1. Co-op Mode Implementation Proposal: Allow two players to explore Overworld together. Objectives: Promote cooperative gameplay. Enhance the game experience by sharing missions and farming Illuvials and resources. 2. Gas Mechanics Issue: How would the gas cost be split in co-op mode? Solution: Charge both players the same amount of gas to maintain balance. Benefits: Ensures both players are on equal footing when it comes to gas resource consumption. 3. Illuvial Quantity Issue: Would the number of Illuvials on the map be affected? Solution: Keep the same number of Illuvials, but when encountering one, each player would fight in separate arenas with the same Illuvial, but with different stats. Example: If both players find a Dark Holo, they would battle it separately in their own arenas. Although not the same Illuvial, it would have different stats for each player. 4. Impact on Farming Speed Issue: Co-op mode could speed up the acquisition of Illuvials. Cons: Players might obtain more Illuvials in less time, potentially unbalancing the game. Solutions: Increase Difficulty: Toughen the Illuvials’ skin, making them harder to defeat, which would slow down farming. Fun and Efficiency: Even though farming might be faster, the gameplay experience would improve, making players run more races and use more gas. Balance: Despite running more races with a partner, they could end up capturing fewer Illuvials as they focus more on team efficiency. 5. Resource Gathering (Rocks and Essences) Issue: How would resource gathering be affected in co-op mode? Solution: Allow rocks and essences to be harvested twice instead of once, one for each player. Benefits: Maintains resource balance and ensures both players have equal access to them. 6. Encouraging Co-op Mode Proposal: Co-op mode should provide more benefits than solo play. Objective: Promote co-op gameplay by making it more fun, engaging, and rewarding, encouraging players to buy more gas and interact in teams.
