Can this game be played offline?
I get why its in Marvel Avengers, you can play dress up and show your friends. But this is a single player game. I am guessing since it has cash shop, you cant play offline?

Editing the title to reflect my question

Jesus call the hyperbole police... there are plenty of earnable cosmetics in this game, if you buy the Season pass - which is going to have four new characters and story missions - then you get everything in the cash shop for free, each cosmetic costs $3 separately, and if you don't want them then don't buy them!

Performance issues are a legitimate reason for concern and a negative review until they are fixed, and these are being addressed - plus there are workarounds in the meantime. But this game is getting down-voted into the dirt over a bunch of nothing... don't people have anything better to do than gripe?

Toothless - to answer your question, yes you can play the game with Steam in offline mode and without an internet connection, I just tested it for you this minute.

Clearly you never played an Ubisoft game :s And I think you could maybe I donno

Probably the same reason as the last marvel game, because disney wants extra money. Granted this one seems far better than the previous one since I THINK you can grind stuff out by doing missions as much as you want, but it wouldn't surprise me if some outfits were "spend cash" only.
As for it in a single player game, one in particular you are paying full price or more for right out the gate, yeah I have some issues with that myself. In a genuine free to play title I can forgive it's existence, but in a full priced title it's a lot more difficult for me to be alright with that. Again, this one might not be as bad as some in past games have been, but it still feels similar to how they were just trying to squeeze extra cash out of people with the last marvel game.

Blame the gamers. They're the ones buying all the stuff in it.

Clearly?


Yup never played Ubisoft,

I own

The Division 1
The Division 2
Wildlands
Breakpoint
Siege


They do all have cash shops. Oh and all are multi player too. Tell me again, this is a multiplayer gamer by Ubisoft? I honestly had no idea.

Yeah I completely understand making money off skins.


Warzone, Pubg, nearly every multiplayer game today has skins for sale, and I 100% rather see that over pay 2 win any day. I personally would never drop a penny on pixels, after buying the game, but in multi player games, its better than pay 2 win. In single player, its a bit odd?


I jut didnt know it now also is in single player games. I live on a 40 acre farm, so I often look for games I can play offline.


Is this playable off line or does the skin shop make it single player online only?

Thanks

Publisher probably made them do it and it really doesn't matter, don't buy the microtrans if you don't want it.

Where have you been the last few years? This is nothing new.

Bethesda's Oblivion had cosmetic purchases (Horse Armor) in 2006.

We don't have to like the trend but we should stop pretending like it is something new that is somehow shocking to us.

The difference , Oblivion horse armor wasn't a day 1 cosmetic purchase, and it wasn't 95% of the cosmetic available in the game. Also it wasn't 50$.

My main question is can this be played offline? I know hen most games have a cash shop its online only. That is my biggest and really only question, I should have said that to begin with

They also made Rabbids Sparks of Hope and Assassin's Creed which are single player with no online multiplayer (Origins and onward)

Please read what I asked. I asked why it was in a single player game. And more importantly can this be played off line or does the cash shop make it online only?

yes and I enjoy Origins and I can enjoy that offline.

Again, which is why I want to know, can this be played off line or is internet required?


Why am I asking?


I live on a 40 acre farm and the winter can be hell with high winds and causing no internet. So I tend to look for offline playable games for when no service hits.
And before somebody gives that almost obligatory "GOOGLE IT YOU FAT LAZY SOB" I did lol

We can’t say for sure whether or not Marvel Midnight Suns is online or offline, though we can heavily speculate it will have offline functionality. Since we know what developer Firaxis is known for, that being the tactical game juggernaut XCOM, it’s likely that you’ll be able to play Marvel Midnight Suns offline no problem.


But I want to confirm it before investing in it.

Your title doesn't help then since it make it looks like your main question is why there is a cashshop, and i have no idea about online/offline since i don't own the game.
