Mp only?

Is this game mp only?

Also some questions.
Do i have to be online 24/7
Will my saves be in a folder so i can back them up?
In singleplayer will it be like mp without players? Or will it be something else?

Thanks if you can answer!
 
There will be 3 modes that we already have - Open, Private group and Solo online. Solo online is vs AI only, however economy should be affected by other players and probably the character will be transferable between these modes. And there will be the 4th mode - Solo Offline, the character won't be transferable to other modes and probably the economy won't be affected by other players. But more details should be revealed closer to release.
 
I really hope that theres solo offline! I prefer singleplayer but please let me know if you know anything more i really want to know what offline mode will be like :)

Sometimes an internet connection can be down. I have to say, I do not like games that are totally internet dependent. I brought a well known game that required an internet connection, even though the game was single player. I won't name the game, but if I lose my connection at some point in the future, it is nice to know I'll still be able to play ED. :smilie:

AFAIK our games will be saved on the frontier servers but I might be wrong about that or it might change by the time the game is finished.

I cant wait for full release im saving up already!
Btw is it worth getting the beta?

Absolutely its worth getting. There are some issues but thats to be expected in an unfinished game. Its still definitely playable though

YES, the game rocks, just don't play 5-8 hours every day or you will burn out sooner than game will be released ;)

I don't think burnout is likely. There are already some folks streaming the game for 5-8 hours and sometimes longer than that and they are still enjoying it :D

then i am a weird person because i have burned out, but well, first couple days i played ED almost 15 hours/day :D

also my friend who is not big space sim fan told me that starts to get bored and he just played couple hours/day so far ;)

anyway i just meant that we all have our limits and the game atm has only as much as it has, streamers earn money by streaming so they are different animal, but we all play to have fun and repetitive things are hardly considered fun especially knowing that there will be a wipe ;)

i played ED for more than 3000 minutes before it started to feel boredom, i am afraid of the final release and all expansions, it might require millions of minutes of play time to get bored :)

but for new players who have not much time even this state of ED will be fun for months, just because it takes like 20-30 hours to get hang of the flight mechanics and another 50 to make all moves come naturally and without use of direct brain power ;)
