Is SP Co-op possible?

[Mr.Gepardas]

What do you think is there a possibility that R* would add co-op, because after all we have 3 protagonists?

I, somehow imagine that we could have drop in, drop out co-op in which your 2 friends could join you at any time (maybe except some missions that only involve one or two protagonist).

If it would be in a DLC then, I imagine that we would have completely different campaign for the co-op (Maybe even a spin off, like RDR Undead Nightmare)

What are your thoughts on this?

I seem to be one of the few who remissness about the time when mulitplayer meant split-screen, sh*t talking, shoulder punching, view blocking, screen looking, name calling fun with friends and siblings. Don't get me wrong, I love online mulitplayer but damn, i miss the sh*t out of S/S co-op and multiplayer. That's the kind of SP co-op that I wish was possible

[poklane]

Damn that would be tits.

[G D]

Null vote.

where's the option of "Maybe"?

how the f*ck should i know?

 

 

OT: I think it's in, Remember what R* said:

".....keep pretty much the entire game a screct...."

This is the bummer about the 'integrated' story thing. If we had had 3 separate storylines, online co-op would have been possible

 

For example,

I'm playing through Michael's story, one friend is playing through Franklin's, and another is playing Trevors. They're all happening at the same time, on the same map, but on separate screens separate consoles. Each player would have their own missions. If Friend A and B are playing a mission that doesn't involve Me, I can show up while they are playing through their objective and play with them, or just leave them be and f*ck around in a different area.

 

In missions where 2 or more characters are required, each character/player would have had to finish their story up to the point where said mission takes place. If they haven't done so, the mission won't appear on the map. To activate, one person activates it, and the others either confirm or deny it.

 

There are flaws with this, in the sense that you wouldn't be able to progress the story solo. You'd have to start a new save, and play offline.

 

I kind of hope that this is the way the co-op is... and the character switching is just the solo/offline playstyle. My mind would probably explode if this was the case though.

[Red Hat]

No, but I wish they would add it.

[eddshomie]

having 2-3 person co-op would be pretty cool

[Poole1994]

They've surprised us with the properties, they can surprise us again, all though if they do add it, my guess it will not be part of the storyline at all. would like them to add it though.

Did Rockstar not say in a recent interview that there is NO Co-Op?

Doesn't that answer the question???

 

But hey.. They also hinted that you can no longer buy properties or business.... and guess what, You Can!

I keep seeing that kind of reply over and over again, but I can't remember when did they actually say that.

It was a while ago.. GI preview I think? They asked Rockstar and Rockstar said No. Its 1.30am, I can't be bothered looking it up right now.

There will be a "vibrant and fun" economy, but you won't be able to buy property.

Single player co-op is pretty much like non-alcoholic alcohol...

Oh, thanks. I wonder if they really delayed the game to include this. I highly doubt though.

[Jesus Piece]

I don't think so. With the way the single-player is set up I'm not sure co-op makes sense. It's not like Gears of War where you always have AI buddies following you. There are solo missions for each character and ambient side missions when you're out exploring the world.

 

Which is a good thing I think. No need to alter one of the last great single-player series for co-op. I'm sure multiplayer will have some sort of co-op heist game mode.

[Raynos]

Yeah, I "think" they delayed the game for their original reason, bug fixing and polish.

 

However, Seeing the disappointment from Fans and preview sites, they probably thought... heck! Why not, lets add some assets that players can buy.

Probably took them a few days (if even that) to program it in.

 

like they say, Until the game goes GOLD, anything is possible.

[.JimmyHopkins.]

Don't get me wrong, that's just my opinion ,but i don't think they will ever do that in a GTA game....they have multiplayer,where in GTA V im almost sure there will be a mode where they all plan a heist mission and you have to do it.

The point is if it really implemented into the game as needed.

It's easy for safehouses, but if we are talking about businesses it should have its own set of missions, which shouldn't be out of main missions' line, otherwise we'll just get some static interiors with a "$" mark somewhere nearby.

Would be nice for some old fashion split-screen co-op, seeing that I can't play online with my internet. But that's not going to happen.
