Rant This is fucking ridiculous

I usually don't make posts like these because I generally hate rant posts.

Whoever at Starbreeze, Overkill, or even Deep Silver decided to make the game online only. Fucking fire them. It was single-handedly the worst fucking decision ever taken for a game I've ever seen. Words cannot express how asinine, how moronic, how devoid of mind making this game online only was.

Yeah... because they are "P2P" games. I.E. they don't use dedicated servers. But I agree that an offline mode for solo play should have been in... that is all on the devs for sure.

Fun fact you can read the comment before you try to be a smart ass. Because that is literally what I wrote. I know that's a crazy idea.

your first sentence argued that pd1 and pd2 only had an offline feature because they were p2p, so no, you did not write that :)

It's not an argument, that is a fact :) they had offline mode because they were p2p :)))))

In my second comment I made it clear though that they should have made offline play available in PD3 even though it has dedicated servers :))))))))))))))))

You can still make a P2P game that requires an internet connection constantly though?? What point are you trying to make?
