Co-Op still can be played!

#1

Im pretty sure with SOME console commands such as,

sv_lan

sv_region

That max players command.

I remembered there was a command that made two copys of weapons appear (so if you picked up a crowbar, there still is one left for a friend)

Dont flame me about co-op, I am not butthurt about it being gone.

#2

Yeah well, but probably the mod and levels won’t be optimized for co-op.

#3

Yes.

Except not really. There’s a lot more to it than that.

Most of us already know that there will be an addition to some mods such as Sven that will do this.

#4

Yeah and most players wont get weapons, (or even be able to come with you due to scripted sequences,) until very late in the game.

#5

But Sven Coop 2 and Obsidian Conflict do the trick of HL coop in source.

#6

Sven Coop 2 died years ago unfortunately.

#7

I never understood the facination with sven coop

#8

Sven coop 2’s development was stopped in favor of the hl1 mod.

#9

I hope the make Sven coop 2 a mod of Black Mesa, that couldnt be more awsome.

#10

I really hope so but no stupid shit like new enemies and or new weapons or anything like that. Just if they could perfectly optimise the game for co-op and make it so that you can make co-op maps would be friggin’ awesome.

#11

I really doubt the Sven team is going to do anything source-related at this point. I’ve been hanging around their forums for quite a while and the general feeling seems to be that what they were planning with SC2 has pretty much been done with other co-op mods already. Starting over from scratch (which is probably what they’d have to do) at this point seems quite pointless, so they’re keeping their focus on improvements to the Gldsrce version.

#12

^ This.

I’d rather drink cheap, warm beer then play Sven Co-op in one of those retarded campaign maps they made for it.

#13

well sven coop 2 is not really dead, it’s development will start/continue when sven coop 1 is completed.

#14

The problem is that Sven Coop 1 is never completed.

#15

Wow. Consuming cheap, warm beer is one of the worst experiences you can voluntarily commit yourself to perform, very close to drinking your own bile. Through transitivity, Sven Coop must be a terrible experience.

I considered installing it before, just so I could play through Half-Life with my girlfriend, but when I saw the numerous changes they made, I decided against it.

Hopefully the BM: S team, or whoever ends up crafting the co-op experience of the mod, will maintain the original experience as best as they can.

#16

Sven co-op 2 won’t be made by the original team, the Source engine is already 6 years old.

#17

Oh, so that’s what the devs have been doing wrong all this time, they only needed 2 vague console commands! Good thing you came along!

#18

“Synergy” and “Follow Freeman” rather successfully added co-op in HL2 and episodes.
So I’m think, co-op in BMS would be made in pair monthes after release.

#19

You have to keep in mind that it requires access to the source code, anybody who would be working on co-op needs access to it.

#20

Me neither.
