It takes you 2 minutes to make split-screen local play and yet Halo Infinite can't even do that in the past 2 to 3 years. Also thank you for this, I'm a guy who loves couch co-op and I wasn't trying to trash on halo it's just we were promised split-screen and got 1 player only

well they don't use unreal, and would have to actually code the implementation from scratch in their own engine

@Vlyood It's the fact that they have to be my concern. We've had Halo running online split-screen 4-players since 2002. Didn't get popular until Halo 2 came out. (Popular as in people started talking about it more often and became a normal topic through gamers, magazines, etc.) Halo 3 had split-screen 4 players, including story mode, having like 8 players playing as elites, and 2 being the The master chief and the arbiter. Yet now it's nearly impossible to have games with split-screen. Couch Co-op adventure games are rare to see nowadays. I don't like having to set up a headset and play games with my little brother from the other room all the time. Every game is a 1 player solo, multiplayer grinder, online co-op for grinding, and I haven't seen any game that were a team playing online defeating mosters and beating the final boss that's not a Souls game. Some people just like to set across from each other and play as a team and beat the game, and that's it. I lost count on how many times I've played Resident Evil 5 alongside my little brother because to us, it was just that good. Sorry, I'm not angry at you. I'm just annoyed that they are coming out with games that clearly could have a 2-player option, but they don't. I mean the new Jujutsu kaisen video game (which looks like a Ps2 game but I'm not judging by first game in the series of games that'll follow because everyone will definitely talk about how the sequel to the game will look 10x better) is a 2v2 and 1v1 online ONLY fighting game! There was a Jojo's bizarre adventure game that had almost 50 characters to play as and team up with, with multiple character interactions and specials like the Ninja Storm series for Naruto. And it's a one player, 2-player online game. Fighting games being 1 player local is like everyone agreeing that the sky is a sandwich. No at home tournament's amongst friends and family? But we can play it in the other room, though, right? No wifi, bad internet connection, lag, that account hasn't played the game, so they don't have their favorite character unlocked. The new Dragon Ball Z budokai tenkaichi game (that's now being dubbed, Sparking Zero) is what long term fans have been wanting in a Toybox dragon ball z (toy box being able to play with whatever is in there like action figures that can be played your way with no handle bars). And I saw it said 1 Player Local... that's when I almost lost all hope and retired from buying new games, and I found out they said it's only there as a placeholder until they get the game finished to completion. So my hope is still standing. This has inspired me to make my own game with all the beliefs of what a game I want to play in it. May not be finished by 2026, but I will do push to see something come out of it!

@@yinpayofficial1063 Dude, comparing online co-op games and local multiplayer games is ridiculous. Replication in Unreal is a different ballpark than in an engine like slipspace, especially for an open world story based game like Halo Infinite. Optimization having to render up to 4 different screens IN AN OPEN WORLD if playing on a single console is a nightmare 343 clearly didn't see worth the time. Not every engine has a cookie cutter premade checkbox that makes local co-op work.

Hello, thank you for your video, I only have one question, I want to play on the same computer, but have player 1 play with the arrows while player 2 with a,s,d,w. I don't know how to assign those values to player two. Might you help me? ​
@TheSicklyOne
@TheSicklyOne 8 ай бұрын
You could try setting inputs separately. Like "up arrow" and "w" being 2 separately events. Then pass those values from the player controller to the 2 pawns u want to control using an interface rather than trying to possess both. Think of it like each set of inputs is a seperate remote control for a seperate rc car. There may be different ways to do it but something simple could be done by getting a reference to both controllable characters, then use interface calls on both when ever u press a key. Just make sure the events u are trying to call have 2 sets, like w = "player1forward" and up = "player2forward"

Hello, you know how when you set the number of players to 2 (and listen client) in the viewport player you get two windows, one for each player? I want it to be like that ingame, how would I do that in blueprints since I don't think just setting it to that will work after the game is packaged. I need this because I want one thing to be showed on one screen and another on the other screen in a dual monitor setup

Instead of getting mad I didn’t cover a specific feature, it would be more productive to ask me to make a video on the thing you’re having trouble doing. This negativity makes me NOT want to cover the topic. I legit record so many tutorials. It’s impossible to cover everything that everyone would ever want covered. Especially if they don’t tell me what they want until the video is over. Lol
