Worth for COOP?

[Ravagexe]

I need some Warriors experience to play with my friend, pretty much all Warriors title are locked up for local couch-coop for some reason.

Do you think this would be fun? From what I get the game seems like a cash grab built on microtransactions but still it can be fun for a bit.

Samurai Warriors 5 has online coop.

My brother and I co-op this game and its pretty cool to be able to be on opposite sides of the map and able to push the frontline. We haven't played in the past 2 months however.

We experienced no lag spikes and only observed rubberbanding if I sprinted on my horse with max speed. I believe cutscenes will teleport players to where the cutscene occurred.

It isn't so much that this game was a crashgrab as much as it was them (KOEI) trying something completely out of their comfort zone. Both in systems (open world vs self-contained maps/corridors for example) and in sales (see PC cluster-F vs PS4 full package). I cannot speak on behalf of them but the business model for PC looked like it was meant to be almost like a MOBA and have weekly rotations of characters available to play for free so customers could then purchase those character stories individually instead of forking a full $60. Which when taken into consideration how large of a departure this entry was from the last 7 games and their X-Treme/Empire editions, it was a very safe way to allow customers to test the waters. It just was done very poorly since there is no weekly warrior rotation at all and new players have no idea who to spend those free 3 officer tickets on. And anyone unfamiliar with the story could get a lemon in terms of campaign length due to characters dying as the story unfolds.

A lot went wrong for DW9. I hope they learned all the right things and DW10 is open world again but this time with more thought and care put into it. It would be a shame to fall back to what is safe and stale (self-contained maps/corridors) just because they missed the mark once when trying something new.

At the very least if you do consider this for a co-op game, grab the Complete edition when it goes on sale for $40 (which it is right now) and then you'll have all you need.

Definitely no for me. I bought it and i can say when i tried to play with my friend and the game have so many bugs. Mission bugs, conection bugs and lazy gameplay. Sadly i wish this game to be good, but it isn't. I'll play more in the future, but i known that will not be a good experience

DW9 is a lot better when playing with a friend, BUT from what i've heard, online coop in this game sucks due to terrible sync. Local coop isn't perfect too, for example players may have different weather on their screen while they literally stand next to each other, but that's really the only problem i've encountered in local coop so far. Well, that and the fact that terrible graphics look even more terrible...

Yeah, sadly. I wish to play this game so hard, but it's just not good
