How solo talents work?

[Jiraiya~]

well you can create characters in 2 different places one of them is Play section in main menu, other one is offline section. I went for play host a game private.
I was alone in the game and for test i gave speed bonus in solo tech tree. my speed values did not change in stats section.
So, I wonder how solo talents work ?

I have used the solo talents, not all of them but most of them.

The first 2 columns are the best i find, in that the first column near bottom will eventually give up to 3 tech tree points per level, the other on the second column also near bottom will grant a extra 10% xp boost.

I think you didnt read the description mate :), the solo talents i gave doesnt give any effect even though game is hosted private and im alone

I wonder if solo talents are working when being alone in the game despite the fact that I hosted the prospect selecting friends only.

Strange because it works for me in offline mode, i was/still getting 3 tech tree points per level plus the 10% extra xp.

If you are in a team then solo talents will not work, you have to be playing solo only.

He is specifically calling out solo in ONLINE mode. I havent checked this since I’m level 26 and only put points into solo yesterday. Interesting and concerning. Talent points are too valuable to waste.

Would assume it works for online as well being one of the devs stated that solo talents will not work for players in teams, and that you have to be playing solo in order for the solo talents to work.

I think it doesnt work in multiplayer mode even though server set as private mode (and im alone in world as well). because i checked my speed value before and after giving solo speed talent and it didnt change

So, if I'm alone, but inside a Prospect hosted with the option "Friend Only", they don't work?

Then it's mainly a waste of points, unless, you are only playing that game alone.

I tested again with new character in multiplayer it works even though if game is hosted friends only as long as you are only player in prospect.

From what the dev said is that if you are playing alone solo talents will work, there was no mention of how the game was setup in respect to hosting, apart from if you are in a team then solo talents will not work.

From what i understand of this is let`s say you host the game for friends, you all join and during that session no one will get the solo talent benefits because the game can see there is more than one person. Now if players left the session leaving only one person on, then i would believe the solo talents would then come into affect because the game will now see there is only one person on.
