COOP hut modes ( pls add some for people with disabilities )

My nephew absolutely loves HUT but he is disabled and can't play the content by himself. There are no COOP modes in the "offline" aspect of hut, i can't help him with cup chase or wild card, etc. I only see 1 couch play option for wild card, and that's not an option for us. People with disabilities are a real thing, and every other gaming companies recognizes these issues except for EA NHL. Every other sports game has these options of playing COOP ultimate team except NHL. 

Wild card could be online/offline coop

Cup chase 100% can be online coop, but no option to invite.

There's zero shot at him completing any of the difficult moments, so him being able to invite me to help him would be good.

back in the day "rivals" were COOP, id have him lock in the right D and id play the rest of the team, those were the best days of HUT. I think rivals should bring that back, coop, and 1 person can position lock and the other plays the rest of the team ( this would help disabled people like my nephew who has a hard time tracking a lot of things at once. ). 

Champions are fine, doesn't need COOP as that's the competitive game mode in HUT, everything else tho is for fun, so why not allow everybody to have fun. 

Thanks.

    Hi there. I will relay this to the team. Thanks so much for the feedback!

    Can you at least add the co-op filter back to rivals? We have talked about this already several times before. Like you mentioned it's only addon to matcmaking filter as it used to be in earlier versions. No locked players, there is reason behind that and I understand that. Just open positions. If that is the reason that people are whining about because it's unfair somehow, then just use the filter and disable co-op. How difficult this can be?

    Nothing is as easy as it seems. Chances are good this would require a significant amount of work. The best I can do as let the team know it's being requested. You're not the first. There have been some others. When we had co-op in HUT previously, there were a lot of complaints about the fairness of it. I wouldn't mind if it were added back as long as you could filter out co-op teams.

  • Just like you said, players can use the filter. How difficult that can be? Players are only using that same matchmaking filter where they choose ping options? Default can be co-op disabled if that's the case. If it have been there why to take it off? It's a choice not mandatory one. I don't see the reason for this. Just let them know with argument. Same for CC, it would be fun to play with friend and even just one player get progress etc. This game shouldn't leave these things out. Back in the days it was fun to play this game but not anymore because all the fun have been removed.
