You're fucking yourself over with the 8+ player thing. Very few games will both be good AND accommodate for so many coop-only players.
Yeah, we have a ton of 4-player games available but invariably when we have a session 5+ people show up and someone has to be left out, which doesn't make anyone feel good. That high player count requirement is a bitch but necessary if it's going to be a long term hit with the gang.Sure, I dabble quite a bit in coop games so let me scratch my head...
Nevermind, for me coop is like 4 ppl max and even then that automatically pushes you into games like L4d, vermintide or galactic rock. 2 player coop is the sweet spot for variety.Support for at least 8 players
But for up to 8 ppl? And with the rest of your requirements? That really pushes you into just sandbox survival builders or mmos.
Sadly for this and L4D which are both good suggestions otherwise, some of our members are allergic to PvP of any kind, even against friends.I used to really enjoy playing the original Company of Heroes in 2v2 sessions with a friend. I'm quite sure it has support for 4v4, perhaps even more, so that's another option. The game lends itself to cooperation and mutual support, and it's well designed and visually appealing to boot. It can be quite tense at times, as you're trying to juggle holding your own side of the map with supporting your friend's side or infiltrating on several points simultaneously.

Thanks, but PvP is off the table with this group.stuff
Some very interesting ideas here. SWAT 4 looks like it might be perfect. The base game only allows 5 players but the expansion goes up to 10!stuff
not everyone in the group likes fighting their friends

Thanks Alienman - sadly we have tons of options for 4-player games already but it always causes problems since 5-6 of us usually are excited to play, sometimes more.
My crewMust be nice...Support for at least 8 players
Yeah, I said my crew, not your dumbass friends. But thank you for bumping the thread and I hope things get better for you.let me give you a taste of the 8-man crew experience
