NightCoop Open Beta Brings Eight-Player Cyberpunk 2077 On October 24
A fan mod is offering shared-world campaign co-op with host-owned progress and majority-vote dialogue, a structure that sidesteps the save conflict that normally makes multiplayer mods messy.
Reporting from 1 source: Game Spark.
The open beta for NightCoop, a fan-made co-op mod for Cyberpunk 2077, starts October 24 at 12:00 a.m. Japan time. Up to eight players share one world tied to the host's save data, each controlling their own V. Quest progress, NPC life and death, and city state follow the host. Players vote on story choices, and the host can turn on PvP at any time. The mod needs the retail game on patch 2.31.
The mod ties the shared world to the host's save file: quest progress, NPC life and death, and the state of the city all follow what the host has done. Guests still bring their own V, with separate appearance, level, equipment, and cyberware, and they shop and visit ripperdocs on their own.
Story choices go to a majority vote of the players. Cutscenes play at the same time for everyone, but each V speaks in the voice of the player controlling them. Combat is shared too: enemies, gunfire, grenades, and deaths register for the whole group, and damage from any player counts. Hosts can raise difficulty by adding enemy skills rather than HP.
