solo online? LAME!

[Katta Richtus]

ok. second discussion. wow. alright, dont you think it is a little bit depressing. if you dont have an internet connection, then you can only play campaign. i still dont get, that if you want to play zombies alone, then you must connect to the services.

no no no. yes, you can play black ops 1 zombies offline but on black ops 2 the menu comes up and it gives you the choices of : Online, campaign, mutiplayer & quit. in order to play zombies or multiplayer in any way you must be connected to internet and have access to it. it will show a box saying "connectecting to online services" then when it connects through the internet you can play custom game.

this is because the bank and fridge are linked to muiltyplayer so you can take stuff out of both from solo and muiltyplayer...

Then just remove access to it. Or atleast let people play survival. -_-

The real reason why its online only is so that people don't cheat the leaderboards in some way, which already happens anyway.But the custom game should have an offline mode. This is just really disappointing.

ok. now i say this straight away. if you have an internet connection, but you cant go online, then comes the problem.

It still sucks because without the net you cant play it. Theres alot of games now days that will not work without an internet connection. I dont like it at all.

If you're being serious, then you obviously don't get out of the house much. Just in the past 4 days - my router broke and I didn't have Internet for an afternoon. The coffeeshop's connection isn't good enough to play online with people. And I had a 14 hours bus ride with, you guessed it, no Internet. Sure, I could pay hundreds and get a sat hook-up.

On topic, devs and pubs who allow single-player portions of their games to be controlled by the connection are probably not gamers themselves. I think that's a massively emergent problem in the industry nowadays - lotsa big wigs and high ranking execs making decisions based on what it's gonna give them, not on what is the player gonna be able to do.

Im pretty sure they also do this to prevent pirating which in my opinion is stupid. What if you have a gaming laptop and are on a trip or something and you do have internet access and just want to play zombies solo.
