Offline Mode ?

Hello. Why no Steam Cloud ?

[Korneliy]

i will boost this one up. is it gonna be full scale live service game without offline and listening servers?

there's a description "Single Player". As long as I do understand about "SP" this is enough to understand that we will have an offline option as well as we had during KF1 and KF2.

The Crew 1 (Rip) and Test Drive is Singleplayer too. Lets hope

This is exactly what I want to know as well. They broke KF2 and never bothered or never wanted to fix the offline support.

I stopped buying games that have a kill switch at their core.

thats an invalid reasoning in 2025, there are loads of games that have a tag single player but are "always online" ....

It's been the case for the last 5 to 10 years at least. Single Player does not equate to offline. It's why I check before putting money down on any game. I refuse to pay money to rent a game that can be taken away on a whim. Looks like KF3 is off the table until they add offline/player hosted. Payday 3 still doesn't have offline despite being one of the main reasons it has abysmal sales. Some devs will never learn.

Ok, there won't be offline mode, hence Tripwire avoiding all questions about it and keeping silence at PD3 comparisons.

Does Killing Floor 3 Feature a Solo/Offline Mode?
Yes. Players can choose to play the game solo on their own machine. As long as the player has a working connection to the back end, their stats will progress. If a player does not have a working connection, the game will use the last known stats but will not progress.

Please add a separate offline and Lan co op with progression. Pretty sure in KF2 there was progression offline. Without this it's a hard pass for me anyway. Devs need to stop with the live service and online only bull crap and let players own what they pay for and for preservation sake.

In killing floors case this has always been how it works.

Offline progression would be nice but considering you need internet to even access the game to download it…it is a fair trade off as once the stats are loaded to your profile they stay there permanently until there is another internet connection.

At least that is how past games worked

False. KF2 you could play offline and still have progress. I'm 98% certain of this.
