I have a request: all future Pixeljunk games need to have online coop, should there be coop. This is 2011 y’all. Come on.

I’m glad that Shooter 2 will have online competitive play, but there’s still a long way to go. Although, if Shooter 2 will get us as far as competing online, maybe the foundation will be set to add the functionality into all of their games. After all, it would increase sales of their back catalog.

Initially, when I played the PixelJunk games, my reaction was to immediately tell my friends about it. However, when I discovered that the games didn’t allow for online play, I had to reel in a lot of the enthusiasm and didn’t give them the hard-sell. It sort of changed my reaction from “THIS GAME IS AWESOME, WE HAVE TO PLAY IT TOGETHER” to “it’s a well-designed game, you could probably play it with your girlfriend”. How great it would have been to be able to both enjoy it with your girlfriend AND your best friend who lives in another city.

I love all these PixelJunk games, including Shooter, but I can’t understand why they don’t build online play into their games. No matter how nostalgic you want to be about the good old days, playing Atari 2600 side by side, the modern world necessitates online play, and not just PVP.

All of the PixelJunk series is a blast to play in co-op mode, but my gamer friends are not usually available to come over to my house. Judging by the age of Jeff and Matt, I would suspect that a lot of today’s gamers have jobs and other demands that prevent them from visiting friends’ houses often. Online co-operative and competitive play is key to maintaining a social game life for me, and for many. So, I wish the PixelJunk series would be patched to allow for online gaming.

I was wondering other than the online battle mode is there online coop this time.

Peace
