Text version:
It's time to take stock of the past 2016. Especially for Coop-Land users, our editorial staff, as it happens from year to year, has prepared the top cooperative games with a focus on. Plus a couple of bonus games for our taste.
10th place
Opens our golden parade, leaving behind many equally high-quality games. Created by an American indie studio and inspired by the hardcore series, the game offers an original take on genres.
From the outside, minimalistic and even light, the game is overly complex, which is revealed during the gameplay. Enemies have a lot of health, and the hero knows how to lose all accumulated things when he dies. The game is painted by the proposed co-op for four people, which tends to complicate the gameplay with an increase in the squad.
For a pleasant visual style and deceptive appearance, he gets what he deserves tenth place among the best co-op games of 2016.
9th place
The co-op mode seems to be created for show and any individual characteristics does not carry with it. It is presented in the form of a joint passage of minor missions such as capture or hacking, and this is only for two people. It is worth noting that in such a rich setting it would be possible to make an interesting and versatile cooperative mode corresponding to the big name, but this opportunity was simply ignored.
For his eminent status and pleasant setting he receives ninth place.
8th place
The introduced cooperative mode will allow players to jointly engage in the construction of bases, the study of the game map and real survival in a zombie apocalypse. Despite the declared convenience, the network aspect has one unpleasant property: the promised maximum number of players - this is 16 people - can only be achieved by connecting to a common host of four groups that are in the mode.
But even with such conventions, it is a good cooperative game, for which he receives eighth place our rating.
7th place
The best farming simulator in existence has been highly acclaimed in the series: the fan base has grown, and the gameplay has become in demand among a wide range of fans of this genre. So, he confidently entered our top co-op games, leaving behind a dozen boring shooters and sandboxes.
A specific multiplayer mode, which is not based on any competitive nature, will allow ten players to create a collective farm: jointly rent land, engage in plowing and construction, get carried away with crop and livestock farming. It would seem that such a passive gameplay is only discouraging, but in fact, the massiveness of different functions gives the player great interest and motivation.
For the variety of in-game elements and some originality it takes seventh place our cooperative chart.
6th place
There are several cooperative modes in the game: one is a joint passage storyline, the second, called the Horde, invites players to fend off the constantly growing waves of the enemy. Both modes are tied to the team interaction of five people and are set to complicate the gameplay: the larger the squad, the smarter the enemy becomes.
For the consistency of the series and good multiplayer modes, it takes sixth place our rating.
5th place
The proposed co-op for four people fits perfectly with the plot narration, revealing in detail the characters and their characteristics - this creates motivation to conquer the cruel game world in friends company. Also of interest is the division of characters into classes, in the base state there are six of them. Customizable skills and long development branches provide the ability to customize your profile, which greatly hones cooperative interactions.
4th place
The visual style, characterized by accentuated lines and contrasts, perfectly complements the two-person co-op. The gameplay mode does not offer anything new: the players remain with the same range of abilities, and the enemies do not become smarter. But in the process, ways of joint interaction are revealed, implicit and hidden in single-player mode - they add variety and interest to the game.
Editor's Choice
Architecturally, the game does not have any complex elements, its principle is simple and clear. But the gameplay process is hardcore and even hostile towards the player, which is not at all a disadvantage in the cooperative passage. High speeds, tons of tasks and lack of time - all this combined makes the gameplay fun and even funny.
All the running around is harmoniously complemented by the locations and the conditions for their passage. On a large storyline map, the main places appear, from which even goosebumps run: the vents of volcanoes, pirate ships, lost islands, long highways, ice blocks - each location determines a certain number of conditions. So, at sea it feels sickly, and the ice is really slippery.
After playing many hours, our editorial office confidently declares: it is the dominant, but underestimated contender for the place of the best cooperative game of the past 2016.
3rd place
The sequel to the relatively disastrous Shadow Warrior of 2013, the game has literally hit the top-notch ratings through some gameplay and story transformations. So, the locations, the arsenal, the enemies and the character himself fell under a minor alteration: the map became larger and brighter, the weapons acquired new trash devices, the hellish ungrateful users clearly diversified and multiplied, and the hero learned new tricks, became more accurate and honed his black humor.
2nd place
The game world, locally divided into PvE and PvP zones, provides players with a huge foothold for cooperative and competitive gameplay. Actors - agents - regularly receive various kinds of assignments, but often it all comes down to a punitive sweep of a certain place. Whole factions of bandits, the so-called cleaners, mercenaries and similar assassins of various stripes, act as enemies.
But boring in words gameplay turns into a fun joint company with friends. With a small group, you can raid, explore locations, complete quests and, most fun, conquer the Dark Zone dominated by PvP. In such multiplayer operations, you can achieve maximum team cohesion, using not only high-tech gadgets to defeat other players, but also joint interaction tactics.
| Dark Souls 3 featured a bold, unquestioning and fan-bitter point in the Dark Souls storyline.
The gameplay has undergone some qualitative changes, to which fans of the series reacted positively. The game has become more dynamic - this was facilitated by the introduction of new dexterous classes, an increase in the speed of attack and movement, the development of an even greater dependence of the combat on the location. So, along with the dynamics, the difficulty increased: the bosses became hardened, their weapons sharpened, and the main character on the contrary, weakened.
But there is a way out of this seemingly hopeless situation, and it lies in the co-op, which is familiar to the series. The dark dungeons are illuminated with fiery clues, and the souls of the dead run from time to time in strange and dubious alleys, warning of the impending danger. The idyll is complemented by phantoms, who, at the call of an artifact, come to the rescue in an unequal battle with some bloodthirsty dragon. This kind of multiplayer experience remains emblematic and enjoyable for any Dark Souls fan.
Bonus: the ugly duckling
