Dark Souls 3

[Shemaforash]

Going out on a limb, I placed my order, paying 40€.
It has a friend list and/or Steam implementation, right?
Then I want all your identities ingame... I gonna ask for help probably... a lot...

Although, from what I saw in the videos, it doesn't seem to be that hard...

add me on steam xx, where did you order?

[Molly]

My Steam nick is Benkeii. You add me.
Checked your name and there were 2 and both looked weird.

Ordered at g2play.net...

As far as I know and judging by previous games, no. But you can summon your friend once you're ingame using a password or something like that.

Without SM restrictions not sure how they decided to go with coop.

from Wiki

Online or Multiplayer play is part of Dark Souls 3. Players are encouraged to summon and be summoned and experience the game with others. All known information about Online play will be added to this page.

Online Information
 

Servers will be dedicated
Online play is platform specific; no cross-platform play
Match making will be level-based again as well as take into account the upgrade level of a player's weapon.
Password Matching (as seen in Bloodborne Online) is a feature and disregards the aforementioned soul level and weapon upgrade level matchmaking in lieu of a normalizing adjustment to phantom attack power.
In addition to the basic online parameters listed below, Covenants also alter the multiplayer experience for players.
Phantoms have half their current estus when in a host's world.
Covenant signs cannot be swapped out when trying to connect to someone else's world.
Hosts, friendly phantoms, and hostile phantoms can get an estus use back if another hostile or friendly phantom dies.
 

Phantoms (Ghosts)
Other players will be shown in the game world as phantoms (ghosts). You cannot interact with phantoms, and they cannot interact with you. Use other phantoms as a guide to what may happen next in-game.

Bloodstains
Examine a blood stain left behind in a spot where another player died, and you'll view a replay of that player's death. Like with phantoms, you can use this as a guide to what may happen next.

Messages
The messages you can write in the main menu will be sent to other players. You'll also receive messages written by other players in your world. Messages can be rated. If other players rate your messages, you'll regain a little HP.

Soul Signs
Use a White Sign Soapstone to cast a soul sign, and that sign will be sent to other players' worlds. If you're summoned from the sign, you'll be transported to the summoner's world. Soul signs can be cast by anyone, whether living or undead, but you must have the power of the Lord of Cinder to summon other players.

It scales the player down to host soul level/weapon enhancement level

Tbh, I have no idea what all that Wiki stuff means...

Simple question:

Can I summon someone specifically to a place of my liking when I want to and will he/she be able to fight alongside me?

You can choose a PIN like in old version of cRPG and it will 'balance' you with the same PIN person, if any of you are high level it will reduce the damage

So selling the game as dedicated server is an actual thing they will deliver on or just the same marketing strategy used for DS2?

There's no fucking way the actual online is hosted on dedicated servers. It's still peer2peer, that is just marketing words for their matchmaking server, I'm guessing.

lol
Dedicated matchmaking server = dedicated server

That would be hardcore PR.
