The fact that it's not "seamless" co-op as advertised is a shame. The seamless co-op mod for elden ring really spoiled my friends and I for top-notch coop experience.
@@64thKomapatientYou technically can but since the co op partner only gets half or one third XP that person will fall behind greatly and die too easily.
@@ElephoontOfTheShapes properly farm then. The host has spent their points on key items and the upside is that your partner cant lose points while the host can.
You wouldnt believe how difficult it is sometimes to find a straight answer when it comes to WHEN you can start coop for a game. I really appreciate this video and please keep answering that "when can coop start" question with future vids!
@@cruelworld1902 unfortunately you can't, putting a password stops them for some minutes (in case you want a friend to invade you) but they can still invade afterwards. A shame because as expected pvp in Lotf is trash and makes coop les fun due to it.
I have never played these types of games. My buddy and I are looking for a new game to play. We pretty much exclusively play together so my question is. If he hosted every gaming session would I be able to keep all loot and progress through game along with him with no issues? I'm just confused by what was said in the video about the guest not keeping loot.
Answer is no, you won’t be able to keep loot or progress. Essentially when you play a Souls-game in co-op you end up doing everything twice. Bummer, and really wish in 2023 we would have fixed this by now!
On the same version of Pc and PS5 and same password and crossplay enable, still not work and can't join/invite my friend in the game...any news? We spent 120€ to play the campaign together and we dont want to play alone
I was running multiplayer with my friend and he fell down the elevator in the bell room and it upped his level by 50 and respeced his whole character and now I can’t play multiplayer in my world but I can in other worlds
I cannot understand that mechanic ... One being the host and the others playing for the benefit of the host, is not a co-op, its the host offering a game when you accompanied him, nothin more, nothing less. Lot's of games uses that crap menchanics, I just want one souls game with the multiplayer coop like Resident Evil 6 or something like that.
Is there a strategy for who to put as player 1 vs player 2 if one person is significantly more experienced than the other? I am playing this with a friend and I'm not sure how they'll do. I'm thinking it's probably best for me to act as player 2?
does anyone know how connect to your friends who are on another platform, my bud is on play station and i cant seem to figure out how to connect to him.
I have been beckoning a lampbearer on my ps5 for an hour and still cant find anyone ,closed the game and opened it a multiple times made sure crossplay is on and still cant find anyone to help or a way to play with a PC friends 👎🏽
You do share at least the vendors or the blacksmith and the lady who upgrades your potions I know this because I was able to upgrade my potion before even fighting the very first boss
Thanks for this!!! Will certainly help inform me and my friend if this is a game that works well for both of us. Seems like the type of game where we'll have to jump between each world to help with both sides of progression. Also, could you do a video on AC Unity? My friend and I still have this bug where we can only play with randoms, but Ubisoft Connect doesn't seem to properly recognize when we're inviting each other into a coop game. I've tried every single method approached online to no successful degree. Hoping you might have an idea if this is a resolvable situation or if Ubisoft really forgot to patch out this game-breaking bug in terms of coop.
Been trying to play coop with my brother both ps5 he join me once after that we can’t play coop anymore tons of problems they need to fix. So much updates so little done disappointing
I was all in until the part of the video he said, "cannot play ps to xbox" well there goes my hope of playing with my buddy since we both own different consoles, dang it!
-No items for the guest -50% less xp for the guest -No interaction as a guest -Performance of framerate/latency can be awfull sometimes -Many bugs -You will get bodyblocked a lot and gonna freak out -No story save for the guest, wich means everytime you end a session with your host you start from scratch (At the starting point you entered the host) To resume: DON'T PLAY COOP it's freaking annoying except you are a maniac !
So if you play on quality graphic setting then it will run poorly. If it's changed to performance it will run at higher fps. It doesn't run at a perfect 60 all the time so you will see drops in frame rate pretty often but it's definitely smoother than playing on quality graphics. My issue with this game is the lag you get while playing coop
unfortunately just returned this game after realizing the pitfalls of co-op. I just don't track why games only got half way with co-op. Add it or don't
Dude that's not true either you can revive them pretty much whenever it's just the problem is is it actually showing the person's ghost I know this is a fact because it said to revive the player I looked around there was no location where I can revive them there are other times where it says I can revive them and I can revive them during a boss fight it's just the game it's so badly made that it's going to take a long time for this game to actually be what it's supposed to be
This game's connection to the server is so bad that you're going to get 99% of the time you lost connection failed connection then the garbage game is going to blame you instead of its own garbage self which I believe they should honestly scrap that saying they have in the game and actually have it say we're sorry we fucked up
After playing 300 hours of Elden Ring COOP mod, which is absolutely PERFECT, this seems like bad joke, its super complicated and has some stupid rules to coop, just WHY
My buddies are refunding this rn, this game is saddening, $70 and $8 for the glass and the performance is horrible, low fps, slow times, no shared progression and own loot, only the host gets the loot, awful
This is not a souls title so you can't really call a souls game you call it a souls knock-off because that's what it is it's a knock-off they eventually got better at making games I can say that well mainly making a story I should say making a game on the other hand they decided to get worse because they made the surge one and two that actually had some really amazing story but then when you look at this game it's just story not functionality
We never called it a Souls title. We use the term souls-like which is a common industry term to describe a game that’s inspired by the Souls games developed by FromSoftware 👍
The fact that it's not "seamless" co-op as advertised is a shame. The seamless co-op mod for elden ring really spoiled my friends and I for top-notch coop experience.
Agreed!
Admittedly, I am pretty annoyed but I think my buddy and I will get through it
How is it not seamless? I’ve been playing with my homie
@noodle-tt6jxare the items shared at least?
@noodle-tt6jxfor example if the host opens a chest and there is an item in there does the other person also get the item?
I was hoping the co-op would be like in Remnant 2. Shame.
Got scammed the game says it’s 3 player co-op on the store and I can’t get a refund this is some bs
Wasn’t this game advertising uninterrupted coop……why can’t these games just make coop simple imagine how much more appealing it would be
It is uninterrupted, you can play the game entirely in coop from start to end without qutting.
@@64thKomapatientYou technically can but since the co op partner only gets half or one third XP that person will fall behind greatly and die too easily.

