Lets Go To Candy Mountain.....

You can only have 1 character per Xbox Live profile?

You get about 3 characters but only one save slot per character.

I am a little confused there. Do you mean you can only save one toon's progress?

DarkoM:

ThanatosAndNyx:

also, co-op has been buggy for people who join a childhood game with an adult character (they loose all there stuff in there adult savegame) and for me when we made a new gamesave for the second co-op player (same xbox) it erased my game and put theres in its place (although not specificaly a co-op issue, still an issue)

 

i am going to stay away from co-op entirely untill the next major patch.

The reason it "deleted" your other saved game is because you can only have one character per Xbox player profile. You need to make the other character on a 2nd profile. So basicly you just started a new game and it saved over your old one.

 

I get scarry. How many characters can i make with one live acoutnt? Hope more than 5.

That's a bit of a Learish move. You buy the game, you play it, and then you *** and moan about the Lionhead because they actually gave you something new in the Fable series, just missing the one measely thing that it seems you actually gave the biggest *** about.

I think if someone is gonna be so obnoxious as to throw something that so much work was put into back in the developer's face because the smallest thing is missing is such a *** move that you didn't deserve the game in the first place. Some kid is gonna open that copy of his game on Christmas and whether he mistreats his Xbox or game disc or whatever, he wouldn't be perioding out on the co-op. Tool.

those of you who keep telling us to "stop whining" really need to shutup.

Heres facts.

We WERE misled. Thats all there is to it and you cant deny it. They told us that Co op was one of the greatest innovations that they had. Would someone mind telling me what's innovative about it?

The system is a step backwards in co op. no matter what you say you cant disagree with that. The way that co op was presented was VERY unprofessional and misleading and thats why were upset.

Personally, we couldnt give a *** if your not buying the game for co op, or if you are fine with using some pre generated bullshit that has no relevance to our game or our character. When im told I get to bring my character into the game at any time with no menus screens, that doesnt insinuate me having to CHOOSE a henchmen.

again, no one is whining. We are shocked. can you expect us to not be? we were misled end of story.

We have a right to be. we have a right to critique games and developers. Did you not forget that you paid 60 f****ng dollars for this game? Its not like the developers are doing us some huge favor by gracing us with this game. They are making millions and millions of dollars off of it. im f****ng sick of people telling me to be grateful and stop throwing stuff at the developers face. If lionhead gave me this game for free, then you wouldnt hear a word out of me.

Jaycen2001:

Hey guys, thanks for the quick fix for the online multi co op. you know just taking a dump and selling it as a cool feature is kinda lame. the co op sucks hard in this game. you cant be your own character. and you cant freaken see anything because of the crappy (and I mean super crappy) camera. So, thanks for all the waiting for this cool game with this awesome feature. i hate to tell you but it blows......I dont accept your patch. take it back and give us what you promised. not some cheap knock off.

 

It never ceases to amaze how folks don't pay attention..or choose to have selective hearing if you will.

Lionhead never promised you would look like your own Hero, from the beginning we all knew we would just be a "Henchman" though the camera isn't perfect it sure beats the hell out of split screen. So, no they didn't promise we could look like our own Hero, try watching some of the co-op videos, you'll see everytime where the other player picks a pre made "Henchman"

Well, this is my first post here, so first off, hello. ^-^

But the reason I'm posting in the first place is that I just need to get something off my chest. To everyone who is whining about the coop not being how they wanted it to be: yes, some of the things PM said where misleading. Yes, it's a shame that you can't have your own hero in a friend's world.

But you know what? Get the hell over it. It's hardly the end of the world.

Coop is not the be all and end all of Fable 2. It's just a feature that Lionhead added to try and make you happy. It's too bad it didn't meet your expectations, but I hardly think they deserve being called bad programmers. Let's face it. They're better than any of us.

One last thing. Get the hell of Woody's back. It was a joke, now get over it.

I think this needs to be repeated.

