Online Co-op?

[Khaos]

How does online co-op work? Is it just some small part somewhere in the future of the game? I've really enjoyed what I've played, and would like to play it with a friend, when does it unlock.

Please tell me it isn't JUST the 2nd person control the bird nonsense.

Theres some sort of advice about the island naming so I guess is not the local coop thing as the game literally says you can use remote play. I haven't reach the point where you unlock any sort of coop though, so I cannot tell and I hope someone does. I'll try to remember this thread in case I eventually unlock it

You'll eventually hit a point in the story where it'll introduce online co-op.

The 2nd-person-controls-the-bird nonsense is for local co-op/couch co-op.

WKC quests were like this too. They had time limits from 15 to 45 minutes.

So multiplayer are just gated missions from what i have seen and read here? Tbf, little disappointing as the trailer made it seem more open, but not a dealbreaker

[Tony Soprano]

does this mean that you can only play in certain areas together? 1 hour session meaning after 1 hour you get booted?

I haven't gotten to the actual mp yet so I'm basing this off the video (I speak japanese), but basically the host can start up a room/session, and you have to gather/fight etc to fill up your Challenge points. Once you hit 100 points, a Legendary would appear somewhere on the map at random. You guys have to work together to either fight or mine it.

In the video the legendary they got was a tree, but only 2 of the girls had the woodcutter's life, so they gave up on it. You also only had 25min to take down the legendary before it disappeared, so I guess you can do 2 in one session if you're efficient?

There was also a shot of the rest of the sessions/missions in the lists and there were some sessions that would tell you "anglers recommended" etc. The session they played was All lifes type. The map was really big and you're free to run around, climb cliffs, swim etc in the entire map. You can also do every job in there (mine/pick up stuff, fight, gather etc).

They also commented that they were leveling up a lot faster in the mp session so I'm guessing it's shared drops and exp so it might be nice either way to just hang out in a room and grind together.

Wow thats kinda really disappointing....My wife and I both bought it thinking we could play just normal coop, basically the single player but with a friend in a shared world.

Thanks for the lengthy explanation, was rly helpful. Not the kind of multiplayer i expected and a bit disappointed, but not a dealbreaker. Pre-ordered the game now, waiting for wednesday

I reached multiplayer in 2 hours and half, you can host a room and optionally choose an objective/mission. If you start in mission mode then the multiplayer will only be that mission. If you set the room to any then you play normally in the past island. Story and job reporting are paused in multiplayer. Local co-op is and only one player controls a character while the other controls the pet.

What is with japanese devs and the most ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ stupid takes on multiplayer
