I haven't tried that yet, some guy sent me a friend request while we were playing together but we didn't play again after. If the rules are similar to Dark Souls then you'll have to be within about 10 levels of whoever you're trying to co-op with. Invasions were a different story if I recall. Probably the best bet would be to get into a party with whoever you want to play with, set up in a remote area and try to connect to each other, because the first person to see your sign and try to summon you will. You'll see the person's name who you're trying to summon, so just go somewhere familiar to each.
Also I didn't realize there are 2 kinds of White Soap Stones, one that lets you do the smaller objectives that I mentioned before, and then the same full sized White Soap Stone as DS proper. Cracked Red Eye Orbs also return. Speaking of which I've played about 6 hours online today and haven't been invaded once. But when I was looking to summon, the signs were literally everywhere, I was running with 2 people within moments of trying each time.
Framerate is kinda iffy at times, but it definitely hits it's stride in areas and looks amazing.
There are so many little changes and tweaks they made to the formula that just WORK that I'm very impressed. The game is still flowing beautifully and moving at a quick pace, it's getting really tough and satisfying.
