Update v1.5.148559:

Added the ability to play in a Peer-to-Peer setting with others.  This is chosen from the map table by picking one the two coop options.

 

Host Coop (Friends only) opens a peer-to-peer server for invite only.

 

Host Coop (Public) opens a peer-to-peer server that can be joined by anyone looking for a coop game, including strangers.

 

Once you have started a coop game, enter the mission lobby as usual and you will find an option to invite a friend from there.  This will use the standard Steam invite system.  Friends who receive an invite simply need to accept it to be added to your game.

 

If you want to see public Coop games, click the new statue on the Map Table and it will show you if any public Coop servers are available to join.  You can join directly from this interface.

 

With these changes, we have also removed the ability to randomly matchmake for Coop.

 

We have also removed the wanted posters to adding friends' loop, since it is unnecessary with the new friends coop system.

 

We have made many fixes for SteamDeck which will make text larger and more readable.

 

A side benefit of these text changes is that players on non-steam-deck devices can run with the -pretendsteamdeck launch option to opt into larger text sizes.
