Achievements and Coop?

Will be added?

[Raf]

Definitely, about the achievements we may have them soon, maybe the next update (April) or May.
Coop is a bit more complicated. A local, shared screen coop might be possible in the current game architecture, but for an online peer 2 peer connection multiplayer we'll have to wait for version 2.0 because a whole new code structure is needed.

I'm eager to play co-op too, so I'll do my best to make it work as soon as we get all the maps and enemies done :)

Thanks for the feedback!

I think local coop will be fine :D

[DeLastOne]

local split screen coop should be a must :()

[Katana Puffin]

it deserve a coop like nex machina

[Deus0Ex0Machine]

it would be great to add multiplayer where u and other mechs explore some map and shoot enemies that go from all sides)

[Raf]

We are working on a multiplayer version, might even be ready sooner than I thought... lots of new features are coming!

[Katana Puffin]

any news on coop?

[Raf]

Hey Katana Puffin, yes, unfortunately due to many reasons, it's not going to be possible to implement any multiplayer in this version of Armed.

As we have discussed it in previous posts and announcements, the game was originally going to be much simpler, with no intention to add a multiplayer mode. Turns out, the code structure for a singleplayer is very different from a multiplayer one and our attempts to make a workaround later in development didn't go as well as we thought.

For a proper multiplayer and coop modes, we need to rewrite the whole code, and in fact we did a few basic prototypes. It is our plan to work on a version 2 of this game, with a completely new and optimized structure ready for multiplayer versus and coop battles, as well as many other features.

Hello Raf, if you & your team are really working on a mp mode & coop mode, then I would like to suggest that atleast the coop mode has no friendly fire-feature please.

[Raf]

hey D1GP Specialist, there's a new multiplayer sequel in pre-production, but can't yet give you a release date. But certainly will have a co-op with many gameplay customizations.

Thank you so much for your reply, Raf.

I really appreciate your complete work with Armed to the Gears.

It's really a stunning game .

[Raf]

thanks man!

[Ralk]

Online coop would be amazing for this game :)

Any updates on the sequel by chance?
Definite +1 on the multiplayer.
