Bodycount's Co-Op Details Revealed

After months of waiting we finally have details on the game's cooperative mode.

We've had our eyes on Bodycount for quite some time now with promises of co-op trickled every step of the way.  But it wasn't until now, about a month before the game's release, that we've finally gotten details as to exactly what co-op will entail.

The game will have a two player online co-op horde/survival mode where players face off against waves of enemies.  Sounds pretty standard fanfare, but the developer claims that the game's unique enemy classes have allowed them to create waves that force players to mix up their strategy a bit.

Outside of the co-op, Bodycount will offer your standard competitive deathmatch/team dm modes as well as an additional single player mode called "Bodycount" that sounds like a score based arcade mode.  

Bodycount is out the end of August on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

I had read somewhere that co-op was going to be a side story campaign. I guess a Horde mode could be consider a mini-campaign if there is some sort of story to it. Oh well - with it being only two players and only online then this game barely warrants a rental.

Is it wrong that I'm getting tired of all the horde/survival modes that get tacked on to all these games... I mean.. if its added to a game that already has other forms of co-op and this is just one more extra bonus, then that's good, but when horde is the only co-op experience offered in a game, I just grow tired of it too quickly. *shrug* Maybe I'm the only one.

I agree Blakepro. A horde mode alone does not increase my interest in buying a game; I consider these titles on their single player merits. Campaign co-op games are of more interest to me - or a solid co-op extension like in Splinter Cell.

Agreed, would have been better with a co-op campaign

no local co-op?
what is it with devs these days and hating on split screen? those were the best times i've ever had growing up and even today. The only reason people at my house clamor for Cash-In of Duty Crap Ops is because it has 4 player split screen. Hey, you want some success tips devs putting in co-op? HAVE SOME GOD DAMN SPLIT SCREEN AND MORE PEOPLE WILL PLAY YOUR GAME!
