You're not supposed to I think? Otherwise you could just AFK farm the crap out of the game.

Ubisoft never said you are not supposed to get rewards from AI Matches, and in fact they recognized that is a bug...
I dont think you can do an AFK farm cuz there's a timer that kick you out off the game without rewards if you spend too much time AFK (otherwise you can do farming in pvp matches)

Devs have already confirmed that VS AI (no matchmaking) is supposed to give rewards and progress towards orders in my thread http://forums.ubi.com/showthread.php...s-VS-AI-broken. The only mode where they are not supposed to give orders is duels. That being said, 2v2 still works with matchmaking off so any orders that are not mode specific can be done there.

Got any proof for the duel part? Because it's been working on consoles since day 1

Yeah the duel part is really quite a cunundrum. It has been said, specifically by people with ubi support tags rather than ubi community tags, specifically in the community support forum, but it makes no sense. First of all it works on consoles, secondly it would be a really ugly, counterintuitive design choice to have a mode that gives no loot or rewards outside of the learn to play/training section of the menu, and thirdly they said ALL orders should be completable in pvp AND pve.

Duels vs AI on console gives little enough xp, i dont know anyone who chooses that mode for levelling toons. Having it work as it does on console does not ruin or negatively impact the game in any way, shape or form, and giving an error message doesnt communicate that a mode is working as intended soooo... chances are it is intended to work.

Simply put: it makes no sense that duels vs AI outside of duel TRAINING should give no xp or loot.

Hopefully this is a misunderstanding that keeps being repeated by support because support has the wrong info. The alternative is quite ugly.

But let's hope it doesnt turn into one of those things that, when repeated often enough, eventually becomes truth.

It isn't meant to, not for any of it. If it was, the game wouldn't treat it like an error, which it does. This is Ubi failing at fixing their game, nothing more, nothing less. This is the one issue, of the MYRIAD that have plagued Ubisoft games this year, that makes me want a refund. More than that, I'd just really like it to ****ing work though. FIX IT UBISOFT! This is a solid title if you can get out of your own GD way!

Having played solely on PC, I guess that's where the misunderstanding comes from. Honestly didn't know that even 1v1 Duel VS AI gave at least miniscule amounts of XP/Steel.

It just adds to the whole "welp after 1.06 PC AI modes that aren't Brawl with Matchmaking off don't give any experience" frustration and it's really bad.

Yesterday I had tried playing a quick elimination match and of course, since it ain't fixed yet, I too am not getting rewards much like the rest of the players. If there's a reason why, I'm sure we'd all like to know. That and when is it gonna be fixed, of course.

OK, that's just weird though. Then the xp system loses all meaning, as anyone can just jam something in their keyboard and go AFK overnight and be level whatever. In PvP matches you have other players being able to identifiy if you behave oddly indicating AFK or botting. With matchmaking off you can farm, farm and farm some more if there are rewards.

Personally I can't see it making sense getting rewards with matchmaking off. But that's the way of Ubi I guess

you cant farm all night afk with MM off the game won't start, there is no countdown, you have to manually select your hero after every match, personally I have no interest in playing with or against other players so without this mode I don't play at all.
