Another “always online” game that forces people to connect to internet while playing single player.

Even though most people do have internet access these days, it is still not a good development when you consider some places have less stable internet than others. And also what happens to the game when the server shuts down.

    I’m not a payday person so I have no horse in this race, but this is still such utter horseshit. The more games that continue to do this where it is completely unnecessary, the further away the date is when devs stop doing this bullshit.

    but I do believe you will have to have a connection in order to play cause it’s made in the Unreal Engine, it’s using cross-progression, crossplay, I do believe we need you to be online," said Listo.

    This game went from a “maybe” to a “never” for me. Great job, Overkill.

    Isn’t this essentially a four player on-line co-op game anyway? Is there anything to even do in it single player?

      You can play with 3 AI heisters, or you can go in solo.

      Source: I spent a lot of time figuring out routing for solo stealth heists back when PD2 was more popular.
