I will make it co-op.
Thank you
hero
My team is already extremely versed in UE5. If the SDK is restricted, we should be able to unlock full development fairly easily. If we can port games from Unity to UE5, we can make open world co-op a thing.
My Anomaly Conversion focuses on milsim realism, with heavy RTS aspects (fully custom Warfare, not the standard Warfare overhaul) so i also plan on doing the same thing with Stalker 2. Milsim survival, with hints of RTS. I want players to be able to work together, or join different factions and fight for resources, territory, strategic locations, and bases... Might take us a year or two, but we'll have enough multiplayer modes to make sure everyone has a place to call home ❤️
@@STALKERWarDogs you are God
@@breny8915 no, but he created me in his image, just as he did you.
I am but a simple developer and modder. I have 20 years experience, started when i was only 8. Uncle got me into Arma Cold War and diablo 2 modding at that age, i went on to Unreal Tournament, Arma 2, Fallout 3/NV, DayZ SA/Arma3, Chernobylite, and now, Stalker Anomaly. I've worked on multiple unreal projects with various teams over the last 10 years, so i feel confident in my ability to jump back into Unreal modding and hit the road running. If i cant figure something out, I know people that can. My goal with S2 will primarily be milsim survival, but given the multiplayer confirmation... I can't help but want to dive into that and provide the playerbase with the modes they want.
stalker coop is a dream that every stalker dreamt of in their sleep at least once. its not about the game being scary. just imagine playing this mod with your friend. your friend does a deal with some bandits, getting trapped. and you get the quest to save him. stuff like this could be put all over the game. just the thought of sitting together at a campfire.... hope a coop mod will come soom
I was hoping for a coop story or at least coop based "missions" for the different factions doing stuff relevant to their goals.
Some modders will make this happen
well oh boy do i have news for you
There are coop stalker mods already made
Honestly with the framework of multiplayer there's going to be so many mods. I really think this game is going to blow wide open with the modded community.
My team is already planning on starting a co-op overhaul as soon as the SDK and multiplayer releases. We will increase difficulty and life in the zone to compensate for the extra player. Game dialog can be rewritten slightly to make the second player feel like more than just a side kick.. either way, Skif will be main, and he will have a less important friend. Main Issue will be cutscenes
@STALKERWarDogs That's awesome to hear!
I'm also curious what multiplayer will be like because if its a generic shooter that is kind of boring but if its like Tarkov or something where NPCs and monsters are involved it could be really good. It could also be like planetside where you choose a faction like Duty, Freedom etc and then you fight for control of areas of the map.
@pablopablo3834 worst case mods will make all kinds of modes as long as the framework is there.
@@pablopablo3834 what medicbobs said. If the framework is there, Unreal5 blueprinting will make expanding and added all sorts of modes fairly easy. Especially with ChatGPT helping
Stalker coop is always wanted that's why stalcraft X is popular for people that love the stalker series.
ive been waiting 10 years and the cheeki breeki gods have finally spoken...
stalcraft is popular bc of pvp mainly not just for coop tho
@@miguelangelzapatacampo380I feel like stalcraft isn't popular for it's pvp since pvp isn't rewarding/fun just feels like it's there just to be there. Feel like it's more popular because of it's grindiness and missions
I know we are all tired of extraction shooters BUT a stalker extraction mode would be fire in my opinion. Tarkov but more atmospheric. Tasks from the traders in game, while artifacts would be the profit motivation just like for stalkers. I think it would tie in single player and multiplayer very nicely.
This is a great point. Considering Tarkov devs took MASSIVE inspiration from the Stalker series, it would fit well and could be implemented pretty easily, I'd imagine.
I'm more tired of battle royal and overly colorful skins.
they wont sadly
@kinsou3865 why?
@@odys3803 they want a deathmatch
The multiplayer should been just a survival mode on the full map
Why? So you don’t get pooped on in pvp?
Calm down edgelord. It’s more that the game is super atmospheric and amazing to both survive and adventure in. Having a buddy along for the ride would be cool.
