It's possible to play the whole game with your friends:

Goddamnit, why couldn't have this been released when me and my friend played through the game Sad

Oh well, the game was so fucking good that we looked past the dumb connectivity issues.

I havent tried that mod yet, but by the description it doesn't look like you could play whole game in coop. It doesn't change multiplayer mechanics, it just makes easier to connect to your friends. It's pretty painful experience to try to connect to specific people, because at least on PC there are numerous P2P pools and if both your partner and you aren't in the same you won't see summoning sign. It took me and my friend to summon each other up to 1 hour on numerous occasions , sometimes we even gave up.

You need to place your sign just once, wait until your friend can see it, he needs to access it once, and you only replace it after your friend got "summoning failed" message. Repeat that and it works after ~3 attempts and thats without the fix.. but then again, not many people know this and keep on spamming it..

Edit: Anyone between lvl 80-94 wanna pvp with me? Im lvl 86 on my last char and need to lvl up to 100 but i dont wanna do it again with complete strangers ..

yup had the same experience here but recently started using the connectivity fix.
it really does work as advertised and we can both start the game, place a summon sign and have it show up and work within 30 seconds 100% of the time. it's a godsend.

now for normal gameplay I understand and appreciate why dark souls coop works the way it works, but after playing through it so many times I don't mind some added convenience.

The original sold over 300k digital copies on PC, better PC support for the sequel is planned.

Also the demo they are showing was the PC version.

The way multiplayer works in dark souls is very unique and cool, its a way of always online (which is optional) that works and actually adds to the game in cool ways. It is not suited for Co-op the whole game at all but probably moddable for it on the PC.

Believe me I read and followed some tutorials on how to get it working properly. I admit sometimes it helped, but then it did not. It was just too random for us.

Omg this game is empty everyone is playing teh xbox version.. Waiting half an hour for someone to use your red/white signs or for the blue/red orbs to work.. not fun..
And when you finally invade someone he has 10 friends to help him out because the "master race" cant actually win on their own so they need to rely on ganking with friends or using hacks for unlimited divine blessings and such. Caught with their guard down and they alt+f4. what a freaking joke my last attempt at playing this game was.. Edit: also.. wrong thread.. yey..

Why not play as a hollow if you don't want to be invaded? Or offline if you want the minor stuff being human provides?

Yeah I played the game with an offline profile. A somewhat annoying disadvantage is that after reinstalling OS there was no way to use the saves left after finishing the game.

You can use the saves if you backup the xlive folder too, not just the savegames folder
