    Offline Mode?

    Is there any way to play Breakpoint singleplayer in Uplay without an internet connection?

    In short no but the statement is :

    "Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint was built from the ground up to be an online experience. We heavily investigated the possibility of adding the option of an offline mode, but we were not able to come up with a solution that did not create an unacceptable amount of technical risks.

    However, with TU 2.0.0, we are implementing an update that we hope will alleviate some of the frustration players experience with poor internet connection.

    Our team identified that the service that was most difficult for players with inconsistent connections was the one that enabled matchmaking. With this new update, players who cannot maintain a sustained connection to matchmaking services will still be able to play solo PvE without being disconnected.

    These players will still have all of the functionality of the game except access to multiplayer modes. While in this mode, your Friends List will appear empty.

    The game will regularly re-test this connection in the background without impacting your play. You will be able to manually trigger a re-test of the connection by initiating matchmaking in multiplayer modes."

    Funny how ubisoft decided to left out millions of players with very poor connections or with no internet, I guess they don't like money.

    they also routinely drop connections so the official message was all BS anyway.

    We know this game is hard-coded to "Online-only" play

    Has anyone else noticed one GLARING discrepancy with the official answer?Anytime I boot the game it ALWAYS comes up onscreen "ONLINE MODE ENABLED".Now IF the game was designed to be online only why would it need to tell you "ONLINE MODE ENABLED"?Maybe in the early days BEFORE greed got put in front of loyal customers they had an idea about enabling it to be played offline?Just a thought but you never know,I could be nearer the truth than even I realise .lmao

    The game may have been designed that way, but they clearly heavily lean on the (source?) code of Wildlands, which had the distinction between online and offline play modes and showed that. So, if they used the same code here, it'll be a remnant.
