Local Co-Op

[eTernitY89]

I bought this game only for the purpose of playing it together on the same screen. I can't believe this isn't working, since there's a local co-op mode for the PS4 version. Is there any statement if and when they will add this (mandatory) feature?

[eTernitY89]

Yeah, I guess. Or whatever they come up with to make it work on a single screen.

As far as I am aware Klei hasn't said anything about splitscreen co-op on PC.

Klei are not actively working on a local co-op system for PC. I don't think they've explicitly stated it'll never be an option, but given there's been a small number of people asking for it since the release of Don't Stave I'd argue they have no intention of implementing it.

Why? Including it as an option wouldn't have any detrimental effect to you or how you play, but would potentially improve the game for others.

Klei said they might consider adding Splitscreen once they finish the new zone. Personally I hope they do. I'm sick and tired of console Gamers being favored by companies, and constantly getting features that we don't. Even though PC is where it all began.

so the only way to play it with your friends locally is if they purchase it as well?
that's bull

+ they have to play it on another console, on another screen.

I hope they use a dynamic splitscreen.
One which automatically and smoothly switches from a single screen, when players are close together, to a split screen, when players are further away than one whole screen.

There's nothing worse than a splitscreen, where both halves show the exact same thing, because the players are so close together.

That of course depends on how many players such a local single-screen co-op would support.
Support of multiple screens, with splitscreen on each, would work for more players.

Checkout "Nucleus Coop" on google, or on reddit. You'll find it :)

well they give you 2 copies of the game for the price of 1 ;d
Just give second copy to person which you want to play with and problem fixed

No, problem not solved.
OP wants to play on the same screen with partner. Like a Mario Kart, a Goldeneye 007, Timesplitters, any fight game, etc ...
Do you think you bought 4 copies for the price of 1 when you play Mario Kart ? No.

Local coop exist since the dawn of video game. And it has not the same purpose and sensations as playing each one on separate system or room or place.

To the developpers to choose that ofc.
