LinkIn the latest issues of EGM, it's reported that online co-op isn't happening, yet. "We're not dumb," says Bungie's Frank O'Conner. "We know that people want it and we're trying to make it happen. I think the biggest problem for us for online co-op is that we have a situation where you can be in a Warthog with five troops, almost a mile away from the other player. That's a significant challenge. And there's lots of design things you could do to prevent that from happening, but they would make it not feel like Halo anymore. If we can make it happen in a way that works well, we will - and if it works badly, we won't.
I cant believe this, no online co-op! That was the selling point to me. After playing Gears co-op online I demand nothing less. (who cares what I demand though )
As far as it being technically feasible I believe its possible. Someone remind me if I'm wrong but in Halo:CE did the second player not get teleported closer to the first player whenever a check point was reached or the distance was too far between them? Halo:CE was playable through gamespy arcade when there was no such thing as Xbox live, you just connected the xbox to your lan and gamespy picked it up. You cant tell me that online co-op is not feasible now when it worked perfectly fine back then.
