Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 Co-Op "Completely Revamped"

Marc "DjinniMan" Allie June 30th, 2009 at 12:09 AM    


Don't let the title for this article mislead you, folks.  The actual co-op in Marvel Ultimate Alliance was great, and that seems to be unchanged.  There were some problems, though, with adding players, changing characters, etc.  The interface was a bit tedious when these tasks needed to be done.  According to Aeropause Games, after a sneak peek at M:UA2, this stuff is much better in the sequel.

Now for those that complained at great length about the co-op play in the first Marvel Ultimate Alliance, you voices have been heard.  Co-op has been completely revamped from top to bottom and it will be easier to join games, and choose characters.  This is a big plus in my book as co-op was such a chore in the first Marvel Ultimate Alliance.  I was never able to select characters properly when less than four players were playing in co-op, and it never felt 100% stable.

The preview is definitely worth a read, revealing some really interesting Fusion combos.  Thor summoning a whirlwind, which the Human Torch fills with flames is perhaps the coolest.  But Storm using Captain America's shield to fry a whole screen of enemies doesn't seem too shabby either.  We're really looking forward to getting our hands on this game, for sure!

The things I'm hoping for are drop-in / drop-out for online games and the ability to bring your own character to a multiplayer game (not using the host's characters).

Drop in/drop out and bringing your own character in should become standard in co-op imo. I loved the first game as did my GF. A game that anyone can play.

It would be sweet to be able to bring over your own characters.
