How many players for CO-OP?

Title says it all.
Sorry if I have missed this in the description somewhere, but was just wondering how many players will be able to join? I've got 3 other mates that would be interested in the game and would be awesome for a 4 player Co-op.

Yeah, it'd be a huge shame if I could only play with 1 other friend. I understand if that's how they decided to balance the game (might be too easy with a whole gang of people), but it'd be fun to play with a small group of people.

i think i remember hearing is 2 player co op im not 100% but I also agree the game would end up way too easy with more than that

Devs, Please do this in a future update:

*Allow more players to join (max of 4 would be fine i guess)
*Up the enemy health significantly per extra person that joins

Problem solved and your game is 1000% more fun. Also currently playing it and i love the game to death already, that's why i say this d;
I have about 5 friends that want to get this game, but won't because it's only 2 player. You're missing out on money guys!

Please up it to 4 yeah. Since the scaling already exists going from 1 to 2 players it should not be too difficult. Everybody wins. People who want to strictly duo in co-op can do that, groups can play 4p or 8p and company gets more revenue. For now missed profits.

I think the drop system works fine. Ideally the party leader should be the main one getting drops and then distributing extra good like weps and whatnot to your fellow party members just like a single player RPG if the party members were NPC's. If you want to get double the loot, just switch hosts and go do whatever you did on your friend's game, also on your game, then you both benefit.
