No, what you're doing is starting a duplicate thread. That just makes even more work for the mods.
No Single Player offline Mode then?

Hyperbole troll.
I suspect your EVERYONE is a few people. Personally, offline play was not an issue for my backing but if you look at my previous post hopefully you can understand why people are upset about this since it was stated that it would be available from the beginning. When the servers die so goes the game.
Because I might want to play in an offline machine, perhalps? Probably because my internet sucks? Playing long after the servers are pullled offline? There are several explanations.
This is not about sympathy. I want this game to succeed and remain relevant for a long time. So far they are in the middle and need to push into a direction. Multiplayer is where the majority of the market is. Dropping offline mode, is a good first step, but they need to also drop solo online mode (at least the ability to switch at will from open) also, and just go serious about multiplayer and guild support.
Multiplayer and guild features is what will keep this game relevant for a long time. The shine will fade, the grind will suck, they neeeed multiplayer to keep it relevant and fun.
Sorry I thought you asked for a refund? Have I missed something?
But yes - double edged sword here.
Drop offline to concentrate on online - correct decision right now from their point of view.
But can they actually make it work?
Isn't repeating that line kinda self-fulfilling prophecy?
There are lot of online games living quite well, even if their development didn't turn out so rosy as first intentions by their devs.
FD can always roll out server software and hand it over to some fan organization in case they are leaving this game be. It's not like game has huge trade secrets in it.
I can see why they are upset, but money is the goal here. Why do you think they are releasing an unfinished game in 30 days for xmas? Money for FDEV shareholders! is why. You need to play by their rules, the money rule. Multiplayer = money.
Well that's the hope. For most...or some. Cant be absolute as I will be attacked for being slight absolute.
Unfortunately we no longer get a say..... The development team have the vision and direction now.
you could look at it this way...
You can play a solo game with a realistic and evolving economy rather than a static economy, an organic galaxy...you'd get the benefits and all the other players are the worker bees making the game richer for you
Glass half full attitude!
Hope or not, this is what they deemed as possibility. Yes, I know since Friday no one believes FD word anymore. Still...
yep i asked, never said that i got it tho
and even then i ally want this game to backtrack on their offline policy...damn..even multi-billionaire microsoft redacted after a week...
Very true that a lot or some online games that are thriving. But there are also "a lot" or "some" that can't be played at all despite a loyal fanbase because the servers have gone dark.
I suspect by the time that the realization of failure comes, there won't be a rolling of any new code to the players that have supported the game.
I would think those going overboard will not believe. Those that aren't will be wary.
Sorry, I paid for OFFLINE because ONLINE gaming sucks, being beat up by deathmatching teenagers ain't my cup of tea!
Besides, I only play on the Oculus Rift and so far ONLINE introduces sickening stuttering.
I was simply hoping for a stable OFFLINE game with shooting, trading and exploring while rifting, is that to much too ask?
I paid nearly a hundred Aus dollars for this game.
I upgraded my PC for this game.
I bought an X52 for this game.
Not happy Jan!

I do not want to be playing the market against the hacks, bots and RMTers that flood all online games. That does not enrich my game at all.
