Special Forces Mode is meant to be played over and over again. We don’t do co-op in our story because we're crafting a very specific experience and we don't want to ruin that by cramming co-op into it. We take the moments that work really well with co-op, we bring them out and we put them in Special Ops...It's about playing over and over again, getting a better time – you’ll have a time at the end of it – it's about challenging a friend going in on co-op and trying to beat it on veteran.
