Is incredibly enjoyable. I really do have to tip my hat to Ubi for the implementation, it's (as far as I'm concerned) damn near perfect. The only thing wrong with it; the number of enemies stays the same. I think increasing the number of enemies by twofold to match the players would be over the top, especially in crowded situations such as several clips from the video below:
Viewer discretion advised: Strong language in parts.
But increasing the difficulty (even in realistic) or perhaps the number by 1.5x would add extra challenge and make it more enjoyable. The person I was playing with in the video is my step-son and he has only played for three days, so he's a total noob. Which made it entertaining. But I imagine if two people who understood the game did this, it would just be a walk in the park. I completed realistic difficulty solo as probably many people did; please Ubi, increase difficulty on co-op and add special ornaments as reward for those who do go through on co-op to add some incentive for people to do this!