Nah man i hope multiplayer is extraction style. it would make sense since youre in THE ZONE
@@NakedAvanger Thats what I hope as well. A Hunt-like game with modern weapons.
I can’t wait to see what they do with it. Been playing since 12 am my first stalker game and I can’t wait to see the approach they take
honestly rather than traditional TDM PvP mode, Rust/DayZ type of survival mode in the Zone would be so interesting. you can be a nobody, assigned into one of the factions and try to simulate the Zone with other players
Dayz is the best fit for the game rust is a lot different to dayz i have 30k hours in rust on pc lol
The game reminds me more of dayz than rust
Dude we need dayz with stalker graphics
Just needs an extraction mode like tarkov. It has the perfect environment, gunplay and user interface.
I'm the first to hate on studios forcing popular game modes onto their games but man, i really think an extraction gamemode would work so well in stalker 2
I can see it being much better then Tarkov in some aspects for sure
STALKER co-op makes all the sense in the world to be honest. Sure, not for story content that's supposed to be scary/tense- but for repeatable, free roam side missions? It would add a lot.
Stalker has potential to be another Escape From Tarkov but more casual. That would be cool to play.
Modes like extraction, royale, arena, coop, etc. There are so many possibilities. I think the devs gona push a live service after launch
No, just only give us extractions n we don't need all the other crap this isn't cod kid.
@@DHell-n8inot everythig is because of cod. Honesly op has a point this map and style would be amazing for extraction/pvp survival modes
@@dishwater0 it's a trend that's why I'm referring to cod
PvP play was well implemented in Stalker Call of Pripyat. There were 3 modes - Deathmatch, team against another team and Artifact Hunt. I spent about 200 hours in the PvP game in 2009-10, my favorite map was Fire Station
Lore-wise, Stalker is not "meant to be solo" as the devs say. The whole book that the game is based off has groups of stalkers working together to find artifacts in the exclusion zone. I hope the devs will implement this in the future...
roadside picnic is completely different than stalker. they dont even bring guns into the zone in roadside picnic because they are considered ineffective, you dont want stalker to be like roadside picnic lmao
It's very easy only the host can adjust things in the game the second player just gets the update from what player one did, now you don't have to worry about getting two players controlling one world, which means less code it would be more a exploration feature for the second player however you can still enjoy the world together. I really vote for Coop games it can bring you a other level of joy and since the game support mods, we got a chance to create a multiplayer feature for this game
ALL they need to do is allow coop in the same world. Allow people to join their friends on a map, up to 3 people would be fine, and allow them to progress through the story together. I mean the map is large enough, the world is dense enough and the enemies are hard enough that it would NOT take very much extra work AT ALL. In fact, it MIGHT even make the gameplay HARDER for the player if they then had to SHARE resources between 2 or 3 people.
I doubt it’s gonna be as hard as gamma,… I’m willing to bet if you played gamma you’ll breeze through this game
I think letting mod makers make the Co-Op mode will be good enough, as long as GSC Game World can have the mod tools have access to the multiplayer code. Then mod makers can work with the game and make a "story" that fits the open world with small group of stalkers doing what stalkers do. Hopefully mod makers are able to do what they were with the first games, and build upon each others work.
The good news, is that it will have multiplayer net code added and created officialy, making a co-op mod much more of a reality to acheive by modders
We used to play the first stalker multiplayer at LAN parties, it was a welcome change to playing CS and COD all day. Especially with the night maps, definitely a good cat and mouse type of shooter.
So long as the multiplayer component is at least part of the game code, im sure modders will come together to create a fantastic coop experience. I do feel like a coop mod in the vein of an open ended anomaly like game world would work best.
