Re: Online Co-op

i think if its online its diff cuz he said they can run through your game reaking havoc so they can probably run away

Re: Online Co-op

I'm fairly sure online co-op will be similar to that of Grand Theft Auto. Which means both players should be able to go wherever they please. I believe it's only couch co-op that you have to stay in the same area.



Then again I could be wrong. :ninja:

Re: Online Co-op

it would be alot better if you can go of eachothers screen. but im gunna only invite people i can trust. Dont want them messing your game up.

I think that the camera stays focused on the owner of the world but that doesn't prevent the guest from wandering off. I thought I also heard that you can summon them back if they've gone too far.

Agreeing with Gortex, the video I have seen shows that when "couch co oping" you have to stay on the same screen with the camera following the host, the one whos world it is. I think that the co op over xbox live would be similar to the GTA, but obviously only one other person in your world. And yes, you must be careful who you invite into your world!

I'd bet money that you'd be able to go anywhere you wish. Personally, as much as I'm really looking forward to playing Fable 2 over Xbox LIVE, I still want to be able to go off and do my own thing (maybe even murder my buddy's family while he's busy elsewhere...)

Wouldnt be much different than the couch co-op if you were restricted to one screen. Kind of takes away the point of having an online mode at all, as people who play online usually dont like Split screen or screen sharing. Just means you can play with the less sociable majority who cant be bothered to come around your house and see you or cant due to an ocean being in the way (lazy so and so's) .

Couch Co-op is the Fable 2 version of split screen.

Couch Co-op is the Fable 2 version of split screen.

I wouldn't really call it split screen, as there's no splitting the screen, it's more screen sharing, like GTA when you play from the same console

Thats what i meant by 'The Fable 2 Version' and not saying Couch Co-op IS Spilt Screen.

Re: Online Co-op

in a number of ways, i kinda hope that your henchmen CANT go anywhere they please. lol cuz lets be honist: if they can do whatever they want, then the user would lose faith in co-op, and PM wouldnt appreciate that very much.
ill say that perhaps there is no lobby with several games for you to join, all games could very well be private and you only play with your friends... kind of limiting, but then again, we DO have a very nice community setup here

Re: Online Co-op

I think they might make it so they carnt go out of the region the main player is in. Tht would be good.

however fable 2 co-op is set up , its still gunna be bloody amazing !

I didn't think the henchman could leave the main player?

Re: Online Co-op

couch co op is NOT split screen. this i know for sure. no idea about online. i dont think they have even shown online play, they only said it was possible. interesting......

wait, i have seen one online co op video, but they where on the same screen. i think all co op is shared screen. guess we will just have to wait and see.
