Joining a multiplayer game should not be this complex
Pov: soul game
The game is not made for multiplayer. They allow you to quick summon your friends to help you through something in a little timeframe
@@jirasitamornthirakul8403 “quick” summon hah!!!
It's not that complex really.
@@jirasitamornthirakul8403 mf what about the invasions? FromSoft has an absolutely massive online community. Stop bullshitting
The reason why people are mad because as they were advertising the game they said you can explore the world with friends. We took that for face value. When indeed you can’t explore the world. Only summon friends to help with a boss. We understand how souls games have ALWAYS been but it seemed to me that they were advertising this game to be different with coop. When it’s not.
Whats to stop you from just exploring?
@@coolkidz4lyf a giant barrier in the world also on top of that you can't use your horse you can't use grace and when you die it kicks the others out of the game. Also only the host can access shops
@@coolkidz4lyf we just ran into the problem where we can’t explore certain open world areas because we both killed the “area boss”
Man that kinda sucks. My best friend really only bought the game because we were looking to play this game together the whole time. Now I feel bad for telling them something that wasn’t entirely true before seeing it myself.
*area boss
Thanks man. I’m usually soloing these games but my friend finally got on board. He’s going to need my help so he doesn’t quit hahaha
That’s how it is with me and my friend. He finally got me on board
Same, my friends never played a Souls game before so I gotta show him the awesomeness of these games.
Lol, same deal
Same for me! Helping a friend out now, he thinks the Mad Pumpkinhead in way point Ruins is too hard 🤣
Same hereeeee
I am going to answer my own questions since no One else has!
I bought two copies of Elden Ring on Playstation so my wife and I could co-op. This video was GREAT and got us connected easy! The co-op of the game is lame tho. Here are the reasons why.
1. If you co-op to fight a boss, once the host or boss is dead, ends the co-op.
2. If you co-op out in the open world, then it's just until one of you die and you have to summon them again, but it locks you out of boss dungeons.
So you need to know what "your" goal/s are.
The game is difficult and you just want a lil help? Great, call a friend, spend 20 minutes logging in together, lose the fight several times, spends several more times re-summoning each other, go find more materials needed to summon each other, kill the boss, apologize to your friend for the stress induced hateful things you said, then go buy a controller to replace the one you broke so you can continue playing next time.
If your goal was like mine, find a game to play "with" my wife... not happening. You die to much and can't spend the time re-summoning each other. Takes too long to learn the fights that way.
This game is NOT made to be a co-op game!
Pick another game as this game is 99% solo and ONLY co-op for when you KNOW someone that has progressed as far as you have and can help you in a particular fight.
Lastly, IMO DS fans needs to learn to be more understanding of others trying to play these games for the first time, answer thier questions, and help them find the love of these games that they have found!
I like this game but I don't want to be part of the fan base that just says things like "get gud" or "that's how all the From Software games are"... these are the laziest attempts to justify a game series as a great game series.
So I can’t summon my friend even though we are in the same spot on same system with the necessary items (finger, finger remedy) is there something else I’m missing here
This is a great summary dude! But you forgot to mention that in coop other player doesnt get items or exp. Such a shame these guys have so many years and titles behind them and still dont know how to make a decent coop mode. Shame shame shame.
I’m a die hard souls fan and I have always hated the co-op system it couldn’t be more complicated
Try don’t starve togheter my Wife loves it
Dude u did not have to buy 2 copies of the game if u buy the game digitally fro the ps store you can go to the settings and enable something called activate as primary console the all u have to do is one person have to play with the account that you bought the game with and the other on a diffrent console who has the account that bought the game and activated as primary console, can play with her own account on ps.
Hope I made sense if not just ask me anything
They should make the friend invite thing infinite… I don’t want to craft it every single time just to play with friends
What I did was made a habit of collecting all flowers when riding guy horse. I ended up with enough to craft 50 of them.
Agreed. However, from what I have heard this is always something difficult these particular game creators have implicated.
@Dan Calzacorta only boss battles. It will kick the finger out of the host world as soon as the boss is defeated.
@@AcrobotFPV that sucks…
Do you both get the runes for defeating the boss? Or only the host?
The dark souls game franchise is the only one that seems to punish you just for having friends and getting them to buy the game.
Also really weird seeing veterans defend this outdated system. Like I’d get it if it added some actual challenge to earning multiplayer keeping in spirit to the games but it’s just tedious busy work and clunky matchmaking mechanics. There’s definitely a more seamless intuitive way to pull this off in 2022.
