That's too bad. I hope they add Escalation at least. That was somewhat co-op and it was fun too.

Well to be honest, I'm not going to miss co-op that much. I would say only 2 percent of my total WFC experience was co-op, 5% escalation, 7% solo campaign, while the other 86 percent was all multiplayer. Yeah co-op was alright but if I had to choose between High Moon matching (or even better, topping) their 2010 multiplayer or keeping co-op, I'll live without conquering/suriving Cybertron with a buddy.

Nice statistics you pulled from your ass there. A bit specific eh? Did you record all your time played.

Well, I just saw the gameplay on GameTrailers TV, and it looked like there was no co-op, and sadly this confirms it. I would say that this went from a must buy on launch to waiting til it's cheap.

Co-op was a lot of fun in War for Cybertron, and I feel like this is a major step back.

I personally loved co-op. It was a really cool feature, running around with a friend and joyously smashing enemies together.

This guy has a real stick up his. Posting on every single thread currently on the game just to bash others? I wish there was a global "ignore user" option.

Damn, was hoping for a co-op campaign to play with my nephew.

Hopefully this means they are going for a more story driven campaign, since TBH the story was pretty thin in WFC IMO.

By thin I mean lacking in emotion and it wasnt really gripping making you feel the need to continue to see what happens next.

me too. Jesus.

I swear i saw a video showing the multiplayer campaign, are you sure?

[Kazuma Prime]

As much as some people might miss it, I say that's fine. I never co-op campaigned except to get the two achievements tied to the co-op. Escalation and multiplayer will more than pick up for the slack. Lets be honest, whenever you played with someone it was most likely 3/4 MP, 1/4 escalation (note this applies to the general community, not those who REALLY enjoyed escalation).

you're right. there is co-op. i watched the video too. cant remember where i saw it though..

[CHIRUNO99]

I loved the Co-op in WFC and it's a shame to hear that there isn't any this time around.

[T3hpwner54]

No co-op will mean it will be kinda easy to me. Dear god they'd best keep escalation.

Sure thing.
Escalation was kinda hard for me, but tons of fun.
Never got to wave 15, though. That´s because I´ve never had a partner to play with.

[Trewman]

dude just say the word! i joined the WFC party late and all the cute girls had left lol so i cant wait to get on this, and happy to join up with anyone!

but also, im sure that there will be tons of people ready to play when its launched

[WEBHEAD 7]

yeh i'll be down for lots of escalation,, especially now that there's achievements for making it past wave 15 on multiple maps..
no campaign co-op isn't the best news, but that doesn't break the game for me

[xi ShadowWolf x]

What? Awww.

[Kunduz]

getting more and more disappointed

[beli2229]

NO why? I had friends wanting to do coop

[ajennice]

I'd say it's too short for co-op. mean it's only about 4-5 hrs long ( on normal and searching for collectables). If it were co-op you'd go through it in about 3 1/2 hrs.

Source? Not being a prat, just haven't heard any announcement on how long the game is yet. TBH have been avoiding anything about the game other than the Grimlock trailers Made up my mind at annoucement day I was playing it, didn't need to be sold on the game.

All this DLC bs everyone is bitching about is one thing, and I honestly don't care. But THIS.... a super short campaign is something that would have me hold onto my dollars until a price drop. Was planning on picking it up payday, but if it's that short I'll wait until it's cheaper.

Still have a stack of last years fall releases to get through.

[Akai Shuichi]

4-5 hours if you play on the easiest difficulty I'm assuming, but from the reviews posted so far it says its around 10-11 hours.

and I for one am loving it so far without the coop campaign, it seems if its designed for 1 person, and not 2, that it flows much much better.

[DreddPirate Rob]

Out of all the things in the game this is what has bummed me the most. Hopefully if we get a 3rd game they'll bring it back.
