Co-Op isn't prioritised

[ICBM]

Co-Op isn't prioritised, its in a sub menu & even on day 1 the "lobby" is empty, like in omd3.
The maps are designed for multiple player from what I've seen, but the game is not in the way omdu was.
If your going in with 3 friends to play with, great. but for pug's its not great, just omd4 without a campaign

It seems all their games are more pushing Co-op for sure (which is good but...). The glaring issue with EVERY single release of theirs is that TRYING to find a Co-op game, where folks are all speaking the same language, from the same continent (for latency/de-sync sake) and people who are going to continuously return was the BANE of the entire Franchise for me.

I hope they can fix it in this release or it'll be a day-one game nobody touches until it goes DEEP sale. Then, like last iterations, we buy it for our library and it ends up being a Solo till you can't anymore, boring "adventure" that winds up being you trying to find Guides to solo cause nobody else is around.

They should have it like DRG, log in, random team of proper latency people load in. Rock and Stone! Not trying to get lucky with the menus to find a game at all rofl

Hope there is some kind of matchmaking, I play many coop games with low populations (5k players or less) with randoms without issues!

Like deep rock galactic, darktide or dozens more

Ya, but those game have a proper back-end setup. We're already seeing the negatives of their release pertaining to finding games. You tried any of their previous three? They all died out so fast I didn't even get time to play the third. Multiplayer ended up being more of a forced solo and you try until you are just overwhelmed. I remember the second iteration and a solid 20hrs of trying to love it. But just reverted back to the, trying to find someone, hoping they were not a flake, then playing for a match maybe and having the cycle repeat.

Hated it, which is why this morning when I saw this I was like.. oh some poor kids who only can buy a game or two are gonna get this without any buddies to jam to and be disapointed!