@@stickyfingers5189 As a diehard souls-fan, I enjoyed the coop feature in the souls games. It was really tough to get into at first and is definitely gonna take you way longer to play through the game coop than solo. But I really can't defend that same coop system in Elden Ring, it's just so unfitting with the open world and all. Whenever you find a cool cave, ya gotta split up with your friend and resummon inside that cave because of fog walls. They definitely should have changed things up imo
My brother and I were trying to figure this out for an hour so you definitely deserve my sub, all we needed was the crafting kit
Thank you, you actually made this super simple.
Amazing video. The best explanation I’ve seen so far. It seems more difficult than it is tbh.
Advice for everyone. The flowers respawn every time you use a grace, so you can easily farm them.
Awesome, I’ve played DS games before but I’ve only ever played single player. First time I’ll be using the multiplayer option.
The process isn’t hard necessarily, just little tedious. I can understand the summon signs for summoning for boss fights but I think it would be a lot smarter to make the open world exploration they hyped up about different. Friends can be summoned through the channel without needing to make a sign, death doesn’t end sessions unless in a boss room. This in my eyes would make it more enjoyable for everyone all around.
Does the host must be emberd in elden ring?
bro this 2 minutes long video is the best idea ever, u r a true GOAT for not taking much of my time, here's comment and like for you, wish you the best
The only thing that bothers me is when you summon your friend, they take away half of their health and mana bottles and they can’t use the horse…
Exactly I thought i was alone why i aint it letting us have our full health
Honestly this was so helpful, definite sub/like
Awesome video, straight to the point, relaxed explanation. Subbed!
✅✅✅
Now that I finished the game completely alone it’s time to try online. I wanna help players who need help
wanna help me
you on ps5?
Me Too I am board just running around, I found just about everything to find now I just want to help players fight bosses. MrGenocide is the PS5 name see me HOLLA
Thank you very much now i can enjoy the game with my friend
thanks for very quick 2 min video.
Quick & easy thank you!
Quick and simple. Awesome.
Yas daddy so deep in me
Awesome, was confused on how to play with friends coop.
This is very helpful
helped a lot thanks
Thank you! Subbed now!
Awesome!
And this is why my friend and I use Seamless Co-op. Never have to worry about invasions every 30 seconds and we have access to everything.
How do you use seamless co op
@@parrymynutsSadly, it's a PC only mod that allows for a better CO-OP experience, if you're on console then you're outta luck
Life saver 🙌
I appreciate it alot!!!!
Me and my friend can pretty much go anywhere and do anything. But we also know how summoning works in darksouls so I suppose it's not as irritating for us as others here seem to think. It is needlessly complicated, but once you figure it out you can play with friends the whole way
No one joins your game and kills you in 1 second I am done it's bullshit garbage
@@Jasonbourne19741 That's fair I guess. Souls games always tend turn some people off
Really? I’ll need the tutorial on this lol I thought they could only help kill bosses and then thy return to their world
@@CM-hi4db typically, that's what summons are for. But nothing is stopping you from running around and doing whatever you want
@@MrCdog85 I'm pretty sure there is a giant barrier stopping you from going anywhere
This is NOT a multi-player game! NO it is NOT a Co-op game. And YES the developers lied when they said it was!
Yes it is, your friend can join your world and help you kill shit
@@michaellai536 oh, that is so cute.
Just stop
If it has multi-player, it's a multiplayer game. If they didn't want multiplayer, then it wouldn't be in there.
@@FunnyFavor So according to your logic anyone that drives a car is a Nascar driver.
@@Try2-Imagine Horrible comparison, but i get what you mean
I particularly don’t like the invasion or co op system in any souls game. It’s just a meme at this point.
thank you so much bro
Super quick and simple! Great video thank you!
I love these games but idc, they just need to make a simple join or invite option at this point.
Thanks bro
I wish they had an actual multiplayer so you could play with ur friends constantly
bro why is it so hard
I’ve watched this vid like 10 times and still can’t figure it out😅😂
Was actually gonna buy the game and suffer though with my friend but after this and reading some comments on how it works fuck that would have been cool though
Thank you
Need to be able to ride together 💔 can't wait for updates
"That's how its always been on souls" dafuq is this excuse? Souls wasn't open world before and keepign the same coop mechanics is just straight up dumb imo. Even the ads/trailers emphasize a bit more on coop exploration compared to previous souls games. Then these vets/elitists give us the "tHat's HoW iTs alWays BeEn" mentality.
thanks :D
I've been trying this with someone
we have the same password and we both know where the summon sign is and we both used the finger remedy but I cant see their signs and they cant see mine
Same thing happening to me idk what to do anymore. Me and my friend have been playing no issues together until recently I can’t find his summoning sign and he can’t find mine. We tried restarting the console a lot of times playing with the password and nothing.