I can 100% see a co-op mod being released, at least on pc im not sure if or how that could work on console
An hunt showdown style mod like a sort of artefact hunt would be good, capture the prized rare artefact in this or this location field with mutants, and extract facing others 2-3 composed stalker team, so some PVE + PVP elements
OR some typical braindead arena mod in Rostok when you just face oponents in PVP mod
It would be really sick if they made the multipalayer like the warfare mode in anomaly
The death matches in STALKER SoC were some of the most camper enjoyment shooting experiences ever! Stealth is so on point there, all the sounds!..
coop would be amazing. exploring, looting, and getting in intense shootouts with my friends would be amazing.
boy do i have news for you...
The only thing I remember about the OG STALKER multiplayer was only being able to find one busted server consistently,
and it was somewhere in South America so I'd just get murdered by dudes skipping all over the map
Emphatically, I am 'only' interest in STALKER for coop
but mostly because I enjoy the single player mechanics, especially with recent mods that use diagetic animations for most every action (also seen in STALKER 2) are well suited to making players vulnerable and dependent upon a teammate. Sharing resources naturally balances itself in groups.
I have yet to get around and test, but apparently xrMPe now as officially complete support for Call of Pripyat coop mode. No doubt a lot of balance is necessary to get things into the right state, but I think STALKER is the type of game with enough moving parts to accommodate a lot of different balance preferences.
I just hope they bring co op to xbox. They could make it so you have to beat the base game before accessing it too so you get the full experience before jumping into multi-player. Id love to play with friends.
making multiplayer with mods would be insane, i could imagine a team of devs making an extraction shooter with mods or even a rust/dayz survival mode
Multiplayer might be fun however i think the bigger picture of MP mode will be the ability for modders to use its base for creating a CO-OP mod.
NGL having the whole game being open world multiplayer pvpve experience would be insanely cool. Imagine being part of factions and getting missions to kill players
It wont surprise me when we get a coop mod
im waitng for modders to create coop mod, PRAY IN MODDERS
Stalker having a estraction game mode would be awesome!!
Or maybe a batlle royale mode
I think the psy helmet could act as a means to "balance" certain missions. If the calibrated psy helm could only be given to the single player host, but allow the partial calibrated helms for online friends, the devs could allow friends to head to the psy locked zones, but would very likely die if they tried to rush a mission similar to the Scortcher.
I was looking forward to a co-op mode, even if it was only going to be 2 players. Open-world games are just much more fun with a friend.
Co-op mode would be nice. In my opinion it should be a must.
I'm guessing the MP for Stalker 2 will be an extraction shooter modeled after EFT.
Pvpve with artifacts would go pretty hard imo
like a mini stalcraft or something like that
I am glad it's PvP mode. People will mod other multiplayer modes in. Be cool to have self hosted servers too. Allow for some fun plugins and conversions.
i hope they make like raid a base with boss battle or special mechanic type not just normal pvp, but underground ranking stalker tourney vs other stalker or mutant is good too
There’s a lot they could do with multiplayer to make it stand out from the crowd. Instead of bog-standard basic stuff like Team Deathmatch, maybe go for a PvPvE extraction game mode. Something to compete in the Tarkov vein, but with STALKER’s world. Anomalies, mutants, NPCs, and other players to contend with over missions, loot, and artifacts. I think that would be really cool and it’s a lot more fitting for this type of game than simple and boring COD style multiplayer modes. This would be great streaming content too.
As for the co-op thing, I don’t think it would be so bad. The STALKER experience would still be there, only you play the game absent the story mode with generic characters. Could also be great for streaming content. Streaming, of course, is free publicity for the game.
Stalcraft was pretty fun, an actual extraction-like multiplayer mode for stalker 2 would be dope imo
We should go back normalize multiplayer as it always has been. A little extra game mode, a little bonus.
And for the love of God FIX THE NIGHT VISION!!! 😂😂 cannot wait for this game to drop!!!!!
It would be cool if they made it PVP / PVE. Make it a gray Zone Warfare tarkov stalker type thing
stalker coop would be the ultimate stalker, sure it would be less scary, but way more memorable, a lot more replayabilty and fun... there been so many times where in coop the game just became a lot more fun
Would love to see them emulate hunt: showdown. Small number of players in groups of up to 3 trying to find an artifact or something.
