    There's no point even bothering with multiplayer with the likes of COD and Battlefield around.

Same for simple things like chatting with the villains or the characters. In previous games, we've been the "saviour" and when coop was around, Hurk was just the deranged dude helping you. In terms of scenario, it's extremely hard to imagine sequences where 2 players could be in. Like when we're stunned from behind (so do it for both players?), receiving a bullet stopped by a lighter (oooh! lucky are we!) or other big blocbkuster moments. It would need a bunch of dedicated cinematics, fights and all for that, while only a part of the gamers would do the campaign in coop.

    Yes, this is what I was getting at being the challenges of campaign coop but never felt the motivation to actually type out. well put angstik

    Well FC has something those games don't, the map editor. So putting that front & center, while it wouldn't over take those games by any stretch of the imagination, could carve out a niche for a specific crowd whose desire for such features are not met by any other game...

    10 bucks say there will be no multiplayer, only coop, and map editor will be non-existent. Just my gut feeling.

    The map editor in FC2 was pretty solid, but I barely touched it in FC3

    Primal didn't even have coop, to get even that would be a blessing.....
