Singleplayer or Server hosting?

[CyborgParrot (on 3 week vacation]

I just found out about this on a YouTube channel I'm subscribed too, and I'm excited for this (big fan of both S.T.A.L.K.E.R. & Minecraft).

Even tho this has the MMO Tag on Steam, will it be possible to host your own server for free (and maybe turn off/on PVP) and/or play this Singleplayer offline in a future update?

В STALCRAFT-е нельзя размещать свои собственные сервера, ибо это:
а) Нарушает лицензионное соглашение
б) Не выгодно разработчикам.
На данные момент в СТАЛКРАФТ-е есть только оффициальные сервера

Well that's kinda gay. :\

I guess I won't bother with Game then if you can't play by yourself/offline or host your own server.

You know if you're not gonna let people do this at least have the decency to host PvE servers, because from what I've seen and learned, PvP brings out the worst in people.

Well maybe it's not a big sham/scam? Hopefully not. I'd be great if it was a pay to play game and had no microtransactions.

I don't mind Microtransactions just so as long as they're for Cosmetic Items (or stuff that has no impact on the game or your experience) only.

The game is great, been playing using google translate. Has weapons/gear you can buy but it's a weaker version of what kinda be found/made in the game. I never put a dollar in the game but was dropping people who bought the $5-10 armours.

they won't let people create their own servers, because this project brings them(to EXBO) a lot of money, if they let, they'll lost money. if you didn't realize yet, these people came to steam for money with their "mediocre product".

literally just play the game dude lmfao stop being scared of PVP especially PVP that doesnt even ruin the fun of the game. All it does at most is make you lose your ammo and some scraps you picked up along your way doing your quests and grinding. It's not some hardcore lose all your loot game like tarkov you'll be able to have a good time on it.

sadly if you want a game that can create you own server, you must shove money to buy it first

Yeah that's what I was worried about whe, they said it was PVP that it would be like akin to Tarkov where you'd loose all your equipment, but since you've clarified that I'll definitely check this out again.

To follow up on what that guy said-
1. Most things you pick up outside are likely to be "drops on death" items; ammo, health items, components, mutant parts, etc.
2. Things like Armor and Weapons are "bound" items and will not drop on death, instead they will naturally lose durability through use and I believe they will lose a larger chunk on death.
3. IIRC, there are some purchasable items and quest rewards that are "bound" but can become "drops on death". Ammo pouches and Medical bags themselves should be "bound" but you'll need to unpack them to get the ammo/medkit; by doing so, you turn them into "drops on death".
4. Most quest items are "bound" so that you won't get shafted if someone chooses to camp a quest. However, delivery quests that give you a backpack are not "bound".

There's a warning on the store page saying this game isn't a casual experience.

Well the starting zone is pretty casual due to it mostly being filled with new players along with the multiple instances; even if someone wanted to go out and hunt other players down, they'd have to be rather lucky or ballsy.

so yk some of the reasoning behind them not releasing some items and stuff is cuz they are trying to find ways to monopolize stuff like gambling with lootbo><es (yes those crates will contain guns/armor/attachments (or so I have heard)).

I'm not really a "casual" player, all I'm just worried about was losing weapons and armour/suits on death, and the aspect of there being PVP I would encounter some serious arsehole individuals.
