Considering picking this up, is it worth the time if im only playing solo? Any chance it gets a sale soon?
>>
go away shill
>>
>>736840302
wait until the 14th, if they announce something about solo cryo archive you might be interested
>>
>>736840352
why would that be on the 14th?
>>
>>736840386
it might be announced during the mid season update

The game shines in teamgames where each shell unique abilities and movement can contribute in prolonged firefights.
You can play solo, but you should rather enter some discord and use a mic
>Any chance it gets a sale soon?
No, but it's 40 eddies

HELL no

The game is absolutely not designed for solo play. It was a last second addition made by Bungie in an attempt to save face.
>Any chance it gets a sale soon?
Most likely, either that or f2p. There's zero harm in waiting.

>>736840302
You have to decide if you're a marachad or a chud

The UESC AI is totally good enough for solo play. Just apply that code to AI runners and you can have a totally AI game mode.
>>
>>736840302
Im mostly a solo player. Its really really good, though it needs more maps. dare I say the best extraction shooter out there right now. If you are not ideologically captured by either side of the culture war, i recommend you give it a try. The game also apparently sold well enough to secure a full year of support, so the concord narrative is in shambles.
>BUT THE BUDGET
>LOOK AT THE STEAM CHARTS

Go lay your bitch ass down /v/, its over, you lost
>>
>>736840302
Yeah it's fun
>>
>>736840302
anyone playing in aus servers, is it dead?
>>
>>736841932
Yep, they would just need to balance it for solos (which it currently isn't). They're reluctant to do this of course because it splits the community in an attempt to get more players and is basically confirms that their game is dying
>>
>>736840302
No.
As others have said it isn't designed for solo play (you literally can't even play 25% of the maps). If you play this shit solo you're voluntarily accepting second class citizen status and being cuckolded by Bungie.

>>736840302
Game is miserable solo, queues are long, and you can't even play Cryo solo. Solo Arc is way more fun and has more variety in who you'll meet and what you'll do.
>>
>>736842040
I got a 10 min queue the other day before giving up. If it isn't long it's with cheating chinamen. Game is dead
>>
>>736840302
>is it worth picking up and investing your time into a game that will be dead in a few months
>>
>>736840302
Solo is a stealth game, trios is a shooting ambush game.
I've had way more fun in trios with people I know, but rook runs are fun
>>
>>736842040
at peak times it's fine, 1 min queue at most.
I tried to play at midday/mid arvo on a friday and couldnt get a game at all.

melb here. no, worst case you get matched up on the singapore server but with client side hit detection it isn't a problem. you shouldn't have any probs if you're playing as a solo during regular hours though.
>>
>>736842831
is there a setting to choose what server im playing on?
>>
>>736842040
I'm in Perth. Simply can't get games when off peak
>>
>>736842890
no, it will always put you on the sydney server if there are enough players in aus, but you can't choose the server or even see your ping.
>>
>>736842831
>515 hours
Have you bought out the MTX shop?
>>
>>736843123
nope, no store purchases just the season pass
>>
>>736843289
Damn, game is doomed for sure if even Marathon's Strongest Soldier won't whale for it
>>
>>736842040
only reason i never even tried this shit was because i new the game would die here quick
>>
>>736843856
You just get to the Singapore servers
>>
>>736840302
It's really hard to level up if you are playing solo. In trios, you share all XP, so you basically get triple season progress no matter what, as well as faction XP from your allies' contracts and their faction related activities (example: kills by your teammates give you as much XP as if you did them). PvE is also clearly balanced around trios, so anything involving killing a commander is really hard, especially early game. You can still play solo, but outside of doing contracts that would be difficult to do in random trios due to having to go all around the map, I don't do it. The game is clearly optimized for trios + Rook. Rook is great.
>>
>>736840386
Midseason update, which should have a new event. There is also a new experimental game starting on the 15th.

>Game have so little players to the point that they can't ban cheaters.
Let that sink in.
