The offline/online charakter split. I am a long time online player and honestly expectet the launch to go exactly like this.
first time game devs, massive attention on the game, all very understanable.
But the split between charakters in offline and online mode? Damn that is really not a smart decsion.
I could imagine some reasons why (cheating being the most obvious one) but there are way how you can check if the data was temptet with.
I would bet the outrage right now wouldnt be half as bad if there was a way to transform the single player offline process into the online mode process.
for me that is the biggest and only non understandable blunder they did.
well , that was my two cents.Everyone that wishes harm on the devs or is being a entiltet litte child should go to sleep, eat somthing , or discover that unhealthy obsession with things is, well , unhealty.
best of luck to the devs, hope you get it working soon, without having to crunch for 48 hours or more.
I love all the nonsensical posts that are popping up with the launch. It is called server authoritative for a reason.
… How about you elaborate a bit on what the hell you mean and what it has to do with my post ?
you know, for us unknowing people that cant just peer inside your head.
They are separated for a reason.
Any ability to take offline chars online would instantly be abused by cheaters.
Not a good idea.
As mentioned above. To have a true offline game, you need to save the data on your own PC. Data like that are very easy to tamper with, so if you connected that with online play, you would have people suddenly flood the market with infinite money and items, breaking everything.
I remember my friend using editing software on his D2 saves to create weapons with infinite damage and similar.
