Creating a COOP Experience: Building Army of Two

Army of Two is the first next-gen game built from the ground up for online COOP. In this presentation we’ll explore the challenges of creating a game that is focused around pure COOP play. The presentation will discuss how EA Montreal dealt with these challenges, and created a game that has a unique spin, in a crowded shooter market.
