PLEASE JUST MAKE A SOLO OR STORY MODE ALREADY!!!

I can get why he’s defending them because in concept they sound like a great idea. But in execution…sweet merciful Jesus is all I can say. There has been very, very few games as a service games that are actually good. But even then they’ve all had shit launches which is inexcusable. At this point it’s a “fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me” type of situation. If people are still eating these games up and complaining about them then they have no one else but themselves to blame.

But anyway, getting back to the main topic. At this point I see it as a moot conversation because it’s very likely it’s coming given the evidence. The fact that they specifically mentioned it and acknowledged it’s a popular request and that they’re looking into it is enough to give hope. But the recent addition of pausing solo private matches shows that they’re at least toying around with something. Will it come? I think it’s very likely. When will it come? Probably not for a while but who knows. Maybe I’m just pulling straws here and am completely wrong. But there’s nothing wrong with a little hope.

Right I’m just asking/hoping for the chance that we can get an offline mode but it’s hard when people will defend paying for an unfinished game then get mad at others for wanting what they dont want

So, even if this game only lasts 3 years like F13 which died due to Jason being random instead of separate que and the massive lawsuit we have at least 2 more years. Difference is working with the owners of the rights to the franchise at least so no lawsuit and they separated the ques. So, least they learned something I suppose

#181

They made Nexuiz? Well then in that case they’ve actually made 4 games. They also made dead alliance but I can’t blame you for not knowing about that one lol.

#182

That one doesn’t even come up in games they’ve made or helped on lol. Must of been really bad that they don’t even acknowledge they made it…

I had also never even heard of Nexuiz till I looked up games they made. Surprised they actually got 2 big franchises. One of which they begged money to help support making on gofundme I believe. Think the reason they are shutting down servers on F13 was because didn’t have permission to make the game and they lost in court and had to shut it down. Least this game though they have the backing and funding of the franchise owners.

THEY TOLD A PERSON ON STREAM TO GO PLAY ANOTHER GAME BECAUSE THEY WERE FRUSTRATED BY PLAYING KILLER!

But dbd does it its fine

Its a matter of the scheduling (which guess what, looks they’re fixing)

No. They got sued for F13 so thats has to forgived. They fail this game like thats a boycott (almost like I made that point before.)

Oh you mean like siege, and dbd, which are amazing games that cator to their core audience.

And like the new star wars game cators only to singleplayer players.

There shpuld br different games that cator to different aufiences, not every game should be an all in one.

Also i’m not mad. But there is a serious conversation here to be had. At the end of the day we all have our voices and Illfonic will listen to the loudest. And because of that its important to have discussions to shaped our opinions.

#185

They arent listening to the loudest they are only listening to ones they care about. Cause offline was the biggest voice to be heard before the game was even close to being released and look how that turned out. And yes the devs told them to play something else so what he was frustrated with everyone complaining about everything thing that they didnt like in the game he had a bad moment the only difference is that he said what most devs wont say to the community even of it’s a toxic one or not every devs wants to tell you to shut up and stop complaining thats why they rmusebthe word “passionate” it’s a nicer way of say annoying, but difference is that they listen for the most part, IllFonic hasnt listened at all first about players wanting offline and a city map and look neither are in the game. And star wars should have had an online mode to, I’m not a hypocrite I said every game should support both playerbases online and offline.

#186

I should of clarified, my fault, there are also some factors like skill, and practicality that matter. But being the loudest is also important.

(Theres also prioritization by importance and practicality)

They listeb. By ignoring everyone who complains about keys, and ds, and mori’s, and iridesent hatches, all the problems with the game thats been their since day one of their introduction, still there. Nice listening.

Just because they haven’t done it yet doesn’t mean they aren’t listening. For offline its prioritization (if they plan on it) . And for the city maps…

Do you know how many new assets they’d have to make by hand.

Ya no. Every game shouldn’t try to be an all in one. Some can like halo and cod. But its perfectly fine for certain games to purely focus on a single thing.

