Online CooP

[Hermann|♠|]

What are the Online CooP Features of this game ? I love BSG but the Store page does not really explain what types of coop gameplay there is to be had here.

Slitherine answered this question in another thread this way:

Only skirmish battles are available in multiplayer currently.

The way it works is that you each design half of the fleet with half of the points and then fight together against an AI opponent.

Is there any Progression In Multiplayer as we had in Battlefleet Gothic so we get to upgrade ships or gain experience or anything ?

[Slitherine_Iain]

No, currently multiplayer is like skirmish with one off battles but if people are interested we can explore that area.

The thing is me and probably alot of others look forward to games that give you a reason to relate to your let me call them assets. For instance i could easily see me and my brother playing the campaign together. My brother and i are suckers for turn based strategy. The thing is to get invested you have to have progression and a sense of urgency. I like that there is a Skirmish mode for short mindless battles. But for a longer investment there is nothing to do past playing the campaign maybe twice if there is multiple ways to go. For the Future a CooP campaign and/or a Headsup campaign would be cool. Other modes could be FTL like experience where you have a fleet that you need to get from point A to point B over x amount of jumps with variing difficulty levels collecting ressourses on the way and fighting off a persuing Cylon fleet much like in the TV show. That said sharing such an experience with a close friend or sibling could be a very bonding experience. just my 2 cents.

PS.: And before i forget it. Thanks for making this game in the first place.

The game looks awesome in its current state. Those co-op suggestions would be great.
I'm missing on it anyway because something about my wife being pregnant and me soon to being a parent apparently means I am not allowed to spend on games right now (heh, figures... 😁)

But I will gladly continue to follow this game and new developments coming (especially the co-op part) for the future.

Hope this game works as well as you hope folks, and keep up the good work

yeah 2 player campaign is what most people want. not to many games offer that

A full coop would make the game epic!!! I can think of 2 or 3 more sales that would generate just among my friends, even if I had to pay for a few of them. I look forward to see how this game developes.

yea it´s a shame really... many games have huge potential for things like that, but most just don´t go the whole way... :/

This would probably be an instant buy for a friend and I if there were campaign coop/story coop options implimented into the game.

Definitely! Please consider upgrading this function!

And btw you really should add some information at the shop-front page about the coop-part ingame. There are already some wondering themselves inside the discussion forums here about the coop, there are for sure some more that interested, but maybe holding back, because most times devs are holding back on a feature it's because it has its weaknesses. Honestly don't believe thats the case here, so you should also do advertising on the description page on that behallf too.

I remember having fun playing wargame: air land battle campaign co-op with friend. Such features are really really nice and It's a shame they are so few. Your game sounds pretty nice and It would have definitely be in my short list with a co-op campaign.

Is it just me or is the co-op insanly hard , This is from my experiance mind you your team mate and you only get 4000 to build your fleet and it seems the cylons get more than that to come up against you. Had 6 games so far we managed to take out 4 or 5 ships before were decimated, we used minataurs adamants and manticores , but it seemed the ammount of fighters and the ability to hack takes out the minataurs fast.

Id take hints if im doing somthing wrong , or i just wanted to find out any ones thoughts on how Co-op is now ?
