Single-Player Only.

Hello. So, i just started the game, and so far i'm having a blast with it. But this is my first time playing the game, and i want to experince it without random people joining my game. Can i disable co-op? Or multiplayer? I just want to play alone.

Can't really turn off mp in an mmo-lite

Don't think so. The entire game is always multiplayer connected so you will always encounter people unless it doesn't have matchmaking like during a nightfall.

If you do; you wont be able to play the game. It requires constant connection, as all online games do.

Players will only join you in the public spaces - when you start your story missions; they shouldnt be there at all, unless you invite them (or it takes place in public spaces).

They'll add single player, don't worry.

Oh. So that must be the problem. Because i just started the game, only looked at the settings for graphics and controls, and as soon as i encountered that huge robot thingie, 3 people joined me. Can i set the game on private, or invite only?

It's an always online multiplayer game, other players will come and go any time that you're in one of the public patrol zones. You'll get to play through a lot of the story content on your own though. Most of the missions don't take place in public spaces.

there should be an option do disable the auto-join.... i cant take a look at the options currently, but there is something like "private"

you will always see other peoples... but noone should join your group during missions

Open zones will have players because it is an online game.
Instanced story elements and dungeons will see other players disapear unless they are grouped with you.

And i don't remember the game having an auto join feature...

Man lol...there is an option in settings so you can change it in "public" or "friend only" but in the public events you need more people to kill the bosses...i have the option to "friends only" and when the public events is up i can play with other people to kill the boss

[kwong20287]

You can do story missions, adventures, lost sectors, nightfalls, shattered throne(if have forsaken) totally alone. I think that's all.

[S1LV3RHAND]

Most of the story missions is SOLO ONLY. So i see no problem.

[SandScorpion]

I think the story missions can all be played solo.
I know I played the entire story solo when the game was on battle.net.
Most of the other content is ballanced for multiplayer though.

Can you be more explicit where? Cause i checked every option in settings. And all i found was team chat, invite notifications. But nothing else.

Theres a workaround to force the game to match u alone...set back ur time and date with like 1 day. That way u wont get matched with others. Never tried it but others said it works.
