Co-Op

[RabidBurp]

Never played the original. Is the co-op like a horde mode or is it co-op in the main adventure mode?

The co-op is like a horde mode. It's specifically being designed for this game; there was no multiplayer at all in the original games.

Just Horde and no Co-Op Story Mode? :(

[SlyAceZeta]

You can't have co-op story mode because the story areas are designed for one character ONLY at a time. If they made the story areas co-op, they would have completely changed the game, which is not what they wanted to do nor what the fans wanted them to do.

Ok, thanks. :(

Well, there is an easy fix for that: Allow the 2 player to control 2 of the same character.

Bang. No need to redesign everything.

But... but then what's the point? That's not fun at all. That's just saying "both of you go through the level at exactly the same time doing exactly the same thing". The only change is that one person gets to fight the robots while the other person... doesn't.

These levels were designed for one player -- there aren't any opportunities for co-op where one player helps another or vice versa. It's a singular, narrow experience that can't be expanded to multiple players. Yes, the entire levels would have to be redesigned to allow co-op.

It allow the players to collect thing faster, and explore different area (within the same loading zone).

I am not saying it's the ideal co-op game. I am only saying it's possible to do a quick co-op mode that I am sure a majority of people would be satisfied with only that.

eh, since no co-op story ill just emulate the game on the pcsx2 then, no need to buy it here. horde mode sounds rather interesting but eh imho not what i personally care for.

The original has no Story co-op.

have fun playing it alone then i guess. with ps2 graphics.

anyways, since horde seems to use different animations and a different playstyle, i kinda doubt they can work in story mode. The camera might even go to coordinations 0,0,0 because it isn't set for 2 players.

What the hell? Why is this thread still alive? It's been answered already damnit.
