So thanks for clearing this up, now i want to know how is transition between offline and online game is done here? Hows progress saved? Can you play SP for a while, then open it up for friends only or everyone to join without restarting? can you go back to sp from mp? Does it has single progression for both modes or it stored separately? If you will join someones else game, will it override your progress or not? Setting own server still requires two copies of game, 2 pc, and doulbe space to play together, and most likely from different rooms, have you ever seen 2 pc standing together next to each other? That why split screen is needed so that too people can actually play together physically, next to each other, without extra expenses, without extra space, without extra pc and so on.

There is nothing consolish about split screen, i really hate all this "racism" when some PC gamers tries to bound gamepads, splitscreen and stuff like that to consoles, without realising that it works pretty well on pc, even better it would work same way as online co-op except that both playes using same PC and same display, and in case someone has 2 displayes local coop split screen could be split into 2 separate displays.Īs for progress, im not sure if this game allows to create profiles before you start game, but that would not be hard to patch in to create several profiles with survival progress for each, and then when coop session starts any of such profiles can be selected by another player, and the progress would be saved to both profiles.

Password protect it and you won't have any issues with people getting in. However, it is possible to set up your own server, so if your girlfriend gets the game as well you two can play together. With time and effort you should be able to accomplish whatever you want. Singleplayer is just the same thing as the online game. That's more a console "Couch Lan" sort of thing, there is no split screen in ARK.
