Is there an Orthographic spelling for 'Co-Op'? What is the proper way of stating it in English? I've seen co-op, Co-op, Co-Op CO-OP and all those without hyphens (the hyphen is no doubt the proper dash if it is used).
If used in a title, where all words are capitalized, does that change the capitalization? For instant, if you made a book, 'Co-Op Deathmatches of Doom', and co-op or Co-op is correct, does it become Co-op or Co-Op? (or even CO-OP?)Paladin carvin (talk) 21:23, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
This is just the multiplayer part of F.E.A.R. and whilst it has team games I'm not aware of any specific co-op play, please enlighten me if I'm wrong.
DICE introduced a new co-op mode of play in patch 1.3 for Battlefield 2, should it be added to the list? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lorian (talk • contribs)
I was thinking of adding a couple screens to liven up the page, but I haven't run across anything yet. If someone has a good screen of co-op play, please add it. Thunderbrand 15:30, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
Do you think the history of video game co-op mode stems from JRR tolkien and classic table-top games ? "the roots of cooperative gaming are linked to the culture of languages". Where does this come from ? . Isnt Co-op mode just another mode in a video game which allows more than 1 person to play the single player game story ? andrewkeith80 03:35, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
I've suggested splitting of the list to a seperate article. Is this a good idea? Is there a better name than the one I've suggested? jaco♫plane 15:21, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Here's an idea I wanted to bounce of the community. What about organizing the list by genre? In each genre(FPS,beat em' up, sports, etc.) coop plays much differently. For example, there's a lot more interaction in a sports game than say a FPS. I think it would further enhance the article if the list of coop games took a per genre look. --Mitaphane 02:02, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
I've started categorizing the games; the list seems better served that way. Feel free to add the tag to applicable videogame pages. Frackintoaster 20:14, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
I don't get it, almost every time these days they create a coop feature for the console version of the game, (Doom 3, Sniper Elite) but do not include it for the PC version. The PC version certainly has adequate (if not superior) multiplayer capabilities so why is this?147.144.1.251 19:19, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
Anyone knows? --Artman40 18:01, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
What was the first game to have online co-op play? And when did it first become popular? Lots more detail wanted about the beginnings of online co-op play! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.107.192.17 (talk) 21:35, August 23, 2007 (UTC)
It seems that there is an large number of co-op feature games in recent years.I just mention some of the latest titles from last few years and (some of the titles are yet to be released) - The Scourge Project , Left 4 Dead , Call of duty 5 , Army of Two , Kane & Lynch: Dead Men , Gears of War
So , i would mention in this article that Cooperative gaming is gaining popularity again and has entered/is entering new era. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.191.39.41 (talk) 23:54, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

More co-op games were initially developed for the arcade and consoles than for computers. Like consoles, computers can use multiple gamepads through a USB hub, but many less expensive PC monitors are sized for a single user, and few games are designed specifically for a home theater PC.
I'm removing this paragraph for the following reasons:
1. I'd agree with the arcade part but I'm fairly sure it's not an entirely correct statement in regard to computers. The author probably had 'regular' today's PCs in mind when he/she wrote this, but there were so-called home computers (with quite a few two-player games developed for them) long before the popularity of the 2nd and 3rd generations of video game consoles. I'm not a first generation gamer so I will abstain from correcting the article myself, but I'm sure Commodore 64 had its "The Castles of Dr. Creep" and arcade-ported "Gauntlet" long before the advent of popular game consoles.
2. USB (Universal Serial Bus) was created in 1996 and became widespread much later, somewhere around 2000. Again, I'm not an expert in earlier technologies, but, I recall, before that D-subminiature (DE-9?) types of ports were used for interfacing joysticks and gamepads to PCs.
3. The size of the monitor is not the most important issue with development of co-op games for PCs. Firstly, many earlier games used 2D isomeric views that could easily be shareable between two players without splitting the screen. Secondly, computers received their networking capabilities considerably earlier than game consoles did. Many early users only had access to then expensive computers from their workplaces or educational institutes, where machines were often interconnected into office or college LANs. Therefore, it made a lot more sense to spend efforts on creating network-based multiplayer gametypes that weren't space limiting and allowed infinite number of players, not ones based on one machine and weren't really suitable for office environment. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rankiri (talk • contribs) 23:04, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
The image Image:Baldursgate1.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

Some multiplayer team games allow a group of people to play as the same player - control of the same units, shared resources, etc. This is called coop play (eg in Age of Kings and Hearts of Iron 2) in order to differentiate it from normal team play where players would just be teammates but with different resources and units. In this case "coop mode" isn't necessarily single player at all, but rather a variant of normal play (including competitive team games). I'd like to see this in the article Scott Ritchie (talk) 06:39, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
Article could do with an arcade section - the first co-op games started in arcades. Rip Off (1981) is usually called the first co-op game, but Fire Truck (1978) preceded it. Star Hawk (1977?) I think was earlier still. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.79.110.43 (talk) 19:46, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

Cooperative gameplay → Cooperative video game – The current article discussed here is very much about video games, and not about wider 'gameplay', and is occupying a generic term that is relevant to cooperative board games or game-theory concepts. Cooperative gameplay is an ambiguous term and should be a redirect targeting to a disambig (and for that purpose, I just created a disambig for Cooperative game). For said reasons I suggest that this article is renamed to cooperative video game (to mirror the existing clearly defined article on cooperative board game).
