Quick basic question about coop

Shodansown · Post by **Shodansown** » Sun Jun 10, 2007 8:47 am

I've been desperately looking for a mod that will allow me to play through the main story of standard Half Life 2 coop with a friend either online, or via LAN. From what I've read, this mod seems to support this, but I'm not entirely sure. If someone could please tell me if this is possible with this (or other) mod, I'd appreciate it greatly.

Yes, it is, the only problem may be the vehicle chapters, because there is only 1 vehicle. I'd explain more, but it's 3am and I only had 2 hours of sleep last night. I'm going to bed.

Thats what I figured. Do you just ~ to the next checkpoint? Can you have a guy riding by just standing on one of the vehicles?

Anyways, great news that it works there...we'll have to check it out.

If you want to play the HL² Storyline as Bug Free as possible you should keep an eye on the Follow Freeman Coop Mod.
They change and enhance all the maps, to let them fit into Coop play without Bugs!

It isnt Finished yet, but theres a 2 Chapter Demo out.

As much as I love this mod, George up there is right. This isn't the best way to play through singleplayer cooperativly. Ours is full of holesa nd problems at the moment. Though we are good if you just want normal maps to play through with friends.

It's playable with 2 players.

Just ask the other one to duck and get on his head when there are doors that close once you get in the room and both get in at the same time. Don't even try doing this on public servers, better change the map to a custom one.

And use ch_createairboat and ch_createjeep for the vehicle chapters.

Although the coast can be done on foot, so you can just watch behind you your buddy getting raped by antlions and laugh while youre about to crash in a wall.

Players can already spawn airboats if they:
a: Don't have one
b: Lost theirs

In maps that allow it.
Players will be able to spawn jeeps in 1.3 for the coast maps. Rules for spawning will be as strict as spawning airboats.
