Cooperative Play?

Post by MikeAP »

Is really cooperative, or is that hidden language for 2v2 pvp? For me, cooperative means multiple players against the AI.

What will the coop missions be like? Similar to MP scenarios, or campaign missions with objectives?

Coop play is 2 players verses the AI. They will tend to be more like the SP missions in layout and design - we are not sure yet of all the details of the Coop missions that will be included.

That said, the mechanics of coop lead me to expect that it will be a popular area for modders :).

I'm glad you guys finally realized that people enjoy playing games with their friends. There seems to be a stigma against cooperative play for traditional wargamers. I'm not sure why.....

It's been on our wishlist for ages (we loved the coop mode in Emperor: Battle for Dune when we made it!) but it just never made it to the top until we rebooted the task list for BA2 :)