The fact that they want to add multiplayer is amazing, but the implications that (at least the first multiplayer) will PvP isn't great. Co-op should come first 100%, even if it makes the world more dangerous.
Stalker as a setting is ripe for an extraction shooter. Ik people say its oversaturated but depending on how they do it it could be neat between the anomalies, factions, and possibly not even encouraging pvp just merely having it as an option
if they make multiplayer just like Stalcraft X it will make them a lot of money as GaaS live service.
you know, make Warfare mode from Stalker Anomaly to be mode in Stalker 2 multiplayer could be interesting too, it will be like The Elder Scroll Online PvP zone Cyrodill
it wont be this. it'll be the same as the other stalker games with oldschool CoD type shit with TDMs and what not. i'd be highly surprised if it was anything different. HOWEVER: the game is on unreal, which is very likely to be much much easier to mod so we'll likely see a coop mod or somethin akin to this perhaps
@fortieznoshortiez yeah hopefully since Epic already show us that Unreal Engine games could be modded to be different games, they use Fortnite as example.
So we only could hope modders make Stalker 2 to be interesting game like Stalker Anomaly
I don’t need a coop campaign but after helldivers and space marine 2; I’d prefer a coop gamemode
imagine its battle royale makes sense for the environment
I don’t want co-op. I just want my buddy to be able to run his stalker, on my server. We might not even run together all the time ya know ?🤷🏻♂️
I hope modders can get a foot in the door like Cyberpunk 🙏🙏🙏🙏
sure it may not be the same experience but co-op would be so fun
This game is made to be a extraction looter in MP I hope so much this can be modded if not in the game
Stalker would be great with PVPVE extraction mode ! Well modders will do it 😅
just go play tarkov omg
It really would!
Yeah, they could copy The Elder Scroll Online Cyrodiil map as PvP zone, make it to be faction warfare mode like in Stalker Anomaly game.
They could copy The Division's Dark Zone, like they isolate Pripyat and make it PvPvE zone, make it to be high risk high reward zone
so tarkov? lol
@a.zhe.2160 didnt know Tarkov had dangerous creatures and anomalies 🤔 maybe I should play it.. 🤡
Co-op gen 0 style would be sick
co op would be fucking FIRE in this game.. ive beat the game recently and i swear
I hardly believe that there's "No demand" for it. Because that makes no sense.
Almost everyone i've met wanted COOP in stalker since the first games.
Co-op would be cool but it would also be so much easier also less intense and scary. Its not STALKER if you just revive your buddy and don't get your ass handed to you a few times. It would also give you a much larger amount of loot to be gained with two backpacks.
"It's a solo experience" "Has multiplayer pvp"
*visible confusion*
Lethal company proves you can make a scary coop multiplayer game smh
"they probably never saw a demand for it".... wtf you mean they never saw ? were they freaking BLIND ?
multiplayer should have been like tarkov but with pve and pvp would have been amazing
If you see what Stalcraft X does. One it allows co-op. two, when you do a quest mode you go in solo to get that solo feeling you described. This it doesn’t work the experience you spoke about.
How cool would it be if there were others player stalkers roaming around in the world,..kinda like dayz or somthing
Stalker had PVP which worked but it was jank bc the gunplay of old stalker was jank so with this game it seems like it could be dope
I wish they would make a mode like Hunt Showdown
Someone will definitely mod Co-op in (Hopefully)
I'm fantastically interested in the game I just wish for, not even coop, just another spawn. =D mods maybe.
cant wait for this game. multiplayer will be good.
People might hate me for this but what about just open world muiltiplayer similar to dayz just many people in the zone that could team up or kill anyone who they come in contact with I think that would be dope
there is no demand for coop because us pve players simply hope they do it. we dont get on reddit and stomp our feet like children we're chill. we simply expect devs to ad coop to good games, shame they dont though.
This would make a great DayZ copy
much much much better
Tbh after "survivium" failer devs shod learn from mistakes even if it just fun little mod.
