Coop expeditions?

[NordBlade]

I was wondering if the expeditions were solo only.

[paul32]

No.
You can go on an expedition and shot a signal and anybody can join with you :D

[Suzaku]

They can be coop as well.

[San-Kyu]

I believe you can SOS that provided you are in an online room. With no real objectives aside from gathering or just casually murdering all the wildlife you may find it a bit difficult to coordinate any team effort with randoms in this instance though. Especially with automatic increased difficulty due to multiplayer.

I've been trying to do this and its a real pain in the Butt, its very very poorly implemented by Capcom.

If you start an online expedition and send up an SOS ANYONE can join. not good if you want to do coop with friends, along with the SOS not always showing.

There is suppose to be a way of running a coop quest and just at the point where the quest objective is completed you should be able to select to spawn at camp instead of back at Astera. Console players just use the right joystick down, but on a keyboard and mouse there doesn't seem to be that option. Does anyone please know how to get this alternative spawn location up for after the coop quest completes?

I still use a controller on PC so I'm not sure but there are post hunt options for return to camp. If everyone picks that they will be in a co-op expedition.

You hit C to change between going to camp, headquarters or the gathering hall.
It should be telling you right on screen.

If you want to play with friends, just join up before going out. That way you don't have to rely on an SOS.

But anyway, most of my multiplayer time has probably been doing expeditions. They're just so much fun. Running around gathering, fishing, catching critters, and then randomly beating up on whatever decides to wander through. Especially without worrying about carting. Just having fun, practicing and chatting with folks.

fyi, the defaut is set to continue and return to camp,
the 2nd, is back to base but disband.
3rd, return to gethering hub

[Event Horizon]

tried the 'c' button and nothing happened. as we have only recently started the game i am now thinking that the option to appear at the camp hasn't been unlocked yet. It may come when we complete the quest for securing the camp (currently just lvl 2)
i'll let you guys know, thanks for the help.

[EvilMonk]

you can also just do a quick missions in the area you want to do an expedition and then choose "return to camp" so you and your friend will stay in the area and no one else will join (only if you put out a sos)

[Malice]

I don't believe that returning to camp is an option during Assignments. Try it again after completing an Investigation or Optional quest.
