None that I know of.

The version of CryEngine 3 (not CryEngine 3, the version of CryEngine 3) can not handle multiplayer, condemned for errors such as booting clients every 2 minutes.

Originally there was supposed to be, but the devs lied to make sales on Xbox 360, State Of Decay 2 releasing next year will have multiplayer though.

Oh please. Multiplayer was never officially announced before launch. Multiplayer was never announced with the game at all, for that matter.

I followed the development a year before release, I read the news posts about them talking about the possibility of a multiplayer addition but it never went past throwing the idea around of it during development. The game ended up being announced and launched with no multiplayer with it.

Yea, I remember reading it from the official forum that they wanted and planned to, but never actually promised multiplayer.

SOD 2 could have multi-player. Or just player-like AI.

SOD 2 has 4 player co-op.

Is it really that hard to check their site or Google it?

Hm, it seems it will.

"next year"
I guess this means no co op mods. Kinda sucks cos SOD 2 has really bad co op. Its the kind of co op youd expect from Fable 3 or Destroy All Humans 2 (ie if the online friend is too far from player one it warps you or restricts the players from moving past the screen; also when one player pauses the screen pauses for everyone playing)

No clue if SOD 2 updated to make it true free roam on both ends but from what i remember when i first played 2 with a friend thats what the online was like. And idk if theyre ever planning to fix it.

The fact that they tried to make SoD2 co-op and failed should tell you all you need to know about why SoD1 was never co-op.

Conversely SOD has a great hardcore fan-base. Although it's obviously not the same as being able to play a actual co-op game, many of the discussions, screenshots, fan art, videos and streams as well as having it's own database is a great way for fans to stay in touch help each other out and learn new things about the game. I've learned a lot myself just here on this forum from our little discussions. It's also a good way for new players to ask about the basics or check out the tutorials to help come to grips with the basics. It can be quite encouraging if nothing else.

You can find a lot of the old guard fan base (from the original UndeadLabs forum) at this web site. It also contains a lot of information about the game where people who are interested in the SoD games frequent.
