Backpack Battles

I wish this game had a single player.
I love the gems and socketing, but I find the lack of predictability for opponents makes certain builds like debuff against voodoo doll, or fast attack against thorns just feel like rock paper scissors. I think a singleplayer mode would make this game into actual GOTY for me.

lol what a response to such a necro thread. I feel like this encompasses the player base so much atm.

I just want to be able to play the game if, for example, everyone abandons it in two weeks. I don't think adding new game modes like 2v2 is that bad. :steamsad:

oh sorry I wasn't trying to knock the sentiment of the post or asking for new things. its just seems like every other day someone is making a post about wanting single player. I probably read these forums a little too much. its a nice touch finding the original request for single player in the forums and reviving the thread 5 months later??? only for another person to quickly quip a denial to the question. It seemed very humorous to me and how steam forums tend to work. personally I would like a single player or endless mode but seeing people daily make new posts about it seems comical.

Since the demo, the game been doing quite well, there gona be a lost of player of course at one point like any other game.
But the game is also a fake multiplayer, you won't run out of opponent since you play again build that other player made and probably already done with their run.

The only thing a "single" player would make is fighter premade build by the dev and having something more... fix.

In that case going for backpack heroes is exactly that. It a single player backpack management game kinda similar and is a single player game.

Yes, I understand, I just scrolled through a few pages and did not see a similar topic - they breed like rabbits in the spring. In addition, I did not find a clear answer from the developers on the issue of adding new modes to the game (perhaps they would like to add them now, with good sales).

Yes, but no. By single-player I mean something more than simple "simulations" of multiplayer arenas. Yes, maybe like Backpack Hero or something completely different. In any case, there would be more varied modes.
BTW, can the game now work fully offline without the Internet?
