TimeSplitters 2 Co-op Story Mode Netplay 60fps
youtu.be
Best viewed in 60 fps. I'm player 1 and Mark is player 2. A code was used to correct the aiming system and this makes the game easier. Timestamps are below.O...

(the app is forcing me to put a link so I put Timesplitters 2 gameplay cuz this is mostly a text post)

Hi everyone! I’ve been feeling frustration about games lately, remembering experiences I had as a kid playing co-op story games with my friends, like Timesplitters and Destroy All Humans, etc.

Modern multiplayer games sometimes have some co-op elements, but many of them are party games like Human Fall Flat or Among Us, or big Battle Royales or Multiplayer shooters. The co-op ones seem to only be survival games like The Forest.

I’m always looking for good co-op experiences to play with my friends, but it’s hard to find what I am looking for. I recently played It Takes Two with my partner and that was so wonderful.

Does anyone know any games like what I am looking for? It seems these kinds of games are so few and far between, sadly.

    Here are some rough categories and hours included.

    Builder / Survival

    Sounded like you were not that interested in this genre but they can be fun co-op experiences.

    • Terraria (850 hours) - Two of my friends I have done two clean slate full play-throughs of this game.
    • Core Keeper (77 hours) - Also played through the content of this game with same 2 friends.
    • Valheim (344 hours) - Did a co-op play through with a friend on this one. Might do it again with Mistlands or with other updates.

    Boss Encounters / Building

    • V Rising (79 hours)

    Played through V Rising with a friend, co-op pve, and it was a blast. We really enjoyed the different boss battles. We are going to revisit this one soon as they dropped / are dropping new content.

    Exploration / Melee Combat / Story

    • Dying Light 2 (87 hours)

    Enjoyed playing Dying Light 2 with a friend, playing the game turned out to a mix of playing solo and playing co-op.

    Platformer

    • Trine

    Fox mentioned this and I’ll add it as well. Fun co-op platformer with some fun story telling aspects.

    MMO

    • Guildwars 2

    Fox also mentioned GW2 in the thread. There is a ridiculous amount of content in this game with no subscription required. Combat feedback/force has always felt weak imo but there is a massive world to explore and jumpy puzzles if you are into that (love them).

    More story focused co-op

    Also watching this thread as I’m curious what shows up. I haven’t played many games in this area on PC.

      Can you expand about V Rising for Diablo and Stardew valley fans? Somehow I’m still on fence but sounds like great combo!