The lack of respect by some of the members here is just astounding to me. Here's a news flash; you can be shocked, disappointed and angry and still handle the situation respectfully. Here's another newsflash; saying the developers released a pile of ***, or were lazy or suck at what they do is NOT handling the situation respectfully.

um obviously we all didnt know. Are you blind, or did you really oversee the amount of people shocked by this. i dont understand what the hell you people are trying to prove. obviously if so many people of the community are upset about co op then we WERE misled. sure there are features in games that people dont like, but we are talking mass numbers who feel like they have been cheated.

And your so right. it does beat the hell out of split screen. Do you realize what you just said? we are talking about XBOX LIVE. name one game shitty enough to have split screen on xbox live.

Co-op is not only a small feature to make us happy. In every Peter Molyneux video, he said that Fable 2 has some MAJOR features: co-op, drama and other ones...

*sigh* Yes, yes. You were mislead and we're all terribly sorry about that but the fact is, those of us who actually like Fable 2 are getting a bit tired of hearing your facts repeatedly.

It's a given that we were mislead, but why the heck would you get the game for free? If the game was centred around coop then maybe you're constant tirades would be less irritating, but the fact of the matter is that the game has absolutely nothing to do with coop.

Coop is just another optional feature. If you hate it that much, then just don't use it.

I agree with you.

And it was not only us... IGN said "if online co-op is like couch co-op, I am out of it"

Why do you keep beating around the bush? Thats what this forum is for. to discuss what we are happy with and unhappy with. If you dont want to hear us talk about it, then why are you even in this thread?

I never said we would get the game for free. Your reading comprehension skills are amazing. i said we are PAYING for the game therefore we have the right to critique the game and the developers behind the game.

Obviously if i hate co op im not going to use it. Thanks for that tip though.

There's no need to be so condescending. And I'm not beating around the bush. As for not wanting to hear what you people have to say... when did I ever say that? I'm sorry if I came across the wrong way. I'm just a little irritated that so many people are complaining so aggressively about something that is perhaps a little annoying, but not really that big a deal.

I never said you said we'd get the game for free. There's no need to be sarcastic, and yes, my readin comprehension is amazing... Not that it has anything to do with anything.

And I think that's enough on this particular train of thought.

Exactly my point, you've just proved rather well for me. The point that none of you bothered to actually read or really pay attention to what was being written/said.

I was referring to couch co-op as the camera is the same as on LIVE. The camera isn't really bad considering.

and that is why we have to make sure that these threads stay on top!!!! so they WILL fix this and i'm sure that they will. IT'S LIONHEAD!!!! TRUST ME THIS WILL GET FIXED. I'm sure that they have the option to do so but were preassured to realese the game as is due to marketing and sales.

THINK OF THE POSSIBILITIES AFTER THIS HAS BEEN FIXED. Everyone will already have a bad ass char so then you can really see a badd ass char

Agreed, there are so many people on these forums right now who didn't do the research and filled in the blank for themselves. 

They never said you get to play with your hero, you told yourselves that, now you're mad at Lionhead for it.  You would think you could, but you would be wrong.

Are you an ODST (fanboy)?

I have yet to touch the game but it was from what I read and saw in videos was that we(the players) could be running  around see a friends orb, invite em in the game and blam, my hero and his or her hero are running around together doing quests running towns etc. if he or she chooses to be and I, that could happen. This is my and I assume others interpretation of what the online co-op was presented as.

Instead it is some mediocre co-op where I can't even use my hero or heroine and I'm stuck with some premade henchman. Rather than us both be two equal heroes we have one hero and one hero's ***, where is the fun in that? Instead only my stats are loaded over and from what I hear not even my weapons or gear is.
Suggestion: make it so u and ur friend can be in the new campaign together rather than someone joining their friends just to kill an enemy then leave.

Aye, I'm with you 100% on that.

Nerd rage is funny

Fable 1 - No co-op.
Fable 2 - Co-op.

It's a big step forward and if the game does well I'm sure it will evolve.

Woody is a legend!  Perfect response.

Didnt do the research. Hmmmm.

"# If you go into another persons game as a guest the look of the character will be based off of your character's look. If you don't have a character of your own you'll have a generic pre-determined look to your hero. "

There, straight from the feature list of the official fable 2 forums. Would you mind explaining why no one cared to correct this error?

Holy ***!will you people just shut the *** up about the god damn coop!Atleast you f****ng have it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
