Cant revive team mate. Deal breaker.

[publicENEMY]

I bought this game for me and my wife. Now im considering this game for my 2 kids. We are planning to play 4 player coop. Unfortunately, once my kids died, we have to survive until next area for them to revive. and most of the time, my kids spent time watching me playing. this sucks for them. after a while, they lost interest.

i think this game would benefit if you can revive team mate. other game like left 4 dead, call of duty zombie, world war z, you can revive team mates. also team mate revived after a while automatically, giving the dead team mate to wait and stick.

as of now, im not buying this game for my kids. let me know if i can revive my team mates.

I think you can Revive in ROR 2.

You know what guys, I posted in wrong thread. I want to post at ROR2, but instead posted at ROR1.

As for get gud, I play call of duty zombies with my kids. At first, they die a lot. But they have a chance when they get revived. Instead of waiting in bore, they actually participated when they wait to get revive. It was intense, but they have fun and learn the game while playing with family.

In Modern Warfare 3, spec ops mode, if one team mate dies, the game ends. The same with Resident Evil raid mode. This forces the player to keep in check of each other.

With ROR2, it seems like it was a solo game. It just happen they all together in a same session. Nothing happens to the team when they die. The team moves on. They dont need to work together.

I have limited time to spend so i only spend it with playing coop game with my family. no single player for me anymore.

At the very least, could it be possible to implement revive as an option? Maybe penalize by reducing the coin amounts? This game got potential. I love the intensity.

yeah getting good is really the only way and playing 4 is not the way to do that because the more you are in a game the harder it is

But if you want to play more as a team you should try to learn what items are good on which survivors

Going off of what you said on which items are good on who, I would reccommend trying to get an infusion as early as possible. Also, stacking crowbars to high heaven is great as they deal lots of extra damage to healthy enemies. This is fantastic in the late game, especially against elites and elite bosses. For chars with dodge moves such as the huntress, sniper and commando, lots of Pauls Goat Hooves will increase the distance you can dodge with those moves. If you don't have it already, get the Artifact of Command. This makes getting good items much easier as you can pick and choose which you want.

The only suggestion I can offer to you is to activate the teleporter as soon as possible once someone dies as this will result in the shortest amount of down time. It's also a good idea in general as it mitigates the power gap from time passing when a player is unable to gather upgrades.

I've found that activating the teleport pad as soon as possible for the first couple of loops through the stages is a pretty safe option until you have a decent cache of items

Idk about mods for ROR2, but if you are interested in ROR1 I have seen a mod that adds revive mechanics. There are some steam guides on how to mod the game.

Look for an unstable watch. It stops time for about 7 seconds? Lots of time to clear out hordes of enemies

The problem is: this game was not made with revival as a mechanic, and not planned on it.
The roguelike is the so called "charm" on this game for a reason. Games of this type reward you in a different way, like dead cells or the binding of Isaac. They give you items after you make some milestones on your sessions.
For that reason, there is the savior of the world! Dio! The lovely white bear that revives you (there is your revival mechanic) when you dig enough to get it.
You can have a lot of types of builds to prevent early deaths, or even mod the game to add the mechanic, or use the artifacts that can give you an early dio if you need it. But first you have to understand the fundamentals of the game instead of just demanding a new mechanic right away.
That can potentially break the gameplay experience (I mean the core game experience) that makes this game challenging.

To quote the game... "Try playing on "Drizzle" mode for an easier time."

Cheers. :)

You cannot. It works the same way as the first game.

Facts. Let them learn early.

Roguelikes are not family games for kids who arent willing to git gud OMEGALUL. For real though, roguelikes are for masochistic people who love to die over and over again for 20 hours until they can finally clear a game and then go back for the next 200 hours to unlock everything. Roguelikes are not for little kids who get frustrated that they get hit by bullets and die (wow).

There's actually a mod that does exactly what you are looking for. Check it out here: https://rainfusion.ml/

Installation is pretty simple too.
