Yup, do not buy this game if you haven't already.
The server issues are bad enough, but the decision to include what's essentially DRM for single player is a practice that simply can't be supported and the developers need to taken to task for this monumentally idiotic decision.
Some details.
The single player is basically split into online and offline. If you're playing onffline, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO UNLOCK WEAPONS, ENTRY POINTS OR UPGRADES. The game has separate saves for online and offline and worst all...if you're playing online and you lose connection due to server issues, YOU WILL BE KICKED BACK TO THE MAIN MENU. You have no choice in this, you will be booted back to the menu...

What hell were they thinking with this bullshit...
Don't support shitty practices.
Seems like they have no plans on adding offline support, despite that being the biggest thing being thrown at the game in its current state...

@Hitman Any word when/if youre going to remove online only system (apart from leaderboards, thats understandable)? Also optimizations on pc?

@Lequu324 We don't have any plans to, we're working to get the servers up and running for everyone.
Kinda wishing I can get my $60 back now...can't believe they're letting bullshit ruin a genuinely good game. The PC userbase bailed on the game already, peaking at >13,000 users on Steam over the weekend, probably because of the "Early Access" miasma and now this. How are they ever going to recoup the cost if people may just stop at the start?