Double check that your summon sign is enabled in the settings
thank you
For those asking, hopefully this also saves alot of other people in the future from asking too, Co-op is not a permanent thing in a Soulsborne game.
You putting down a summon sign/picking up a summon sign is essentially a short term contract. The end clause of the contract has 3 standard ways it ends: 1 host dies. 2 helper dies. 3 boss/invader is killed. Obviously, item 3 is the end goal, and if that is accomplished, the game moves all those involved back to their respective worlds, many (insert currency name) richer for the helpers, and the summoner having gotten past that pesky foe in the way.
Now, in previous titles, and possibly this one, there was a mechanic of level differences interfering with summons, that way an endgame player couldn't just squish the second boss of the story for their friend, or something to that effect. I haven't seen confirmation of that system existing yet, and hopefully it's not in Elden Ring.
With Elden Ring, there is a large chance that you can explore all over with your friends, though it does seem to be closely linked to a boss being nearby. If so, that limits the summon area to near bosses/dungeons. The game has mentioned fog walls to rope off people from just exploring everywhere. And yes, that runs counter to most games Co-op/Multi-player logic, but the struggle of a Soulsborne game is on your shoulders alone, not a collective.
The game does have a new feature, of casting summon signs to nearby pools, which is a pretty neat mechanic, but not fully sure on its efficacy yet. Hopefully, they do away with the finger dip being how you see other people's signs.
If anyone has anything to add, to ask, or to correct with what I have said, feel free to comment. Keep it civil.
This is very informative and helpful. Thank you
Me who Immediately killed santa after seeing him:
So when you and a friend do co-op, is it temporary? Like just for a boss fight or until you decide to stop playing? And can you summon a friend anywhere or only at certain locations? Thank you!
And when host dies.. 120 for this
did you figure out?
@@_Sawb I can summon my kid but not my friend. It makes no sense.
Any answer?
This game sucks I'm trying to play with my friend but when we kill a boss he just gets kicked so dumb game sucks
Bro, deadass have to perform a ritual to summon Satan just to send an invite as if games haven't done that for the past 20 years.
Is there shared progression when playing with friends? Or do you get to keep runes or items you find while playing with them etc?
You wanna play?
As a newcomer to the series I must say spectacular game. 10/10 game, but despite it being incredibly well designed in most areas I would ultimately give this game a 5/10 based off the multiplayer alone. This multiplayer system is stupid everything about it is frustrating there’s too many steps the unpredictability of the online to make matters even worse they decide to restrict you to the point you ask yourself what is the fucking point of playing with friends. Too much repetition in the process of reentering in the game with a friend. Even with bosses some bosses have 2 phases so if you die you go back to your world.
Bro just get good
@@colbygmusic ur probably a lvl 50
@@colbygmusic what does getting good have to do with not being able to fast travel or not being able to use torrent and not being able to rest at grace? the multiplayer is literally bad. just because youre a fanboy doesnt mean the game cant have bad things about it. thankfully we have modders doing what a rich triple A studio cant LMFAO
@@tonithetiger6226 dude just get good
@@colbygmusic tell that to the coders of elden ring. they are getting paid to do what modders are doing for free. ahahahaha all you can reply with js "get good" too its only proving my point that the fanboys are floor level iq
I hope they give us dedicated servers with coop progression
How long does the Furlcalling Finger Remedy last? And what about invasions, can you get invaded without using it?
It lasts as long as you want, as long as you stay in the area of the summon and no you can't get invaded unless you co-op
Must you do this everytime you play together even if its on the same world as before
As you all know I'm new to elden ring, I drove and got it at GameStop, are their any tips and pointers I should know before I hear off on this mystical journey?
Now I just need friends
The co op and the camera are the only reasons why the game will never be more than a 7/10 for me.
Not being able to play co-op easily is why I'm not going to be purchasing it. Dark Souls 3 had an awful system that even after doing it right didn't work half the time. It doesn't make the game "more hardcore" in any way, it just makes it less fun.
first time playing a game from this publisher, i can't believe it's not truly multiplayer and while I bought the game, doubt I'll be playing in a few months. this will get old.
