So you can take over the second character in another player's game but you are not able to save the progress because you're obviously playing with the host's character? That means that you can only play with your own characters if you always play with the same partner in co-op?
I hoped that there would be a co-op system like in Dead Island (if you know the game) where you can join a host's game with your own character and even save its progression in your own game.
Or did I get you wrong on the system?
