You will start and need to complete this game with the same coop partner. This save cannot be played solo or with a different partner" That would fully sync everything would be ABSOLUTELY fine with me. No complaints.But no. They do this same trash system as elden ring that I have to wait for a mod or dev fix. I have no IDEA why these devs continue to be obtuse and annoying.

If you join a friend as guest for the entire game you'll be fighting the final boss in starter gear and be half of the hosts level LOL.

Modders please save us

Whoever did the summon is the ONLY ONE who will receive loot, progress, etc. You'll have to replay each area so both of you get through it and get the items etc. Trash system.

I can even do without story progress. But ITEMS? the one thing you really need to progress and make your character? That's so easy to sync I could add it myself in 10 minutes with access to the code base. This is ridiculous. Same reason I refuse to buy Atlas fallen, or any other of these stupid games that do this.

Well, to be fair, I got grouped up with a random who clearly advanced further than I did by having a shortcut open. If you got what you wanted, I could easily skip ahead in the level, which is not what these games are about. If they did what you guys are asking, they'd have to have a checkpoint system linked up with multiplayer so people can't just cheat ahead.

Aside from that though, I agree. If you can constantly play with others, you should be able to progress with them. It doesn't make any sense to go back 5 or 6 hours to do the same stuff over again.

Yeah that sucks. We've only just started but just noticed the loot.

The loot is just a part of the problem. Not only will you be left out of gearing options, but you also will have to complete areas twice as a coop partner, meanwhile, host gets to continue on.