@@jr23640 when they said its a co op game they lied the co op its just to get help for like 20minutes for bosses or difficult areas,still games like this are made to be played solo like dark souls
@@herochamp526 yeah me and my friends played the game for like a week or 2 and haven’t touched it since. Who plays video games solo? So depressing lol
Hey I got a question about this that I need answers asap
Is it possible for PlayStation 5 players to play with PlayStation 4 players
The fact that u have to resummon them whenever someone dies is so annoying 😊
Ok we DEFINETELY did it right but it just doesnt work
Is there a way to keep them in your session or do they have to keep rejoining after we die
Thx
Idky but I believe I’ve followed all these and I still can’t see my friend’s “tarnished’s furled finger”
Going to try this for the first time today with my kid. We will both be starting new games from scratch. A few Questions: As we explore together in co-op in the open world, do we both get loot, building materials and runes ?
I been at it for hours. I can't see any gold summons.
i have a question. my friend and i want to do co-op and we did every step in the video but my friend says it wont let them use the furlcalling finger remedy, how do they fix that
My friend doesnt have that enabled even after he picked the stuff up
How do you summon strangers though? I don't have any online friends because I never signed up for PS+ or whatever it's called. I just bought one month subscription for the sole purposes of getting by the cleanrot knight at abandoned cave, but I can't figure out how to summon someone. There is no summoning pool in the cave. FYI this is the cave where you get the golden scarab.
Another way to get this fingers are beating bosses over and over😊
Im having the problem when i place the summon sign ill get a message that someone is summoning me but nothing happens? Do i have to use an item or something to accept the summoning?
Im thinking about buying elden ring with mu friend if i make a lobby with him and he just started does he also get stuff from my world or would he have to progress his world first?
I don’t like how I get nerfed when joining my friends world
Why can't you just invite a friend from xbox or just join their game. Every other game has this ability
elden not like every other game
souls like games have never had an "invite" button
If you could at least tell when your friends put down a sign would be nice. The only reason I can think of for why they do this is to be different. I'd rather not have the option than have it half ass work. From software also said coop would be different than dark souls and it's exactly the same
@@bruhmoment2918 then it shouldn't be call coop
@@gavinwevv4664 you're a shill
It's so hard to summon people to help, I can't find anyone ever for the crystal cave:/
So do i have to be in the same place together in different games?
The phat roll hurt my eyes
Figured it out. Dont set a password unless yeah. Someone place gold sign. After that, other person uses the compass thing to look for gold signs
Really upset with how the multiplayer works tbh. If someone dies you auto go to your own world. If you beat a major boss same thing. Honestly disappointing. I will still give them a chance to fix this issue before it affects me.
That how it alway work in souls
I wouldn't say it was an issue, I think maybe a bit more freedom with the co-op but the main challenge for me as someone completely new to this type of game is being on my own and figuring it all out.
its always been like this for every souls like, and theyre never changing it
@@BigCheeseTV that how us vet started too they kept everything from dark souls
It's always been this way with games like this....
Please answer, can you play this game with friends on the XBOX platform?
What if the merchant is no longer there... 👀
Can I play online with a PS Essential subscription ?? Not a PS+ , the cheaper version ?? TY
Hey, if you die you have to redo all this right? I mean it's a hard game. At least they could stay in the same world when they died 😅
My friend killed the merchant at the beginning and the other merchants don’t sell the finger remedy is there another way to get it?!?
After their friends go off-line they try salmon and people online and I forget to turn off the password that’s real funny
does this have to be the same server
I have the 3 items, and i did everything to open the multiplayer, but it did not work. I watched mannny vids on CZcams, but nothing worked 😢 i also changed the system settings into play online and enabled. What's wrong with it!?? Im frustrated. 😩
my friend and I tried to use a code but we couldn't see each other's summon signs?
When I use the finger remedy it doesn’t put anything on the ground why is that? There isn’t a summon sign
Same
Sameee
Okay cool! So how do I make friends to do this with?
Does anyone know if there is a way to send friend requests to ppl you co op with randomly?
keep in mind, the moment you start a room, a different player comes to harras and kill you, that's this game online in a nutshell :)
I still need help. We've both done this and still can't see either messages. I've heard people say if the area boss is killed you can't join but that's not the case. We've joined each other's game before but all of a sudden it stopped worrking.. please help:/
when you summon a friend, are you guys locked in a specific area?
How many players in coop are allowed?
I built the thing but I still can’t play multiplayer
Donkey voice
“But I don’t have any friends”
My friend just started and we been trying for an hour I don’t know what we’re doing wrong
can u co op across platforms like pc and xbox or not
I have been trying to do this but my friends summoning sign doesn’t appear and we have the same code and the system settings are online and on enable summoning, not sure what is going on, any suggestions?
Same s:(₽&&it
@@Wutaga what?
You have to us a curled finger remedy around the area they placed it to see it. With a certain cookbook your able to craft it with a crafting kit from the first merchant at Ellis church
You might have already beat the area boss

but when the player that joined died we need to do all this again right?
