Islands of Insight

This is a multiplayer game with co-op
The puzzle-box type puzzles are 20% of the game, everything else can be done cooperatively by showing each other solutions or hints in-game and the devs will probably add support for multiplayer in the puzzle-box type puzzles its just that they ran out of time before launch. People saying this game isnt multiplayer or co-op are 🧢

The game has basically no co-op man. This is some serious copium. There is nothing about this game that is any more co-op then playing any puzzler in a discord call. Its simply not a co-op game.

They didn't "run out of time"; not only is this a very simple feature, it was implemented in the playtest and 1st demo. I don't understand why they removed it.

obviously there had to be issues with the feature that it wasn't implemented at luanch. maybe it was desync issues or maybe the feature just wasn't good the way it was implemented in the 1st demo and playtest

i've been playing this game for like 8 hours including the demo with my friend and it feels extremely cooperative in its gameplay

Don't feed the troll.
It's obvious that this game has no coop features, cooperation means "sharing, following and working on the same goal"

If you call this cooperative then Dark Souls 1 messages system is a coop game too.
Although even Dark souls has more of a coop than this game using the white soapstones.

And Dark Souls 1 is marketed as Singleplayer only. Do not fall for the troll. He is farming Awards.

I've been walking with my friends and solving the same puzzles as them by pinging the locations of the hard to find puzzles/hidden objects and having them to do the same. This is a co-op game. Gamers are just trying to spread FUD becuase they don't understand this game and they hate things they don't understand.

If people look at this person's profile, they seem to just farm clown awards.

I "earned" those clown awards by making forum threads to cancel transphobic game developers, not by posting "controversial" gaming opinions; excuse you.

No, man, he is just trying to be positive, because he likes this game and wants it to be a success. Just like me. I'm also getting a lot of these clown awards. To me it seems like people do overreact a little, and some are writing even toxic **** in these forums. People that are all pessimistic. It's true that this could be just a big scam by the devs. But not all games are like "The day before". Sometimes games have missing features at launch, for whatever reasons. Like "No man's Sky" or "Cyberpunk 2077". They both had a very bad start. But look at them now. It's too early to be all pessimistic in my opinion.

Yeah the game is great and I've had lots of fun playing coop so I don't get why everyone is so upset about the game

I saw Asmongold's Sponsored video of the game and thought it looked great. My Wife has Leukemia and just recently got a bone marrow transplant. This game seems like something that would be easy for her to get back into gaming with.

While I think that they are being liberal with the terms "MMO" and "Co-Op" a bit, this mode of play would be fun for the two of us to go around and explore together. Since we're in the same room next to each other, the limitations in communication aren't there. It also allows me to assist her with puzzles she may not be ready to easily solve yet. (Chemo Fog is awful)

Once she's feeling more up to it, I plan on picking up a couple copies for the two of us.

Interesting how they removed co-op from the store because they finally realized it was a bad look to be lying to the community.

Not bad. Guess co-op is off the menu for quite some time. Not that i care about it :)
