I was wondering if there could be any kind of coop mode in the second penumbra. or mabye if you've ever played cod 3 the parts were the Germans would pounce at you and you would have to push a keys to escape. i was always so sacred about what would be around the corner but there was hardly anything mabye add some more scary scenes?
If you were scared at every corner, I guess the game design worked ;)

A Coop mode would be nice, but I think it would hardly fit into the concept.
Penumbra is about a scientist (played by you) who slowly explores a mine - alone.
It wouldn't be easy to fit a second character in there without breaking the game
i disagree, i think maybe putting someone else in there and adding alot more scripted events and chases would let you and your friend wet the floor together :D
The AI for that would be insanely complicated, likely impossible.
This is a single player game. Deal with it.

I agree, single player. Deal with it. Just not near as scary with a friend.
Actually there is a way to co-op. You and your friend take one VOIP program, (Skype or something else) start the game and play together telling each other what to do. I did this in the beginning of the game and I can tell you it wasn't as scary as it was when I played alone.

oh well, thats kinda a given... still like you said, not as scary. It should be maximium scary!! I still say, no co-op.
