will there be local co op?

[ynjo]

kind of important for me i love to play with friends on the same couch so kind of a deal breaker if nothing local will be available

There is not, but you can play with a total of 4 players in online co-op.

there is probably a reason, such as it can be played on any kind of device or level of PC power within reason. and every home has a network. if it dont then how are they gonna get the game? a physical copy? who does that archaic practice anymore?

if there was a phone game version of this that would be great for online multiplayer only and looking at the specs needed to run this game i can easily make 4player splitscreen and im guessing they're not doing it is coz of sales, gamers would need to buy it multiple times instead of one copy only.

digital games gets lost coz u dont really own them, that already happened on some games and im surprised you dont know that when you talked about archaic stuff XD

lets say i bought a physical copy of a game and it can be played offline/online, but the recent patch made it unplayable and buggy. so how do i play that game?

i would uninstall the update and load the physical copy of the game only without updating it

so if that happens on digital game you cant do what a physical copy of the game can do lol

if a dev/publishers decides to remove a game from the store you cant do anything about it, whats worst than that is if it isnt installed on your library and they dont let you download it again lol

oh and if you got hacked and cant get your account back, where are your digital games now? lol

w/e old man. people say the same thing about DRM, and there was only one known instance where DRM locked people out of their game. and that included BOTH digital and physical copies of the game. effectively making them fancy coasters.

end of the day, if you want a feature included thats not going to be, learn how to mod.

I was really looking forward to playing this game in local coop which I was sure would be possible since the Escapists does it as well...

Guess I was wrong

[Talos91]

Hellpoint is an unity game and has splitscreen no reason for this game to not include it.

[Scotvince]

Local coop would be great !

No modding support (and AFAIK the game is run through IL2CPP, which improves performance but makes it impossible to use regular Unity modding).

Incidentally, this is part of the reason I haven't purchased the game yet. I love the concept, the use of monkey mimicking the player is quite innovative and looks fun... but without modding support the only ones that can add content and tweak the game are the original devs, and I'm not yet sure they will add enough content to make the game worth the asking price.

I am not old at 33, and I happen to agree with him. I always get physical when I can. Unfortunately that is rare for PC these days. Developers got greedy, and no longer support LAN or split screen very often. There is still a few good developers that do support that stuff, but it is rare and is mostly on consoles(Nintendo has a lot of great couch coop games for instance).

Well, maybe you should play this game on Apple Arcade ? Six people in your family could play together and all the games on Apple Arcade for $5

macOS / tvOS / iPadOS / iOS , play on any device you want with your friends and family

They even updated tvOS & iOS to support amazon Luna / ps5 controller already ( I prefer the Xbox elite 2 still )

I currently play with my girlfriend with two Apple TV on tvOS on the big tv, this is the first game we able to dedicate and addict together like that

Well, if it’ has to “worth “ the price
maybe you should play this game on Apple Arcade ?

Six people in your apple family could play together and all the games on Apple Arcade for just $5 ...

that’s like 0.8 a month for each of you

Buy two Apple TV to play Apple Arcade on it with elite 2 controller or amazon Luna controller , there you go a cheap and nice multimedia gaming console

( however there will be random crash when I tried to play my pure jazz playlist with Apple Music running in the background, I think A10 x apple silicon couldn’t handle running this game + Apple Music for a long period of time )

Apple needs to release a new Apple TV running A14X silicon !!!

That would require owning two TV's, and the controllers, and the $200 a piece for the device lol. Fairly pricey unless you already have both TV's, and even with them your looking at over $500 for the controllers and two Apple TV devices. I would rather just build another cheap PC for the same price to play. This game wouldn't require anything fancy, and you would have access to Steam and/or Game Pass along with everything else a PC can do.
