Swearengen 653 Report post Posted July 22, 2017 You can make a suggestion in the suggestion forum. I wouldn't get my hopes up though, since it always have been an online only game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckYeahgurrr 68 Report post Posted July 24, 2017 A bit to the side, but ---- Gajin has a game Wings of Prey that I have picked up cheap and used for this purpose (traveling in remote areas wNo internet). I know it is not the same or free (still cheap). Might be worth a try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwAsinverted 72 Report post Posted September 10, 2017 Would be nice to see developers catering to offline games. There have been times where I wanted to play a game and didn't have internet. Most games nowadays require internet connectivity, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoVegas 36 Report post Posted May 4, 2019 I too travel a lot to remote areas often and would love it if there was an offline option. Even if it was just for Pacific campaign. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfree80286 1,158 Report post Posted May 4, 2019 It will never happen. Offline mode would mean losing control of the server side code, and enterprising people (like me) who are capable of reverse engineering software will immediately unveil all of Gaijin's dirty little secrets. Now, if they issued a 'clean' client side package, other astute players would immediately notice any differences and raise the question of why this client side does X but the server side doesn't... .... plus, all your opponents would be Assault Arcade grades of superhuman AI. You know, the ones that land 100% of their shots on you from a BT-5 bouncing at top speed across bumpy ground. Long story short, doing so would be a fatal headache for the company. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, the ones that land 100% of their shots on you from a BT-5 bouncing at top speed across bumpy ground. It's like people are not playing Assault. If paying attention, it can be seen that many AI tanks actually miss a lot. But if you have 10-15 tanks looking at you, and if 1/10 shots do hit, you will be hit. I wouldn't mind some offline mode, even with Assault AI. Something to mess around with when internet is down or missing.

It's true, i knew had something to do with hack stuff, but please, they can put single-player stuff in other client, something like that don't they? Like was the previews game, Wings of Prey. I've about to lose internet for few mouths and would love to simulate with bots, missions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FailBoatCaptain 439 Report post Posted July 26, 2021 when the game dies ( and it will , this is not a knock on Gaijin but War Thunder doesn't exactly have the WoW playerbase it's just a matter of when ) I would hope they would lock the game when they shutter it and give us offline play . but Gaijin wouldn't make nearly as much money from offline play as they would now. so it's not an option I would imagine ) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisAWJBethel@live 2 Report post Posted July 26, 2021 Offline play won't allow the game to die, though. It will immortalize and preserve the game forever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serega20140125 4 Report post Posted November 17, 2021 (edited) But what if we make separate game mode what can be downloaded separately and played as singleplayer? This idea is based on "EmuTarkov" - adaptation of "Escape From Tarkov" from MMOFPS to true singleplayer game. Some changes was made to make it intresting, but it's OK. Same thing can be done to War Thunder - true singleplayer conversion, "Singleplayer War Thunder" or "EmuThunder". It can be made as server emulator or by some other way. By game changes: in singleplayer variant progress can be speed up or everethyng is unlocked from the start; infinite gold eagles (as you have no donate, so we can presume what you playing with infinetly many money, without actually need to have this many money - it is singleplayer mode); all players excpet you is bots (all gamemodes just don't work with 1 player); anti-cheat is desabled because you is only player; excetra.
