What kind of coop is this?

[Evilnapkin]

Campaign or horde mode?

[[DCC] Joe]

Hi Evilnapkin,

Thanks for the question and welcome to our community!

Hypercharge is a Wave-Based Shooter with Defense Building Mechanics. It’s similar to a Horde mode, with the major difference being there’s a lot more strategy involved.

Right now, the game doesn’t have that Campaign feel, but our next update changes this. We’re putting a lot of focus on the lore/story. What this means is, when you complete a level, you’ll learn more about the world of Hypercharge, including its antagonists, protagonists, and the reason for your objectives. There will be a big sense of progression.

I hope I have answered your question. If you’d like to know anything else, please let me know. Oh, and don’t forget, there is a Demo on our store page that you are welcome to try. :)

All the best,
Joe

I think it is best described as co-op objective based defensive in waves. Think horde mode but with a pause between waves to build walls, traps, turrets and weapon upgrades. You defend “towers” called Hypercores. Depending on the difficulty, your enemies and rounds differ. I like it a lot. However there is also a death match mode and a plague mode as well as party modes like tank games and air hockey.

Can we have a story campaign? Given the premise, it should be fairly easy to make one and the lack of a campaign is the only reason I haven't bought this for my brothers yet. I think a lot of other people probably feel the same way.

Hi Fomin,

We are adding a campaign to the current PvE mode. It will explore much of the story/lore behind Hypercharge as well as add objectives to complete in buildmode. :) More information about it all, soon.

Best,
Joe

Will you be able to co-op the campaign?

Good question! A coop campaign can make the difference between a good game and a great game.

Will the campaign be available in co-op as well?

So far the announcements say single-player but I agree that campaign coop would be a great addition especially since this is already a multiplayer-focused game anyway.

Try to imagine Borderlands without campaign coop. It would be almost nothing compared to what it is.
