single player

[sergykid]

is this playable single? but actually single player not connecting online then making a server and me to play alone in it or something. Does it have actual single player mode? does it install other things like GTA does with Rockstar launcher?
and, how good is the single player experience? is the game made in mind with multiplayer but they just slapped single there so that "you can do it" solo

[Shardik77]

yes, you can play single player without having to connect to a server. It's similar to ARK in that way.. It's the only way I play this game.

[PaPaKat]

yes it does have single player as an option to play , in fact over 90% of current players are solo just because of all the toxic BS , cheaters and egos of whos in charge of the server.
plus you dont have to worry about which mods you can or cant use , you can use which ones you want solo and have a ton more options.

i checked reviews someone said that they cant play solo anymore since the last update thats why i was asking

Probably a bug with their save, updates tend to do that to some people depending on mods or other various factor.

Yup, solo is great!

If you play completely offline (singleplayer), then you will not have access to any purchases from the Bazaar or old BP, Not sure how this affects the paid-for DLCs (on Steam etc) though.

EDIT: I wouldn't know how to play sans internet... I guess if you disconnect your WiFi/Internet... but I have never tried nor needed to do that.

you dont need to be offline to play solo , i dont know who told you that but they are wrong.
when you log in you have the option to play solo its a standard option in the game for years now and youn still get access to everything you said was nopt possible to do , the bazaar the dlc (although that dont matter either because you have access to it offline as well.
just make sure you pass on accurate information instead misleading people with false information.
if you dont know the correct answer why try to help?

You'll have access to all your purchases from the bazaar and old BP in single player.

The bazaar and bp are not tied to the online servers only and operate on different servers.

I only play single player and progressed through the bp and had access to the bazaar.

As for DLC, obviously we have access to that in single player as well.

This is spreading false information.

Both of you... TURN OFF YOUR PC's WIFI/INTERNET and let me know what happens when you try and launch the game. If you are able to launch the game (via the .exe), you will NOT have access to Bazaar items, old battlepass items and Twitch Drops (verified via the URLs below). On the other hand, if both of you have access to these items with your PC's internet disabled, then please share the start-up process with everyone (including me) for future reference.
first question why are you offline playing games today?
you dont need to be with Conan (or most games today) its an option when you log in then make yourself admin set up your SP server settings , its easy. if you go from an offline save to an online one you will get codes because it has to update to whats online.
i didnt force you to turn on your wifi you did that on your own. so dont go demanding any kind of apology from me because i stated nothing but facts!
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE OFFLINE TO PLAY CONAN SOLO!!!!!!!!!!

You guys just forced me to turn disable my WiFi and check. Here is the text of the prompt that pops-up after I disabled my internet and attempted to start Conan Exiles via Steam (note that I did not try to launch via the .exe, just through Steam):

04:50:06: Starting BattlEye Service...
04:50:07: Updating...
04:50:07: Update failed (1, 6). Please check your internet connection and/or firewall.
04:50:09: Launching game...
04:50:10: Note: File blocks can be ignored if they don't cause problems with the game.
04:50:10: [INFO] Blocked loading of file: "D:\STEAM\steamapps\common\Conan Exiles\ConanSandbox\Binaries\Win64\ConanSandbox_BE.exe".
04:50:10: Failed to launch game.

Yes, you do. I think either there is a language issue here or misunderstanding. Let me try to make it more clear:

1 - you NEED to have an internet connection to play Conan Exiles. This includes singleplayer and playing on servers.
2 - if your PC is NOT connected to the internet, you will NOT have access to Bazaar and Battlepass items and Twitch Drops as the launcher requires the internet for a verification check for those items.

As for the apology, it wasn't for me clicking a button on my PC to turn off my wifi. The apology is for you accusing me of spreading incorrect information. I provided multiple links and my own experience in my previous post. Not sure what else I can do to convince you other than to ask you to turn off your PC's internet connection and share the results.

:LegendaryAxe:

all i have to do is go offline with Steam and have no problem logging in.
your battle-eye is the anti cheat.
instead of using wifi , hard-wire your PC Ethernet cables are not that expensive.
firewall never had any problems with it , if you set the game up right when you installed it.
if your blocking things through your PC settings (firewall) then thats on you no one else.
everything your pointing out are problems on YOUR end.
again i ask though...why are you playing offline?

Well, I just tried going 'offline' with Steam and the Funcom launcher worked but at the game's main menu, it fails to log in.

Please do not reveal your location but could you let us know if you you located in the USA? Maybe its a regional thing with your country? If its not that, then I dunno? Many have said that those items are not available if you do not have access to the internet.

I still have not tried launching via just the .exe. though with my WiFi disabled.

again i ask though...why are you playing offline?

I always have my internet enabled

However, many others do not have stable internet connections or at locations where they do not have access to the internet at all. Also, some care about their privacy etc. So if you look at the links I provided earlier, you will see those who this issue affects.
