Fable II disc won't feature Online Co-op

Unfortunate that news like this has come out mere weeks before release, but Microsoft have stated on the Gamerscore Blog that the Fable II disc will not contain the online co-op mode that has fast become the reason to buy this anticipated game. Instead, Microsoft plans to get the game updated with this feature ASAP, the target being a week or so after release.

After going gold just days ago, the news is sure to disappoint people who were swayed to preorder because of this excellent feature. Either way, the game is coming out, and chances are, most will be happy to have the game in their possession, Online or no Online. Fable II is nearly here, fingers crossed it lives up to the hype.

Why not put it on the disc? Instead make people download it, and most likely pay additional for it. Stupid.

I think they just haven't finished with it, so they are going to apply an update via Xbox LIVE! once they are done with the final critique.

Hopefully we don't need to pay to be able to access the Xbox LIVE! functions of this game.

Thats what I heard as well, I mean who wants a really buggy online anyway. I seriously doubt they will make it pay for though. That would seriously effect the decision of later buyers to Fable II

I doubt that has anything to do with it, because there is still offline coop on the disc. So why would people who don't have live even care if it has no online capability to start with?
