Single player

[Canning_s]

Hi there,

When the final version of ED is released, I gather that there is going to be a single player option.
Can someone explain how this is going to work? Is this total single player, such that the game does not connect to an online server? Can the player save games, and reload them if they crash their ship? What are the details?

Thanks in advance

im under the impression that single player offline will not be able to sync with online which means that your offline character will always remain offline, while if you play the single player online you will be able to swap between single online and all online.

I cant give you the mechanics of quitting the game offline, but I imagine that your save will load in the last jump or last station you undocked from,

It was stated somewhere there will be two solo options

Solo Offline (does what it says on the tin)
Solo Online (Online Economy fluctuations and events will effect your universe too)

As others have stated here yes there is a definitely SP offline mode. This was something very important to many people including me and was something many of us checked and were assured of from the kickstarter.

So yes you will be able to play SP offline.

Hopefully there will be many save slots so you can indeed reload and try again. This is how I plan to play. I am hoping for indefinite saves just like we used to have but none of this is confirmed yet.
