Apologies if this has been asked before - I have honestly tried searching!
I begun playing a couple of days ago and thought it might be fun to try the co-op mode with my wife. We've both created new (lvl 1) characters and got logged in on the ps4 fine. The problem is that the current story progression is at a quest my other 'solo' character is on. I have tried selecting the act and initial quest from the menu before launching the game, but get a message saying this will over write the other quest progress.
Ideally I would like to have two characters 'on the go' - one where I can progress through the story solo, and another that I play only in co-op with the wife and see the story start to finish separately too. Am I missing the obvious? Is this somethings that can be done?
Again, sorry if this is really noobish, but I'm struggling and any help you could offer would be much appreciated.
Go ahead and shift the quest down. I won't hurt your story progress with your solo character. If you entered the game on the lvl 1 characters thats the reason you are getting this message. you'll be fine and if it does mess with your solo character, it's unintentional and needs to be addressed with blizz (they can't recover anything for you but if it's a big deal they'll hotfix it) you'll only lose your progress up to the beginning of that particular quest anyway so, 5-10min of play that you've already done? trust me it'll be worth it to play with your wife ^_^. My wife and I love to play together. it's the only reason I picked the game up on PS4 (she hates CPU version). But I've rambled, the short version is; "Do it you'll be fine, Nothing will affect your solo character."