Will buy if co-op. Even barebones.
Honestly, I think this forces such a cool concept with them strictly saying it won't be a Co-op mode. Stick with me.... hear me out.
Think about it. As a S.T.A.L.K.E.R you would be forced to always begin and survive by yourself in the lore of the world. But this is the thing, I don't think they will strictly 'stop' or 'restrict' that type of gameplay.....
But I think it will force you to have to, quite literally, take a chance in attempting to team up with another player via PvP. In a truly ORGANIC way... we all will have to rely on our gut, on seeing if maybe, just maybe another player out there might not pull the trigger before you call out across the battlefield for a truce, and maybe even a temporary partnership.
Amd just like that, two lonely S.T.A.L.K.E.R.'S have formed a random encounter, no green names above their heads, just a mutual, verbal agreement, within the lonely dark world, that is the zone.
Who knows how long it could last, and how long it may take before either one of your lives are cut short, and only one of you will have the tale left to tell, at a safe zone fire, among other PvP stalkers, who have had similiar, or maybe not so similiar experiences.
I truly, and genuinely believe, that this sort of thesis could work so well, to the point, it just encapsulates the Zone and Surviving elements, of the game so well, that it could just be that little cherry on top. 🍒
Let me know what you think, because I honestly think this could be the only way it can work for multiplayer, in the way that they've specified, and in a way that accommodates the very nature of S.T.A.L.K.E.R to perfection.
(That is if they incorporate a Free Roam mode or a server based like DayZ where everybody is just doing their own Online progression mode, that could have its entirely own experience different to Single player with A.I)
I hope it’s gonna be extraction shooter like better version of escape from tarkov
It will be scary if the MP is PVP in the zone and survival that is the only way if not is just simple co-op.
Multiplayer in stalker = coop, we aint buying this game to play team deathmatch in chernobyl, cod 4 already did that so modders save this game❤️
THIS IS WHAT IM WONDERING!
Modders will save the game as they did with GAMMA and Anomaly, Misery...
NO ONE WANTS OR WILL PLAY MULTIPLAYER, everyone wants co-op.
They could've easily do a co op thing without any big issues that would've been extremely fun , they didn't do it however because the AI is dumb AF (from what I've seen so far) and the game will be even less challenging than in the previous episodes.The other major ingredient the game will be lacking is the random encounters , a feature of the ALife system, that was never exploited in the vanilla games ...
im probably the minority when i say i never cared for coop in stalker
I really hope its not tdm or free for all as that would just be pointless. No one wants that anymore. If they released an extraction mode however, I could see it being the most played game on consoles. The environment and gunplay is perfect for an extraction game mode.
Well the guns look really satisfying. Why shouldn't it be a good experience? Co-Op should be added... you should at least have the choice.
I’m tired of multiplayer being in every game, need more games like Elden Ring and open world games that are so good they don’t need other people joining in or hackers ruining the game for everybody. Tired of online only games anyways
Saying that they don't want to add co-op because its supposed to be a solo experience is literally a cop out. You make the game you don't tell me how I am allowed to enjoy it. I can tell you right now there is a massive amount of people who were going to get the game that are now definitely not. I play games to have fun with friends not to seclude myself from people more. The game looked fun and I was very interested until they said no co-op from us ever, if one comes it will be a mod. I am not a fan of companies making players fix their shit decisions. No money from me.
It's ok if they don't add Co-Op on STALKER 2. Modders will.
Need a stalcraft type mode
Imagine stalker 2 GAMMA in 5 years.
Just give us a survival pvp mode in the open world
Or a extraction shooter pvp
This game would have slammed as a co-op the game isn’t scary in any way btw
NO DEMAND FOR CO-OP?!?!!!!!?!!
i just like walk n see stuff too but big times would play also...was
Which multiplayer is good at 30fps?
I disagree, id love to have my friend with me during every part of stalker
No.... the coop mod may be though.
The game isn’t scary if you’re a psycho like me
