Hehe, when you're doing the Crucible just max out inferno or swords and stand on top of each other and chain cast them, or else have somebody on slow time duty keeping it up as much as they can and throwing out damage when they can and the other just running crazily around, its pretty fun. We managed to get ourselves knocked through the floor during the Troll on our first time as a duo in the Crucible, was one of those ho**** we borked the game moments lol.

I prefer Force Push, but yeah, I was cranking out Slow Time and Force Push the whole time. Blades probably does have more range. Raise dead is pretty good, too.

The only problem is that I've only played with my sister, and she sucks with guns and magic. Basically it's hack-hack-hack-hack-slash with her,

Nothing wrong with a bit of hack and slash tbh, I usually play that way but I think Fable 2 has made ranged/will methods more viable and right now I'm having loads of fun with those kind of combos- makes the game a bit more complex and technical when you don't just mash the heck out of the X button lol.

A nice rotation for it would probably be a force push to get a cluster of enemies off you, then pop a slow time, throw out a chaos to keep the enemies busy and then polish them off with something mental like inferno or vortex, pick off any stragglers with a few well place gun shots. Thats providing they make it past the first couple of spells lol.
:lol:

I REALLY cranked up force push, so I usually just blast them with that, then blow them away with my rifle. If they survive the force push, that is. A lot of the time they don't. I only use the ax if they're really close and powerful enough that a low-level force push doesn't knock them back much.

Headshots are so easy, too, that I have to make an effort to go for the groin or blowing the weapon from their hand. Which are both more fun tha decapitations, for some reason.

My only problem with spells is that it's just about impossible to change them on the move. So I usually end up using whatever I had locked in at the start of the fight, usually a bunch of force push and raise dead or time control.

I was going to buy a wireless connection on the 360 purely for fable 2 co-op mode, picked the device about to buy it a mate phone me " dude how was fable2"

"ok thanks bye"
and i put it down and walked out ill be testing out what he said in a internet cafe before i pay 80 quid for a account and 60 quid for a wirless connection thank ya very much :D
You don't need that damn thing. Just do it wired. Wireless technology is not reliable enough for online gaming of this size.

Wireless seems to work well enough for me. And anyway, you can't always get a wire to your 360.

Aye, tis a bit awkward to down rank and up rank spells on the go. I usually have slow time on level one, force push on two for quick pops of slow time and knock backs. Top rank is Inferno and next down is swords. Cant rightly remember what I have on the third tbh, could be vortex. Personally though I think the Will selection method of charging up things works alot better than the way it was in the original game. Btw, don't suppose you happen to have experienced a rank reset of your spells on your 'cast bar' cause this has happened to me a few times, just resets everything to slow time or one single spell on all ranks? Is this something I am doing by accident or is it a glitch /crai

Me and my cousin play co-op every time he comes over and we kick *** together. (I don't Xbox Live.)

I think I might know what you mean... do you mean when all your charge-up slots end up set to the same spell? Because that can happen if you tap "A" while you're in change spells. Sets them all to whatever spell you have selected, I think.

Or do you mean something else?
 
Re: Fable II Online Co-op

This might be a stupid question.
But is it possible to see the other people online rather than their orbs?

I don't have any friends with Fable 2, so I don't have the settings as friends only.

I just think the orbs are kinda annoying haha.
 
Re: Fable II Online Co-op

It was okay,reminded me of some of the ps2 baldur's gate dark alliance games.
although in fable 2 that kind of camera was the only real downer for me.
