I know you've probably already had a lot of threads about this one but I don't understand why it can't be a thing. Sure you can use the argument "turns will take too long" or whatever argument. I'm just very dissapointed that it wasen't an option in the second game. You make a AAA strategy game with a really intriguing campaign with a ton of factions and lords but you only limit it to 2 people? You could've easily had 5 player campaigns in the first one and 4 player one's in this one at least. I just think it's a real shame that you limit it to 2, it's not like it's a lot of work to add a couple more players to the campaingn map but okay. You have a ton of people buying your game and enjoying it but then they have 1, 2 or even more people that can't join because it's limited to 2 players. Please do something about this. I really want to be able to enjoy this with all of my friends and play it like a grand scale head to head conquest like it was supposed to feel like. The game would also be much more intriguing to people that don't own it yet and thus lead to more sales. I hope that you'll allow us to play with more than 1 friend.
A dissapointed warhammer lover who would really like to be able to play with all his friends

being a rather niche feature doesn't help.
realistic speaking the number of people doing a MP coop campaign is rather low and more numbers don't make that more likely...
So yeah a feature that is probably technical difficult and won't be used by too many...
it isn't that suprising that CA has lay this one off isn't it.
Having said that, I get the desire and doing it once here would "unlock" it for the rest of TW series.
Who knows, maybe one of the "odd" FLC pictures is for 4 player coop...

1 · 1LikeI love TW multiplayer and dont play it ... you know why ... cause it takes to long of a time to find a proper match. same with multiplayer campaign ...
its only a niche cause the creators made it such and when i say niche i mean the whole TW multiplayer not campaign multiplayer ... all of my friends feel the same and i got 5 good friends who played TW games since the early 2000's.

0 · LikeI feel number people who play multiplayer campaigns is being massively underestimated by the majority of people who disagree.
I do not play Rome 2 on Warhammer single player anymore. I play every campaign coop with a choice of about six friends who own the same games. We constantly go on about how it'd be better if we could play in a huge 4+ player campaign, on Discord.
It's sad to see that the hugely detailed map of Britain will be confined to two players only, with mindless, predictable AI to fill in the gaps.
CA should be going about evolution here, not throwing out what is basically a glorified DLC for Atilla.
They tested the multiplayer campaign idea, sort of, with Hotseat in Med 2.
Then they released a beta for Empire, allowing for the first time two people to play the same campaign.
Here we are, all these years later, restricted to the same constraints. If only they had evolved the multiplayer campaign at the same pace they did with the battle engine.

0 · LikeI think a massive co-op like civ would be pretty fun, the way to fix turn times would be to have an option of near instantaneous movement make it so all turns happen at once unless at war(like Civ5).
Another thing is that all players being able to move their armies at the same time would be interesting as it would be like REAL time strategy overworld map and being able to move faster than the others can just be part of the game of skill.
I'm pretty sure a lot of players have more than just one friend who would like to do a campaign. 2 player campaign duels are kind of boring after a while, but imagine a 4 person FFA where each one makes a large faction, imagine the backstabbing and diplomacy that will happen if there could only be one victor.

0 · LikeIt would be so cool to be able to play more than 2 people in the campaign, not necessarily as coop or in the other mode, but it's just such a fleshed out world map, having all take their turn at the same time could certainly be something that could add a lot to the game.
I think it could be just as successful as CK2 or EU4, the replay-ability it would get if more people were able to play together on a map, and if they all took turns at the same time you wouldn't have to wait too long either. But if that poses a problem I know there are a lot of other options to do it. But I'm a bit sad to see that there haven't been done more with the multiplayer in terms of campaign, it's just such a huge potential going to waste, as I know there's so many among my friends who would love this kind of playstyle/mode.
(Mostly agree with Wombat, having the players be the AI and have the same choices with allies, so it starts out a somewhat ffa seem like the most fun, in terms of strategy as well as gameplay.)

Thanks for your time, good gaming to all!

0 · LikeGiving the options so you can choose a race but you wouldn't know who is playing which race so partnership would be purely game-driven?
The game could be saved on either one of the local PC's or on the cloud and returned to at a later date?
nad if you wanted to play out the battle, allow the other players to watch the battles, and if 1 of the players was in a long battle or multiple battles in a single turn, develop a mobile add-on for the steam app which would notify the players when the battles have been completed and the next turn is in play?

Battles: in 3D environment
campaign: in the browser
This is a simple solution, but you can complete it.
