So how's Gearbox Studios' next tactical shooter shaping up? This preview (http://pc.boomtown.net/en_uk/articles/art.view.php?id=9181) takes a look at the new features like the close quarters combat and the fact that the urban setting makes it impossible to rely on simple flank-em tactics:

AN EXPANSION! To a mediocre on-rails, arcadey, linear WWII shooter? NO WAY!
WHERE CAN WE SIGN UP!

I don't understand squad shooters can be released without co-op. It seems like such a no brainer and easy option to add.

Step one, turn off AI on one squad member.
Step two, split screen in half.
Step three, allow controller 2 to influence actions of said squad member.

Yep, no coop killed this game for me from day one.
