is there a 3 or 4 player co-op mode?

Never played Halo before.

In CE and H2, Campaign co-op is 2 players only. In H3, ODST, Reach, and H4, Campaign co-op is up to 4 players. However, please note that this collection of games does not support split screen, so if you want to play co-op with people they need to all be playing on their own devices with their own copy of the game. Furthermore, Campaign co-op only works if everyone is playing on PC, or if everyone is playing on Console. There is no crossplay Campaign co-op option (you can't play on a PC while your partner plays on a Console).

However, there is a mod to allow for local split screen co-op, but it requires you to basically run the game twice, so don't attempt this if your PC can't handle the load.

If you're referring to Multiplayer co-op, then you can indeed play with 4 (or more) of your friends in the same group for all of the games. However, like with Campaign, split screen is not an option, so everyone must be using their own device and their own copy of the game. Unlike Campaign however, crossplay Multiplayer co-op does work.

There's also this mod to play local co-op, but you can't play online with it.

Is it actually possible to play Online-Multiplayer via searching for other players to continue the campaign or do we need to be friends ?

halo is known for the best co op experiences in fps games.

As of Season 7 you must now be Xbox Live friends with someone who you want to play with. This is because in order to join another player's lobby you must now be friends with either the host or someone in the room (I'm not 100% sure which).

Note that "following" =/= "friend".

When playing with someone else in campaign online you need to have low latency in order for the off-host players to have low input delay.

Thanks for the detailed answer! Sad though, that i can't just randomly join anyone :/. I don't want to do the campaign alone. So, i might find someone to do so together :)
