No coop?!

[abhorror80]

I just happily told my friends TI was releasing very soon and now I read there us no coop? It's the point of these games! Would have even disregarded and go with p2w this game, but now it's pointless.

It's single player. And it's not P2W, unless you count killing a boss 20% faster as winning.

Is this the "100% multiplayer on release" kinda of plan? Sorry if that's an obvious question.

It's a "Maybe we will do it if the game isn't dead by then" type of plan.

We will not have coop modes in season 1. Coop is a feature that we will be adding to the game in the future.

And that is a deal breaker

Oh, no! Devs! Quick! Implement Coop or we will lose Valaryant! We can't have that! How can the game possibly exist if Valaryant won't play it! Sure, there are tens of thousands of Single Player games in the market. A lot of them sold tens of millions of copies. But they don't have Valaryant in them, so they are trash!

Brief and reasonable. I think we can see who's been generous with their clown awards.

Why are you being so defensive over someone else's opinion on a game feature? Torchlight has always been a coop game, so yes it's in peoples right to be confused or upset if a newer gamer in that franchise removes a core feature that's been in the game since the very first game.

Wow, you said that with a whole lot of confidence, didn't you? Torchlight 1 wasn't, in fact, Coop. Coop came with Torchlight 2. Feeling really dumb now, aren't you?

Also coop in 2 was extremely buggy and you could kill hours just trying to start a game with a friend.

I had no idea this game wouldn't have coop at launch... I read "Cross-Platform Multiplayer" in the store page (and I believed it :D), saw it was free-to-play and that was enough for me to give it a try.
That being said, if coop is comming in the future, my only concern is if multiplayer will be a different game mode than single player, forcing players to create new characters if they want to play coop or if we will be able to enjoy multiplayer with our levelled characters.

Nah, everything is online to begin with so it would make no sense in having a separate character for multiplayer.

Not that it realistically matters, unless he plans on playing on "Standard" instead of the Ladder.

Can you explain this better? Do you mean the game has two modes (ladder and standard) and characters from one of these modes can't be used in the other?
