How exactly does Co-op work?

I've just started playing and am loving it. I have a friend who is interested in trying out co-op too, but I don't really understand how it works. Can someone explain it to me? Is it like single player but with a friend?

Cooperative multiplayer is a type of multiplayer that does not involve active competition between the player-controlled parties and as such usually takes place computer-controlled parties. Typically cooperative mode is distinguished from simply setting up a multiplayer match aganst bots in that it is based on the single-player experience, as is the case with Silent Hunter III, in which the level of fire control technology offerred does not allow meaningful player-vs-player combat.

In MP you log on the Ubisoft server were you join other U-boat Captains to play on MP maps working togeather as a wolf pack(togeather). How ever... The Ubisoft servers are no longer available.. So it can only be played through LAN. There is a program called tunngle, and here you will be able to play with others over the internet useing LAN via Tunngle.

It is fun to do. I do not know if it is possable to play on the Steam net work via LAN, but some games I have on steam I played on the LAN for privet net work and some how other steam members had join it. It may not work the same for SH3..

Thanks, this was the kind of answer I was looking for. How does time compression work?

When I was doing so through tunngle I didn't see any real difference than when I did it on a LAN with a buddy. Or did you mean in time compression like we do to get to a grid? dosen't work.

When you do MP, a game map is selected, then you work togeather as a wolf pack taking out the enemy ships. There is no "we all are leaving differnt ports" so there is no time compres.

how ever that would be cool to do. I guess if everyone had the time to waste, like a weeks worth, you could make a grid senerio and leave the same port togeather. Just it will take the real world time to get there..
