I have been pausing this game for some time now, and the first thing that angered me right away was the fact, that you need at least TWO ppl now before you are able to start a simple Bot Coop-Match. This won't make any sense to me, as I don't find a single party (probability 2/10 matches). This means, I am either forced to wait forever (already took me about 3-5 minutes before another player joined) or pick another game mode. Both options restrict my will to play some rounds instantly- which HAS been possible back then. Please withdraw this stupid change asap!!!
Why do you need at least 2 ppl to start a COOP-DM now?

I think this is a bug. Several people have reported this and I have had it happen to me once.
But all other times I have been able to start one solo.
Now, the servers may actually have changed, but this may be related to syncing errors similar to how some PvP servers lock up if someone isn't syncing with the storm servers. Attempt a disconnect command by bringing up the console (F5 or F6 for single-line) and typing disconnect.
Then try again. This solves my lock issue on PvP servers (and it's usually me, god knows why).

I AGREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Doing solo co-op tdm used to be my ritual warm-up, and it's the best way to try out new mechs or configs. I've been gravely disappointed ever since this feature was removed (If it was, indeed, removed).
I was especially pissed about it today; I Had to play on EU servers just to get into a game, with crappy ping, and it still took me 5-10 mins just to find one with someone else.
SWITCH IT BACK PLS!!!
Or, at least give us a valid reason why this was changed (if, indeed, it was). Because it seems like it was randomly taken from us one day, without explanation (That I ever saw). LIKE A THIEF IN THE NIGHT.

omg this
A band-aid so far has been private servers since you can force them to start even when solo.

This is why some people have a second account to run on another low spec machine, just to login and get the Coop tdm to start.
I agree, allow it to start with 1.
Coop TDM was where I used to wait for other players in Oceanic, and now if they see no non-empty servers they all leave to asia.
It was a great waiting room with stuff to shoot at, and it was good to warm up and get the daily.

I sent a support ticket few days ago. I hope to have news soon.
Here is the answer :
I tracked down why. The original systems didn't allow for it, but the newer stuff had it in there. I've made some changes so that the next time we deploy gameservers you will be able to start with just one player. I'm planning on doing that tomorrow afternoon Pacific time.
so we just have to wait a little ![]()
Thx !

Many casual players want a place to learn the basics and get a feel for things,and being stomped by veteran asshats who trash talk is not great for new pilots. Coop TDM is another place where you can take a player being mentored to test what they have learned in a less frantic environment than a not-so-well-balanced TDM.
Bot fights are the gateway drug of Hawken for new pilots.
...Soon enough they will be Hawken crack-wh***s who will resort to degrading themselves to get a hit of 2K lobby.

Also I was a little upset about it.
To me that always want to play one or two quick matches before going to work, always used the COOP for this. To start the day.
And now with this option really sometimes I can not do it and I'm without my morning training.
I hope this is resolved.

So can anybody confirm the issue has been solved with the ongoing event? I haven't had the time to try the game yet.
