Due to technical constraints the tether distance in co-op is 275m, but this shouldn't impact at all on the realism of the game, as in reality USMC 4 man fireteams are trained to stick together as a unit and support each other without becoming separated by too great a distance.
Also I can confirm that in SP the tether is not present and you can separate as far you'd like from your other fireteam members if you wish, though of course this is not recommended and will normally result in a quick death!

I just want to clarify to all, I believe Helios is talking about cooperative playing of the storyline/ storyline missions which is played by yourself and 3 AI (none tethered) or by You and upto 3 additional friends (tethered) within one fireteam as shown for the first time at GameCon Germany.
Here are a couple of screen stills from GameCon courtesy of the Gamestar video and you can clearly see the menu selection is for the Storyline which can be played in one of two ways, by yourself & 3 AI or by you and upto 3 other friends.
