4 local players plays usually on big screens of TV anyway. Camera works in same way for 2 players and 4 players only expand maximum view range only a bit, limitation to up 2 players doing their gear/skills/talents stuff could stay (in D3 we had turns in it), HP/MP bars, statuses and cooldowns would be like in D3 anyway, nothing brand new in it. Readibility of the game is the same in 4p local coop and 4p online coop. Party size of 4 was confirmed, UI for 2 local players changing their gear/skills/talents at the same time on same screen was confirmed, nothing was said about 3-4 player local coop limitation and for every player it was something natural that it will take place, because.

I track every official info about D4 from its announcement and it was never a statement that only 2 players in local coop will be possible. In every article I saw that came out it only ever spoke about there being 2 players in local co-op They have only ever made reference to 2 people in couch co-op never any more than that. I’m not talking about Diablo 3 I’m talking about 4. Wut? Diablo 3 was always 4 player couch coop and as Backero said, it's very disappointing. It was always 2 player on same couch co-op. Playing together in 4-player squad was my best experience ever and I even wanted to buy new gen console for that and now I feel very angry and this one thing probably will make me not buying this game at all. Why designing game and its UI for local coop when you allow it to only 2 players.
