Let people play with bots in Conquest mode without internet connection.

We all expected BF2042 to continue line 2 like it did with Battlefield 1942, 1972 (Vietnam), 2, Special Forces, 2142. We all want to remove forced internet connection so people can play with bots wit...

@Trokey66 Don't need to be working with DICE to be smart enough to see the simple facts. If you actually played Battlefront 2 you would see the truth as well.

Galactic and Starfighter Assault are both still there, Supremacy is there, Heroes vs Villains is still there.

Did they take anything out of the online matches when they added the Offline Instant Action to Battlefront 2? Nope

Everything is still there.

@Jesse165ahhh so you had intimate knowledge of the SWBF project plan as well!

Was that mode always planned in or a 'last minute addition'?

If it was last minute, was it as a result of spare capacity or did something 'unannounced' not make it?

As someone with obvious inside information, you'll know the answers to these questions.

    @Trokey66 Actually I do know the answer to that one.

    There was nothing unannounced after that because it's when they all started working more on Battlefield 2042 which is what they have been doing ever since.

    If they were working on anything else at the same time that they added Instant Action it was probably stuff for the main part of Battlefield 2042 such as the Solo and Coop matches that will be in the game at launch.

    All we are asking for is that they eventually make the Solo Matches for the main game and Portal playable offline even if they can't be as big as the matches using the EA/DICE Servers.

    It's really as simple as that.

    @Jesse165 I asked was that mode pre planned or a late addition, answer that with authority.

    @Trokey66 Doesn't really matter since they would have moved to Battlefield 2042 regardless of what the true answer is.

    I'd like to say it was a last second addition as a Thank You to all the Battlefront fans that stayed with the game through the end.

    But the only one who probably can give a concrete answer to that is Dennis Brännvall and I don't think he is even with DICE anymore ☹️

    @Jesse165that IS the point, no one but DICE knows, it may have been a last minute addition due to spare capacity or it could have been in the development plan from the beginning.

    Either way, you cannot assume that because it happened in SWBF 2, it will happen in BF2042.
