Its alright solo, but obviously coop is going be way better. Due to the exfil camping the AI does, it makes it really rough, atleast early on if your on your own. Not to mention the timed extract summoning enemies on you.

Are you used to enemy squads spawning ontop of you though? Or how about an enemy you cannot even kill since its actually invincible? There is quite a few situations where you end up and realize, boy would i like friend or heck, i would of survived that fight if it wasnt just me. Either way, i think the game has great bones to work with and will be very good in the future, so there is no issue in waiting. But if you do fall for the FOMO, you probably wont feel bad about it.

I played for 7 hours today solo. had a blast. i can see how the game isnt for everybody but its definitely for me.

Playing with more people would be *more* fun, but playing the game as a stealth game where you occasionally get into combat is the best way to play in my experience. its got its bugs, but it in early access. if you can overlook the bugs, get it. if you cant, dont and wait until they update it some more.

Yeah more needs to be done to make solo viable, Exfil camping on Ashen Mesa is really bad hell INFIL camping is bad too.

it's fun and i can see the emergent stuff going on in the world actually helping out, it's almost like KENSHI where you hope another faction vs another faction then you pick from the loot

honestly if this game was an open world sandbox it'd be like stalkers fused kenshi lol

That's how I've been going about and its hilarious for me and I've already let out a few oh crap run moments. Good bit im just walking slowly taking in the environments and they're just so detailed and expansive.

It really depends on the people that you're going to go mission with, and the type of mission, and also the ping factor also needed to be considered.

The missions that requires certain amount of fire power and certain amount of capacity to finish at time it is best to use friends

in example if a quest requires you to kill certain amount of x europans soldiers, if you have 3 more members it will make the quest quicker to finish and more higher chance of success.

Rather then just one person trying to kill off that amount of people on their own. Once you shot a faction, their side is going to try to swarm you, so any help would be appreciated.

I personally never tried to get a team mates because I saw the ping rate the lowest is 89 and the rather highest is around 200 , so it is not ideal.

The game mostly fun, playing it alone and solo, but at time it is so scary and terrifying that you wished you had a human companion to support you. in example in the first map if during certain random generator you get the certain time where there are just white ashes all around and most of the faction that lingers in the area are the Eurasia and Euruskan and you can't see any europans arounds, as that spells out that there are no distractions for those two factions, and there is only you and them.. that freak me out.

I've been having a decent time solo only but I'd love a pause feature because I can't get someone to keep watch for me

been solo for like 6 hours today. absolute blast. no issues. even got through Ashen Mesa on my second try.

sidenote I do wish there was a singleplayer offline with a pause. ;/
