Talk:Co-op

"See also" link to Familiar page
I totally thought Sister Maggy was missing on this page, but apparently that's a "familiar". Maybe it would be good to have a big "See also the Familiars, some of whom look similar to babies." at the top of the page? --82.136.210.153 22:20, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Sounds great to me. I made the same mistake at least once when I clicked on "Babies" on the main page content box. I was looking for Familiars as well. Also, I renamed this talk section to be a bit more descriptive. Hope that's okay. -- Muhgoof (talk) 22:30, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

Puff Baby
Puff baby is a reference to Kirby. The puff of air that Kirby does in the games when you inflate to fly and then breathe out again, thus the baby looking like it has its cheeks puffed out.

Hebereke Babies
Cool Ghost Baby, Gills Baby, Blue Hat Baby and Catsuit Baby are cameo appearances of characters from a fun little metroidvania-style adventure game for the NES that Edmund must have been a fan of, Hebereke (Ufouria in Europe); Sukezaemon (Shades), Jennifer (Gil), Hebe (Bop-Louie) and O-Chan (Freeon-Leon) respectively.

Edit: Props for spotting Hebereke/U4ia. Memories!

Edit: Should this page be unl.ocked? There are too many references for the mods alone to spot.


 * The page isn't admin-only, you'll be able to edit the page if you make an account. --Exschwasion (talk) 01:34, 22 November 2015 (UTC)

The Keeper
Since the keeper doesn't have traditional hearts, do co-op babies work differently for him? -- DrPumpkinz

Answer: Yes, they do. Babies have one heart upon spawning. The keeper can get the lost heart with any hp up. Notable synergies are: Using a baby to keep a 3rd heart for a devil deal and having an -o- baby once you get a hp-up.

We should try to find them during Co-op and find out what do they do. I've seen Mort Baby in action, along with shooting tears, it has the Rotten Baby effect, I hope someone sees this and adds the info of Mort Baby.

Do Co-op babies just left Isaac's damage and tears stats? --Chainsawsforhands (talk) 06:35, 7 May 2017 (UTC)

Rerolled glitch looking baby
Was looking through old Kate and NL co-op afterbirth runs, and I noticed that activating d100 rerolls babies into a glitchy looking Isaac's head that sometime turns into normal body without a head.

Special Baby Menu Bug
I found a bug where using the keyboard to make a co-op baby doesn't bring up the special baby menu unless you press the join button and a fire button together frame-perfectly. That's probably a bug. Using a controller seems to work completely fine. Can anyone confirm if this happens on PS4 and Switch? Just edit the bugs section if it's bugged on those systems too.

Question
What does cracked baby even do? Could somebody please fill it in? ~jackobox
 * Probably not easy to figure out if it's still not there. Missing information is something you can fill in yourself, but make sure to pay attention to the editing guidelines if you do; added info should be verifiable. --Frionil (talk) 09:30, 7 March 2020 (UTC)

Thirteenth Baby
I apparently can't edit this page, but the Thirteenth Baby is a reference to the spaceship from Monolith by Team D13

#352 "Critter Baby"
Given it's appearance and proximity to the other rubber-hose era characters, most likely a reference to Bimbo the Dog (name could still be reference to Critters)

Repentence Co-Op
Are any pages regarding strategy/synergy/different mechanics for Repentence co-op going to be added, or is that going to be its own section on each character's page later on? Me and a friend have been playing (through a client that lets me connect to his PC since it's local) since near to when the DLC came out, so we have a lot of experience in how the game differs in some ways, and we are still discovering new behaviors for items with multiple players (e.g. Yum Heart will heal other players for one half red heart when used by its owner.)

Split Co-op page into "Co-op babies" and "Co-op (Repentance)"?
Right now pretty much the only info listed on the Co-op page is for co-op babies, and I think in the long run, trying to add new info will end up muddling the page, making it really disorganized and confusing for people specifically trying to search up how Repentance co-op works only to be met with tons of info about co-op babies in between each bit of Repentance co-op info, and perhaps vice versa as well.

Can someone try to make a dedicated page for Repentance co-op specifically?

-Tarluk

I can try to put something together, but it might take some time. Is there anyone good at creating pages who can help me for formatting? I may be able to provide commentary and synergies between characters, or gameplay strats, but page creation on its own is beyond me.

--QueueKaye (talk) 07:14, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

I've made a Repentance Co-Op page that can be found here Repentance_Co-Op

It's extremely barebones at the moment and only contains the original characters. The formatting needs work as I'm still becoming accustomed with the website. If you have any strategy notes for characters, item interactions that only occur in Co-Op (like Yum Heart heals), etc. please help contribute. I'll be updating it over the weekend to include the rest of the cast and improve the presentation, but I'd appreciate all the help that could be found.
