Suggestion: Optional "solo/coop/portal only" profile with full progression

I understand the reasoning for removing/not including full progressions against bots as it ruins the multiplayer side of the game. But It would be nice to have the option of having a separate profile for purely PVE/Portal gameplay, like the combat training mode from COD BO1.

    Not really it is not ruining anything about the multiplayer side. The only likely reason they removed the full progression is because they likely do not want the players to get everything to T1 and (in their logic) lose the incentive to play the game.

    They have not yet admitted it directly, but the way they were so reluctant to even adjust the masteries until yesterdays patch, is imho an indication of how much they were betting on a long and hard mastery grind to be the dam that prevents all of the water reservoir from flowing out at once.

    An alternative theory of mine is that people killing too many bots with full progression might be creating false positives of cheating based on the number of kills per round.

    Of course this is all just conjecture since they were never expanded on any post about what exactly their deal is. Unless I am mistaken, the largest thread on the forum which is asking for full progression, was never given any good reply about this.

    So in my opinion, there is nothing we should be bargaining about, the ball is in their court, not ours

  • @RyuAzuku I think it is ok to level up guns to level 12 and no more - to unlock all the weapon gear. Rest of way to Tier 1 you need to fight for. Think many new players should start here to get a feeling about the game and how specialists work. I have used solo play / bots play a lot to level up all guns.
