Ny Payday 3 "Solo Mode" kræver stadig en internetforbindelse

Det er årets underdrivelse at kalde Payday 3's lancering for en katastrofe, og efterfølgende har udvikler Overkill Software desuden haft rigtig svært ved at introducere kritiske rettelser og nyt indhold i det ønskede tempo. Med andre ord; det er ikke gået synderligt godt, og nu er udviklerne kommet i fedtefadet igen.

I morgen ankommer Boys in Blue-opdateringen, og det sker sammen med en såkaldt "Solo Mode", noget som fans har kaldt på lige siden begyndelsen. Men det her er ikke helt hvad der er blevet bedt om, for selvom du kan spille selv, så er det ikke offline. Instruktør Almir Listo forklarer det således:

"It's not our full vision for this feature. For now, we're setting it as a beta to test how it runs. We expect performance to be affected since the parts normally frontloaded by our servers will now have to be run on your own hardware. It will work, though, and you can get progression that'll update you once you return online. You will still be required to start the game while online in solo mode, which will be improved once we improve this feature. For now, though, we want to test that the features that went into this work work properly. Before the next iteration of the feature, we hope we'll have hosted co-op and all that cool stuff. Keep in mind this is not an offline mode. It's a solo mode where the portions of the game previously hosted on our servers are now hosted on your device. Bear in mind that this is a stepping stone for a feature to come, not something we're releasing and calling done."
