How's singleplayer of the game?

[Squallex]

I would like to try this game, but I don't have any friend who is interested in playing that kind of shooters. Is the game worth to buy for a singleplayer experience only?

Buggy, performance issues (fps dips), the campaign is unforgiving, and suspects AI is god-like without AI mods.

I love the game, but single-player got a bit boring quite quick for me. Not the same thrill without communication and human mistakes.

Is good, but i recomend you wait 1 week until the hotfix

not in current state no. biggest issue for the single player experience is the AI difficulty. In the past its been hard but as of 1.0 the AI wall bangs me without line of sight every couple of runs to prove that they can. Pair that with the fact that you have to go through a loading screen once you die or restart, then a waiting screen, then potentially another loading screen, then your mission will begin. Really just makes for a tedious time.
Not that there is nothing enjoyable about the game. The atmosphere is tight and its really immersive when its all working together. Maybe give it a week or two and see if they patch anything but rn singleplayer isn't really that strong of an experience.

12 scripted missions. thats it.

Teammate AI consistently going into rooms backwards and not reacting to enemies shooting at them. Often trying to shoot through each other, or just randomly shoot each other for no apparent reason. I've watched them mag dump civilians just because, and the one time I wanted to try and use less lethal to arrest a guy for a mission (Spider), he instantly got his head blown off as the door opened, they never even tried telling him to drop his gun. Also I can't seem to find a way to play solo without firing all my teammates.

Meanwhile, enemies are basically the terminator most of the time. You get a few that will take 1-2 rounds and go down, but the majority it will take literally my entire AI squad shooting at them (plus a full mag from me) for them to go down, and they aren't even wearing armor yet. Because yes, they do wear armor later. Also the AI consistently hits you or your team with basically every shot even while sprinting around.
Not to mention there is 0 sense of escalation.
Mission 1: kinda makes sense: Briefing 5 or so punks shooting up a gas station, and you get exactly that.
Mission 2: Briefing says 1 guy shot his mom and is holding his brother hostage. In reality you get ambushed from multiple different angles by 8 guys with rifles and handguns.
Mission 3: The meth house from early access, literally everyone except 3 of the like 15 or so people in there want you dead.
Mission 4 (Spider, ♥♥♥♥ this mission): Briefing says 1 guy is hiding out in this building. In reality you get instant rushed by 5 guys with AKs the moment you make a sound (which is sometimes immediately as your AI teammates start yelling as the mission starts half the time). Also there something like 12 more guys inside.

You'd expect the first couple missions to be more like what Mission 2 tells you it will be, 1-3 tops suspects that will probably comply after some non lethal. Instead you have Six Days in Fallujah in LA, but the insurgents (read: meth heads) are basically playing Call of Duty rather than a slow-paced tactical shooter.

TL;DR:
Game needs WAY more time in the oven, this is not a 1.0
Their AI are on God-mode while yours are detrimental.

It is literally faster and more beneficial to Alt-F4 and relaunch (game saves just before loading the mission) than try and play it straight on a mission fail.

I have no one to play with and I am only playing single player and ... it is not an enjoyable experience to say the least.😂For the reasons being mentioned in detail above.
