Both my husband and I were excited for the split screen (so many games have done away with local split screen =( not everyone can afford two XB1's), looking forward to tackling various tasks and misadventures. However, we ended up kind of disappointed; gameplay was laggy, sound cut in and out, items would pop in and out of inventory.... but the biggest let down was that you couldn't really be more than 200m from who ever was hosting else the world fell apart and you couldn't do anything, not even move. 200m might look like a lot when written, but in the game it's not at all. To try to put it into a bit of perspective, there's a hill in the center of Herbivore Island, if the host stood on one side of it while the visitor stood on the other the visitor would get a red screen and the world would fall apart. Mabey this wouldn't be a big deal for some people, but for the way my husband and I play together it's kind of a game breaker. Hopefully this is something that will be addressed and fixed in future patches/updates.
Sorry if this multi-posts, was having issues
