Just wondering if anyone knows if there is going to be Co Op support for the campaign.

There wont, but we can always hope it so.

There are a few options being thrown around as to how it would be made into a reality. But there's nothing like it about to arrive, a the devs are too busy working on what they have now.

Maybe the modders could add something like this? I mean, there was some pretty heavily changed mods for the first game, hopefully its possible. I'd love to play this with my friend who also loves M&B

It' can't be to far off. They have Single player, They have' multiplayer, its only a a stone throw away. With the modders out there, I'm sure that'll help as well, be like throwing a rock down a cliff, Mucho distance for minimal effort. Plus not nearly enough games have decent co-op, Quite depressing for me and my roomie.

Well, the one closest to this right now is the Invasion Mod.

My friend hosts a server, and the two of us fight together against unrelenting waves of enemies. There's also a server that can have up to 64 players defending against the invaders. It's real cool, and I'm sure something like this could be done to make a campaign of some sorts.

The most plausible way of getting a MP campaign in my opinion would be to have one person host a campaign, and the other player(s) join it and fight either as companions, or as random soldiers in the ranks. That way no character importing or other stuff would be necessary, and we'd still be able to have a good time with our lads.

Best would of course we having seperate parties and a constant living world, but that's a long way away.

It would be amazing, I mean if every lord in Calradia was controlled by a human player who can level up, create a party, siege castles etc we would have a full living world.

You could have it so when you have to stop playing your lord, party, stats, denars, etc are saved and you disappear from the map and what instantly reappears in your place is another players previously saved lord and party waiting to play or an AI lord if noone is waiting.

That way the server would stay alive at all times.

How did you manage to host and join a non-dedicated server?
Me and some friends tried hosting but none of us could see the others servers on the list.

Don't look forward to things that they're not telling you will be in the game. Honestly. Do a little research and you can quickly find out it's not in there. It's not a "shame" it's just a decision they made. Is it also a shame that the game doesnt come with a free ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ robot?

Actually, the reason they didn't attempt a co-op campaign was the due to the sheer complexity of it. Maybe in the future they could, but personally I don't think it will happen.

This is actually the type of mp many of my friends who have this game and myself wanted, the version they have is fun and all, but the true game is the combination of conquest,etc not just the combat. Hope they do so!

NOTE: I should add (if dev reads) that you have , HAVE to have a save feature, needless to say we won't be able to do it in one sitting, it would be an on going mp for months to come, that would be awsome :)
