Coop games where I can drive/fly around with my friends shooting out of the backseat
I love driving tanks in the battlefield series or flying aircraft with my friends sitting in the gunner seats and blowing shit up. They love it too. The combination of driving/maneuvering mechanics for me and spotting/shooting mechanics for them just really scratches an itch.
The examples mentioned above also reward good coordination between the different crew members.
Are there any coop games centered around this dynamic? In most pvp games the vehicle slots are super limited (for good reasons).
Here are some pvp games I know:
- Star Citizen: nice if it works, but shitty performance and bit of a grindy time sink
- Helldivers 2: The car is really fun to drive around, but it's super squishy and the weapon mounted on the back is meh because the game isn't designed around vehicles (understandably so)
- Battlefield 4: The attack helicopter is extremely fun, but because it's a pvp game it kinda sucks to fly an overpowered killing machine clobbering people.
- Battlefield 5: The ground vehicles are nice, but limited in numbers and you don't always get a spot.
- Arma/ Squad: Haven't tried yet, but same limitations all pvp games have apply.
It really seems like there aren't really any vehicle-centered coop games out there where you can just go out and slaughter a bunch of bots for fun.
