Syndicate's new co-op trailer has some heat
This latest trailer for Syndicate is pretty damn exciting. It's a sparse overview of the title's cooperative mode which lets you team up with three other operatives on assignments deemed to difficult for a lone agent to accomplish. We'll be getting a closer look at the mode very soon, but this has sufficiently wet my appetite. I love the lack of pretense involved in corporate espionage as seen in cyberpunk settings like this one. It feels so much more honest for a company to send in its private security forces and just take the thing it wants from a competitor rather than try to bury them under legal red tape or acquire them in a fiscally hostile takeover.

Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)Good to see a game that recognises the future will NOT be dominated by the old tired "Oh my god! Everything future tech = JAPAN!" (E.g the Chinese characters in the Cryogenics scene is Chinese if your wondering) - Its more "realistic" ideals / situation I guess.
So, the co-op in this is sounding a little like Payday: The Heist? "Many missions require only a solo agent. However, some will demand an elite team consisting of only the most badass names the Syndicate world has to offer."
I guess Bruce Sexington was on vacation or something. this game looks ok but asura's wrath and SSX win february. darkness 2 falls by the wayside too //tear Could be fun. Hope it finds its market; squad-type co-op needs a quality game besides the Left 4 Dead franchise.
