We just got word that while we will be able to play the single player and local co-op on day one, they are still making tweaks to the online co-op. Don't worry, it is definitely still coming. Seriously, as a gamer I'm glad they're taking the time to make it right instead of just rushing it out the door. Lionhead and Microsoft Game Studios are looking to get the update out within the first week of launch in North America, so again, don't think this is going to be a decade long wait. I suggest you do what I'm going to do - go play some more pub games and get a ton of gold to buy cool stuff as you start the single player or local co-op game.

Having said that, as you are playing through the game, you will still be able to see your friends as glowing orbs as well as chat and trade with them.

As soon as I get information for other regions and the date that the update is expected, I'll let you know.

PS - Lionhead sends a huge thank you to all of the Fable fans, and asks for your patience and understanding. This is their most ambitious game to date and can't wait to get you playing their vision as soon as they possibly can.

I have a feeling this may be purposely set by Molyneux, he may want the online co-op to be global, and the US does get it first, "within the first week" is what gave me my speculation.

A lot of people would rather wait one more week than have the game without co-op, what idiots xD

Yeah, it's not gonna bother me, I'd rather start off without anyone on my world in the beginning, maybe when I'm further in the game..

Completely agree =]

It would also give people time to get used to the game, before rushing into co-op as some people do ...:rolleyes:

Co-op is just a bonus, they could of not given us co-op at all, it's good that they did but it's just something extra, not a key element to the game
