The co op mod killed the game and should be bannable with the next update

Firstly. We all know the co op mod was made by and for people who haven’t played a Soulsborne game before. The already neutrd invasions were still too much for their tourist hearts.

Second. The mod goes against what the game is intended to be played as. When you summon help, you make up for that with extra boss health and being open to invasions. This still doesn’t make it anywhere near as hard as doing it solo. But the mod makes it even easier and cheats to avoid game mechanics.

Third. It has a negative impact on the playerbase as legitimate players without the mod cannot find invasions or co op at all.

I believe and hope this kind of thing will be disallowed soon. For the good of the game and community.

Bro, you should be more worried about going outside than what other people do for entertainment.

This is a video game discussion. We will talk about video games here.

I do go outside. But that’s not what we talk about on here. I can only assume you never go outside and are projecting since you bring that up.

Coop mode isn't gonna be bannable because it doesn't cross with official multiplayer. That's the whole point. It doesn't use FromSoft servers and that's also why people use mods with it. Since they are already cut off from official servers to begin with.

Besides, it's very easy to remove invasions even if you play normally, as long as you're cooping with a friend.

It interferes with official servers by separating the playerbase and butchering game mechanics. This has already killed the official online game and ruined the experience the developers wanted to show. As such, it is likely to be banned soon, as it should be.

Bro with the Neko profile picture talking about going outside while complaining people he don't know is using a mod they find fun with their friends.

"Third. It has a negative impact on the playerbase as legitimate players without the mod cannot find invasions or co op at all." These players would just play offline to avoid invaders if they couldn't use the mod, it does not affect you negatively at all.

"Second. The mod goes against what the game is intended to be played as. When you summon help, you make up for that with extra boss health and being open to invasions. This still doesn’t make it anywhere near as hard as doing it solo. But the mod makes it even easier and cheats to avoid game mechanics."

Bro who gives a ♥♥♥♥, i don't think anyone plays co op for the difficulty. do i think it should apply the multiplayer scaling? absolutely but i don't use the mod so i don't care.

If you are actively against the coop mod you should probably just talk about mods in general since all of them "go against what the game is intended to be played as".

If there was a clear way the game was intended to be played as Fromsoft would have done something about it. They didn't. They are fine with mods and the community to do whatever the hell they wanna do.

This isn't Dark Souls, people keep forgetting that, so invasion are not nearly as big of a part here.

Also the biggest aspect of the coop mod and probably the main reason why it exists is because coop in fromsoft games sucks ass. The mod makes the entire game playable in coop from beginning to end without having to reconnect over and over again or having to beat everything twice. That's a huge deal for people who wanna play this game with their friends.

Bro ignored the last part of the comment, this mod isn't what is breaking up the playerbase, the players are distancing themselves on purpose and would still do so even if the mod didn't exist. Should we ban offline players too since it makes it harder to invade?

This is gonna sound harsh, but play on consoles if you're worried about mods.

No, dude you don't get it. Seamless coop is a separate thing. It has no connection to official servers. How can they ban somebody who doesn't interact with their infrastructure.
And even if they did, those people don't care. They already play with coop mod, they don't need regular servers.

So you cry over cartoons and think video games are for people who never go outside?

They’re always slow with banning cheaters. This mod literally destroys official servers so don’t you worry, they’ll come for your chest soon enough:vanilla2:

Lawsuits work too. They’re actively damaging the playerbase and official game servers players experiences. Say bye to your cheats soon.

I know how it works, it’s you that doesn’t get it:vanilla4:

Hard to ban people when they don't even come near their official servers though.

Make no mistake here, people were either going to use the mod or most likely not going to play the game online at all.

Apparently anyone who enjoys Fromsoft games is a troll? I believe history disagrees with you. Enjoy your 60$ loading screen soon, boy.
