Does the coop work

[CodeTiger]

I have the first van helsing game and the coop is broken. When ever I join a game it freezes and then crashes. So I would like to know if the 3rd install multiplayer is bugged. If you are having trouble with multiplayer or it is working fine, I would love to know. Thanks

Thats not a good answer Valkyrie, its a difference if the devs are playing in coop or if the little peasents like us are playing. Coop was broken from the start in vh1 and 2 i could never get a connection to my friend and we dont know why... We disabled antiviruses to be sure opened ports optimized drivers and still doesent work, i guess there has been no improvement to fix that?

Yes, cause the NAT service in the router checks during the connection estabilishment if you are a dev or not ^^

Also, we improved the netcode, to be more exact, currently we are using the 3rd version of it, and it has been rewritten nearly completely.

If you still experience connection issue, don't hestitate contact us, and we will try to do our best, to figure out the reason.

Well I ended up buying the game and at least the coop is working. Did have about 7 crashes in 7 hours, all but one on the computer that joined the host. However a reload and the error did not persist so we were able to continue the story. 3rd times the charm.

It's still just as broken as VH2. The game keeps freezing on loading screens pretty much every 10-15 minutes and there is something which, for the lack of a better word, i am going to call instance splitting, where the host of the game for some reason gets timed out from his own game (or something like that). No new mobs spawn anymore for the host and all other players stop moving. I wouldn't be surprised if that happened to the non host player, it would just be a weird consequence of timing out and not properly reconnecting, but this only happens to the host player.
If you take into consideration that this game has been released for about 24 hours i could deal with it, but this ♥♥♥♥ has been happening in previous installments of the series as well and quite frankly that's pretty ridiculous.

Well, my game crashes constantly in multiplayer making vh 2 multi seem perfect in comparison.

And after crash when I return to game I can see myself in the game as dead stuck to place clone.

My friend even took screenshot where I had two copies of same charecter on the same map next to each other.

Total bs.
