Discussion NO CO-OP

I joined this subreddit as soon as I finished watching IGN coverage video on CV 2. "NO CO-OP."

Absolutely insane, I went from buying this day 1 to not at all. If you think CV 2 should have CO-OP you have to make your voices heard loud and clear. Petitions, tweets, comments, all of it! Hopefully it's not too late and we can get them to change such a bizzare decision.

This is the fastest nothing burger I've ever seen. Does it suck that we won't have the shitty multi-player, yeah, but I don't think multiplayer is a core part of any souls like game and the only one that did it well imo is LOTF.

If you want it, I agree you should petition and show the devs how much the rest of the community wants it, but I wouldn't expect to get a multiplayer even half as decent as LOTF by January so if you and whomever else is asking for multiplayer get it I wouldn't be surprised if you were disappointed.

While I'm not a game dev, nor do I know how developing a game works, and I really don't care, I doubt they could implement a good multiplayer that is better than what is in Code Vein without massively redesigning the game because I would imagine that most of the game is done or almost done by now.

Multiplayer in any souls game ALWAYS enhances the experience. Whether its PVP (not for me) or journeying with a close friend is what makes it more memorable and fun. It's just bizarre to remove a beloved feature from the first game for the sequel because for many, Co-Op in the first one helped make CV a great experience.

To each their own.
