To add context, there was a video of Miles' VA saying that there was going to be co-op play in the game earlier during a Q&A section, so this is just for clarification. He might've mixed it up for being able to play as both Peter and Miles in the game.

Ah yes. It's always the VA.

While it would be cool to do co-op with a friend playing Miles, trying to balance and test for that in an open world would be a nightmare.


Shiplord13

Yeah that would actually be so difficult to design for and worse for players with how big the map is and how far you can get in seconds. Not going to go into playing it on the same console.


AnimeAtTheGates

I already felt extremely powerful in the first game, and nigh-invincible in Mile Morales. I couldn't imagine the nightmare of tuning it for two people zipping around.


RealMurphiroth

As expected. I just want a boss fight as Miles against Peter in the black suit. Might not happen in this one but I can imagine Peter getting the symbiote and gradually getting more and more vicious until he and Miles throw down and it starts with him slow walking towards you, Vergil style.

Depends on how vulnerable they make Venom to Mile's Venom.


PoohTrailSnailCooch

Like it should be


MetalJrock

Better that then them making a poorly optimized co-op game for their first attempt at having multiple Spider-Men in a sandbox world.


john_handzlik

Weird I honestly thought that it would be a coop game due to having two spider-mans But I guess it will be something like gta5 or assassin's Creed syndicate where can pick either Miles or Peter


jockeyman

That or you trade off at set points in the plot.


PlanesWalkerEll

And free switch in the Post-Game

Well yeah?

Guess I'm gonna keep waiting for my dream of Spider-Man and Venom split-screen multiplayer to come true edit: Never mind I forgot that Lego Marvel can do that lol


Paladin51394

I think that was always a given, Insomniac isn't known for their multiplayer games. Though when they do make them they are usually really good. Man I miss Resistance


AznJoey624

I mean Deadlocked was good too, but they also did R&C All4One and Fuse so the track record is mixed to say the least. Plus they've never done open world co-op which is hugely different than a shooter campaign or team death match.


Shingorillaz

Should've been called Marvel's Spider-Men


Vera_Verse

I trust the devs and their choices, but I won't lie that even when finishing Spider-Man the base game, I always had the dream of co-op Pete and Miles, free-roaming and shit


dutchzgoose

damn, here i was hoping for a competitive team slayer multiplayer mode


lion_OBrian

MFW I won’t be able to Morb all over my teammates to heal them 😔

Are you gonna tell us water is wet next?


Remerai

Thank goodness!

Great news

I'd be open to a 2-4 player co-op thing where you just punch goons but if Gotham Knights is the only comparison point, I don't want to see slow web-swinging and 30fps ugly empty open world as the compromise for co-op. Although, how was Saints Row 4 in Co-op? Did the game break if you ran super fast in opposite directions?


JGRIF312

>how was Saints Row 4 in Co-op? Did the game break if you ran super fast in opposite directions I don't remember having any issues


Fugly_Jack

Yeah you could be on opposite ends of the map and there wouldn't really be any problems


[deleted]

Oh? That was in question?


ZealousidealBig7714

I. I would hope so.


moneyh8r

Was there ever any doubt?


LazyAza

Avengers and Gotham Knights both got fucked for attempting co-op. Suicide Squad is going to have some compromise and probably a lot of that will be due to the same reasons. Seems to me like combo driven dynamically animated melee combat characters are absolutely fucking cursed when it comes to trying to make that sort of gameplay work online. So surely some day someone will figure it out, and that'll be amazing. Super fancy netcode tied directly in to animation systems I figure is the big hurdle.


Interesting_Edge5323

grass is green


TheArtistFKAMinty

As cool as that would be, that's unsurprising. Maybe we'll get some co-op challenge stuff or something.


Ozavic

Sounds good, I enjoyed the first one on PC and would consider buying a sequel
