Mate I have only a few words.HyenaThePirate said:I don't know WHY developers REFUSE, I mean they literally kick and SCREAM against putting full real coop into games. There is a LARGE, HUGE segment of the gaming population that enjoy playing with their friends. There is NOTHING cooler than going through a game with your buddies, going all the way back to CONTRA and Mario brothers. Look, I know some people would rather keep their single player single, and that's fine, since it's an OPTION for them they have no complaints. But games like Call of Duty... why is there no drop in online coop for the campaign? I just don't get it. Halo didn't have a problem doing it... nobody whined about how a "second master chief" RUINED the experience.
Even worse a culprit is Traveller's tales, whom I have decided to NEVER buy another game from them again until they put in ONLINE coop. The Lego games are fantastic fun, especially with a friend, in fact in some cases the games seemed DESIGNED with coop fun in mind... only its same couch coop... NO ONLINE coop. That's unacceptable in today's world.
TO me, not including COOP in a game is the same as how developers balked at MULTIPLAYER for so long until they finally realized that gamers were out and out ignoring games that DIDNT have a multiplayer component. Even RPGS are starting to have coop and multiplayer.
Honestly, I'm going to start a boycott. Games without COOP will now be removed from my "must have" list. Games with coop, even if its poorly implemented will get my dollars, if for nothing else to show a willingness to support developers that at least attempt to do things that the gamers want.
YOU ARE FUCKING RIGHT!
Yup,