#187

My God your annoying me, you have your opinion you are fine paying for a half assed game as long as it gets better you have fun with that. And I’m not saying every game should be for both player bases but game like predator should be since majority of people wanted a campaign game not a 1v4 especially when they round out who was making the game and look how that turned out the game is basically dead and it could get better but by that time everyone except 6 of you would have moved on and the devs would have moved on to. If they do make an offline mode guess what you dont have to play it and no ones gonna care if you do or not. But the mode will be beneficial for other people for multiple reasons. And yes I’m fully aware of how much work it would go into making these assets and yet again of your in the gaming business especially the developing business your going to have to spend money to make money and work your ass off to make a perfect game and IllFonic didnt even make a good game and like I said it could get better but by that time everyone’s playing better games and will forget all about predator.

I think the best course of action @Eshtion and @mdg2020 and @GrimmReaper is to agree to disagree. I can understand why they didn’t add single player because wasn’t their intentions at first and also because they don’t have the man power of being a 78 manned company including management. They honestly aren’t a triple A studio like bungie, 343, EA, or Activision. Therefore they can’t provide like those companies do. They honestly shouldn’t of gotten the licensing for this game in the first place due to they don’t have the capabilities to make a game like this to what it could and should of been. They are a relatively small and new company that are trying to make their way in a very competitive industry by taking on projects they can’t handle to keep up. It poorly reflects the series they work on and upsets a lot of people. End of the day whether we like it or not they got it even if they shouldn’t of and nothing will change that. We just have to accept that and hope for the best and pray they get their act together, and we keep trying and supporting the game for what it is and waiting for it to get better. That’s all we can do.

Illfonic were the Devs on F13, Gun Media were the publishers. They launched a Kickstarter for a game called Summer Camp Vol. 1

The company Horror Inc. which owned the rights to the Friday franchise (at the time), gave them permission to use the Friday property, there were strings attached though. They had to approve all material added to the game.

A year after launch they got warned the rights might be under dispute in the future. So they rushed the bots, challenges and a couple of characters out the door. Didn’t have time to finish Jason X or the Grendel map before receiving word from Horror inc., that they had to stop releasing content. Illfonic moved on shortly after, they handed off dev duties to a smaller company Black Tower Studios, to finish big fixes and optimizing the game. Without content to create them and a Gun Media split, it appears to have been amicable.

The lawsuit. After 30 years a creator can reclaim their work if it wasn’t done under a work for hire contract. Victor Miller the author of the original movie had filed to reclaim. Horror inc. disagreed and so they took him to court claiming it was a work for higher, they failed to convince a judge as Sean Cunningham (Owner of Horror inc.) couldn’t produce a contract.
The judge ruled in favour of Victor Miller, he was awarded the rights to the first Friday movie and all the character, but only in North America. Cunningham would continue to own the international rights to the first movie and all other rights associated with the franchise.
Cunningham wasn’t happy and appealed the ruling. We’re still waiting to find out exactly what the judge ruled or if there will be another appeal. I believe they are working out a deal but have no proof other than Friday licenses being sold again.

It is possible the Judge ordered Cunningham to pay Victor, to recombine the rights and allow them both to get what they want. Victor doesn’t care about adult Jason and based on how little Cunningham paid him in royalties over the years, I pretty sure he’d part with the rights for his fair share of the millions the franchise earned.

Wes, the CEO of Gun Media has said he won’t work with Cunningham again, so there’s pretty much a zero chance of that game coming back from the dead.

Edit - Sorry, for the history lesson. I’m maybe a bit to passionate about that game.

On topic, I can’t wait to see what Predator Single Player Challenges look like. Want to hunt me a mutant alien T-Rex, and be seen screaming my lungs out, holding it’s skull 2 handed over my head.
I would like a bots mode, I suck as Predator and need more practice than I can get in live matches.
