11/8/2022 0 Comments Dead island 2 split screen![]() ![]() This is the only Halo game to not have split-screen and Microsoft’s Phil Spencer’s explanation was less than ideal by him basically saying “People tend to play co-op game across Xbox live anyway”. What Keith should have said was “Yes! you imbecile”, instead his answer was a disappointing “no”. So when 343 Industries got round to making Halo 5 when someone said “Keith, shall we put the 2 player split-screen in the game”. ![]() Every Halo game also has local 2 player split-screen. This is a bit of sad one really and stupid now that I think about because every Halo game has online co-op, whether it’s campaign or firefight. In the alternate reality where Payday released with local 4 player multiplayer. In the end, gaming is about having fun and that’s exactly what you’d get if you had 4 friends round your house with pizza’s, beverages and Payday 2. If you’re like me and my even worse at games mates then that won’t happen but we probably laugh more. If you and your mates are good at the game then you can complete levels without even raising an alarm. A game where you complete multiple different heists with an emphasis on stealth for money (in-game) and experience bonuses. Payday is about teamwork, communication and fat stacks of cash. ![]() I understand that 4 player split-screen might not be optimal but It would be better than playing on your own. ![]() It’s a similar story to Wildlands with Payday 2, it’s only really enjoyable in multiplayer, preferably in a group of 4 as players can do things that the AI can’t. However, it turn’s out that it’s going to be a competitive multiplayer mode…why? DEAD ISLAND 2 SPLIT SCREEN UPDATEWhen I heard there would be an update with a new feature added I thought “good job guys” As I assumed (for some reason) that it would be Split-screen. Which is why split-screen should have been essential, I’d rather team up with friends and go explore the beautiful Bolivian setting then couch co-op it up in FIFA or CoD. I’m still not sure if its the game and it’s mechanics that make it more interesting in co-op or if it’s you and buddy doing ridiculous things, probably the latter. Amazingly it’s infinitely more fun when you and buddy team up to take down the drug cartel. Playing the game by yourself can end up being a chore. Have a map filled with very similar distraction all the through the game. The shooting and tactical play can be fun but it reeks of that old and tired Ubisoft formula. The Tom Clancy game which had it’s worldwide release back in March is indeed a fun game, as long as you play it cooperatively. So why not have the split-screen feature as well to make sure that cooperative play is available at all times. It’ll be single player or online co-op which is odd because it’s clear that the game has been developed with co-op being the main feature. This game just scream’s couch co-op but unfortunately, it’s not going to have it. Your character’s skills can also be customized by upgrading and leveling up. The game also has a class system with each class having different abilities. While at night defending it from waves of enemies for 14 days, hence the name Fortnite. An online co-op survival game with creative building which see’s players work together to explore and scavenge for resources to build up their fort during the day. Tim Sweeney, the founder of Epic Games, described this game as “Minecraft meets Left 4 Dead”. I am cheating a tiny bit with this first entry as it isn’t even out yet but it’s out in early access form on the 25th of July which isn’t too far away. Which is such a shame because some games could really benefit from having what is now an underrated and overlooked feature. Nowadays when a game has co-op it tends to be online co-op only. I mean I don’t, I haven’t got any friends but I’m sure you do and remember it fondly. Plug in another controller and enjoy some couch co-op romps on games like Timesplitters, Champions: Return To Arms, Mario Kart, and Crash Bash. Remember the days when you could go to friends house and boot up the PS1, PS2, Gamecube etc. ![]()