Oh trust me we would believe you hahah That was one of the main reasons we started the channel in the first place! Glad this one helped you out!!
I'm really sad that I'm just now finding out about this channel. Needed a channel like this for years!
Please do anyone know how to join a friend with different platforms? I can't find any answer....
I’m having such a hard time finding coop people
So am I and I’m only lvl 30
The fact that they misled us with how coop was gonna be “seamless” is disgraceful. Might refund actually
Does the password system influence invaders as well?
Or are invasions something you simply can't avoid?
in elden ring you can't. So i assume you can't avoid them unless there is way to turn it off in settings
@@cruelworld1902 unfortunately you can't, putting a password stops them for some minutes (in case you want a friend to invade you) but they can still invade afterwards.

@@nekkofrost1419 You can use mirror of protection that you can buy from some merchants or exit to main menu and join back from what I read.
Finally it looks so much better and easier than souls co-op why do they have to overcomplicate everything
The game said its 3 player co op but i can only play with one of my friends 😢

Man it really sucks when I got to wait a minute or two just to connect to a player and then realized that it just disconnected
Im playing the game right now and the co-op sucks guys, if you dont mind play with other it's still a good game
On the same version of Pc and PS5 and same password and crossplay enable, still not work and can't join/invite my friend in the game...any news? We spent 120€ to play the campaign together and we dont want to play alone
Sounds like you’re not the only one. Maybe servers are down? That sucks :/
only the croosplatofm coop doesn't work, i think is a tecnical issue or simply a fucking lies@@TheCoOpBros
As of yesterday the 14th, they took out crossplay to work on it. I just saw an article about it today
I was running multiplayer with my friend and he fell down the elevator in the bell room and it upped his level by 50 and respeced his whole character and now I can’t play multiplayer in my world but I can in other worlds
How tf did that happen??
Is there audio chat with cross play?
You can't really progress as Co Op which really kills my excitement for this game.
I cannot understand that mechanic ... One being the host and the others playing for the benefit of the host, is not a co-op, its the host offering a game when you accompanied him, nothin more, nothing less.

