    Playing alone

    Are there any limitations when you play the game solo?

    If you play solo that's a limitation in its self. For sure you will not experience everything about the game if you play solo. It is a massive online game after all -_-

    It's a shame then...I'm thinking there's too much emphasis on MP or Co Op these's day's. Not a lover of sharing to that extent went off it after the COD fiasco of cheat's spoiling the game. Can't deny the cinematic trailer is awesome and the game play look's good, I just wish developer's remember those who don't like mixing.

    I like to play solo too but not in online games. Ether way I'm pretty sure you can enjoy this game however you chose to play.

    You can choose not to mix with players by avoiding the Dark Zones in game. You may still want to consider buying/trading/selling with other players, though

    From what we know, you can play solo but you will still need to be connected to the servers online since there will still be a large connected experience (player trading and selling on the live markets, crafting, etc).

    From the sounds of it, all the best weapons, gear, and equipment will be in multiplayer "instances" or "dark zones" that you need to interact with other players to successfully navigate. So you can play solo, but you won't get the best stuff (which shouldn't matter if you don't want to fight other players).
