SO HOW DOES COOP WORK?

[Blink]

do you join a hosts world save and if so can you pick up his stuff from his safe house etc? also can you give your friend mags and heal them?

[Lord Helios]

I too would like to know this!

[Noodle p.]

it works like you think it would however the joining player is very limited do to glitches and bugs and things but its ok for the most part

[Shyoto]

Yes. You join the host's game as another explorer. Never mind "stuff from his safe house" - you can pick up stuff directly from his bag. I be dropping artifacts into my buddy's drop pouch and grabbing fresh mags from his belt.

thats really sick love that, how does the player joining work tho does he have his load out from is single player save or are the characters different saves

no it's a different save. So you have mp saves and single player saves.
However be warned, there are a bunch of game breaking bugs for the second player. Your weapon will disappear, or you'll hold the pistol upside down, won't be able to read the text of the mission, won't have mission markers on the map, won't be able to see if you have loaded your mag, wont be able to smoke and MANY MANY more. This only affects the player that is connecting to the game it works just fine for the host.

sounds like multiplayer was made to just barely work, good to know, not that it won't improve which is a good chance it will. Also glad they built the multiplayer in from the start because adding in multiplayer always seem to fail or be too difficult. (like Hydroneer is a good example.)

Hydroneer (my go to example for this) by popular demand had tried to incorporate multiplayer, but after a few months of testing and trying, they realized that making multiplayer would require intensive changes to the coding and engine. They decided to scrap it and settle with screen sharing, if hydroneer started with multiplayer (even if super buggy like ITR 2) it would've at least translate multiplayer way better than trying to rework the engine.