does anyone know how connect to your friends who are on another platform, my bud is on play station and i cant seem to figure out how to connect to him.
Dude i would rather wait another year for a games release for it to just add good full game coop.
I have been beckoning a lampbearer on my ps5 for an hour and still cant find anyone ,closed the game and opened it a multiple times made sure crossplay is on and still cant find anyone to help or a way to play with a PC friends 👎🏽
if u find the answer please tell me :(
Me too lmao i cant find anyone
Me and my friend always have connection problems, we cant play together
PC & PS crossplay doesn't seem to work right now.
Me and my brother trying to figure it out now. No luck.
Same here
Really wanted the trophies for online play, shucks
So does that mean that using the multiplayer option before fighting the boss?
You do share at least the vendors or the blacksmith and the lady who upgrades your potions I know this because I was able to upgrade my potion before even fighting the very first boss
how do you leave/stop co-op?
Thanks for this!!! Will certainly help inform me and my friend if this is a game that works well for both of us.

Can you purchase an item while on co-op?
Been trying to play coop with my brother both ps5 he join me once after that we can’t play coop anymore tons of problems they need to fix. So much updates so little done disappointing
I can't seem to join my friend on his ps5 from my pc even though we use the password
I was all in until the part of the video he said, "cannot play ps to xbox" well there goes my hope of playing with my buddy since we both own different consoles, dang it!
New player can Play with lvl 100 friend?
-No items for the guest
-50% less xp for the guest
-No interaction as a guest
-Performance of framerate/latency can be awfull sometimes
-Many bugs
-You will get bodyblocked a lot and gonna freak out
-No story save for the guest, wich means everytime you end a session with your host you start from scratch (At the starting point you entered the host)

Hows the connection? Any issues finding and playing with randoms on xbox series s?
No luck finding someone on Xbox Series S. The game lags quite a bit for me.
On my PS5, I can find people to join. It can still get glitchy.
@@cypress2089 when I am trying to play with a friend the connection just failed 30 sec into the coop gameplay
I'm not getting my friends invites but they are getting mine.
Is cross-platform ? ( xbox and ps5 )
My friend told me it's 3 player coop. 1 host and two guests. So is it 3 or 2 player coop?
He's wrong. It's only two player meaning you and your buddy. The third player is someone being able to invade you and your buddy while you're playing
Nobody joins me after the fist area of the game, nobody summons me either.
Had a couple of players earlier, having issues myself rn
What happens if you both die will u be together in the same game or no
Yes you both revive together
Anyone figured out how to pvp 1v1 your friends
I’ve heard some people say that coop is locked to 30fps on consoles. Can you confirm if that is the case? 🙏🏻
So if you play on quality graphic setting then it will run poorly. If it's changed to performance it will run at higher fps. It doesn't run at a perfect 60 all the time so you will see drops in frame rate pretty often but it's definitely smoother than playing on quality graphics. My issue with this game is the lag you get while playing coop
Why no real xo op ?
Can ps4 and ps5 coop together?
its not on ps4
unfortunately just returned this game after realizing the pitfalls of co-op. I just don't track why games only got half way with co-op. Add it or don't
Lords of the fallen… from Elden ring’s grace
how the fuck i invite my friend?!?! i m on pC and him on ps5
How do I play with my ps5 friend
I'm on steam
Do we both put beckon
Or what
Im confused
Dude that's not true either you can revive them pretty much whenever it's just the problem is is it actually showing the person's ghost I know this is a fact because it said to revive the player I looked around there was no location where I can revive them there are other times where it says I can revive them and I can revive them during a boss fight it's just the game it's so badly made that it's going to take a long time for this game to actually be what it's supposed to be
We just want a fighting game in co-op not some family sht of changing a story based game into co-op lol
This game's connection to the server is so bad that you're going to get 99% of the time you lost connection failed connection then the garbage game is going to blame you instead of its own garbage self which I believe they should honestly scrap that saying they have in the game and actually have it say we're sorry we fucked up
