Please remove the always online, it's useless and it only harms costumers.
So, I would understand if the game was similar to Dark Souls (by doing coop in Dark Souls, people can drop equipments, souls etc. and the person who grab those can make his single-player campaign way too easy, and also trigger a ban, since in example Dark Souls 3 marks the savegame with hacked items giving you a warning about, so you can delete those and keep playing), but here the always online DRM is totally useless.

The game is strictly a single-player experience with a cooperative mode which only helps to gather more resources and kuban energy. You can play the whole campaign without ever doing cooperative missions, since you don't need them at all.
The drm only harms regular customers, because soon or later the servers will go offline and people will end with a single-player game in their library which they can't play.

It's an online game, end of story.

You have a bad internet and can't play PUBG because you disconnect ? This is the same.

Also we saw what happened in MGS5:TPP, people cheated in singleplayer wich affected the multiplayer, all with the excuse "I only cheaated in SP, I don't care about MP", so if the MGS community wasn't filled with cheaters Sp could have been offline by changing some stuff, so we pay the price of the bad part of community, check the forum and see for yourself.

The saves are all handled server-side, that's why it's always online.

It's done that way to prevent game-save file tampering.

Thats a terrible excuse and you know it, GTA V, Phantom pain, and every other singleplayer game with online elements in existence can be played offline. Not even battlefront 2 went soo low as to demand an online connection to play the singleplayer.

The difference being that the character data is not stored on an external server in those games.
It is genuinely impossible to play the game offline because there would be no data to load. Yes, it's not the best way to deter cheating but it's the only way to ensure it can't be done by just your average player.

Plus, look at GTA5 - the character data is stored online and offline, hence the hacking epidemic.

Oh, you can't read or something ? That answer was in my previous comment, I'll repost it and hope that you are smart enough to understand what I'm writting.

"Also we saw what happened in MGS5:TPP, people cheated in singleplayer wich affected the multiplayer, all with the excuse "I only cheaated in SP, I don't care about MP", so if the MGS community wasn't filled with cheaters Sp could have been offline by changing some stuff, so we pay the price of the bad part of community".

I'll put an easier sentence for you, just in case:

"MGS fan stupid, cheat on SP but it affect MP, ruin MP, then complaign about online, bad community"

I see your logic in that so imma throw a spanner in it. MGS:TPP had multiplayer feature in it's single player (Mother base) where you could go into their base steal/destroy etc. If i were to cheat and make my base epic, you as an average player would have a tougher time because of my cheating hindering your online experience in the games features correct?

So what in MG:S has online features in the single player campain? If your argument is cheating in MGS:TPP SP effects MP what Effects MP in SP in MG:S?

I'd buy the game if they would remove the always online drm.
Players at the moment are less than 2400 on Steam all over the world, so soon probably people will abandon the game and Konami will pull the plug from servers, leaving users with a game they can't even boot.

Rainbow 6 Siege. Terrorist Hunt can be played as a single player game. Always online.

There are several titles I've played that requires always online, and have single player component. They do not have as much complaint as MG:Survive.

It's 2018 people, seriously, stop being cheap. Toss your dial up in the trash, get a job, and upgrade your internet.

If TPP server are still online and we get march update for MGV the server won't be plugged soon.
Always online or not it won't make people buy it, if it was offline people would just pirate it like with MGS5:TPP.
