A single/co-op campaign add-on would be a lot of work,
but will open the game to many players and bring a lot of money.

I think it should be a paid-extension, and if you finish it
you earn a special cammo for the mech wich you played thru.

That last part seemed really legit. (That means good)

I don't think so. It could have optional paid features on it, but it would suck if it would be paid.
The game needs to keep on it's freee-to-play system.

Absolutely yes.

Howeber it would suppose a massive number of things to add to the game, the developement costs would be arround the 75% of a brand new game if they want to do it well.

Of course they could jus add a sigle player campaign like the one implemented on Star Wars Battlefront 2 (just the same maps with bots and some special objectives to accomplish), but I think that would just suck.

That means that if we want a well done single player campaign, we will have to wait a couple of years. Nowadays the Multiplayer is the priority here and it will have to be until there are a massive amount of content for it (lets talk about +20 maps and +40 mechs) and a consolidated comunity. Maybe then they will able to spare some resources for a single player mode.

[Rechtglaubig]

I thought Deathmatch was "single player mode".  

[Crian]

I really would like to see a single-player version  of this game with some simulator elements.

[Pirits]

Yeah, I need a place to check out the funny hard to reach map spots.

This game is actually not so much of a sim.

[tman7919]

Made some edits.

I approve this message. Bottom line is, they need to finish what they are working on right now("aka" Multiplayer)... then add things later("AKA Singleplayer). Its never good for anyone when something like multiplayer never becomes a finished product.. one thing at a time... rushing such things can ruin a game!

Good point actually. I know they need to make the multiplayer elite but when or if they finish that I would like a singleplayer.

[DeathTraveler]

Are you suggesting some sort of campaign.  If you are I would like it unless it's a boring one with AIs that are easy to kill

Not suggesting only wanting to know if the population wants a singleplayer campaign.

[YellerBill]

Personally, while I think a singleplayer would indeed be cool, and would support Adhesive if they wanted to make one, I don't know how viable that is. I would positively love to see some PvE co-op horde mode though. Fighting an endless army of zombie mechs_ Why not_

Edit: I said Meteor, I meant Adhesive. Thanks, tman, for catching that.

One quick correction Adhesive Games LTD develops content and Meteor Entertainment produces.

I would love a campaign for this game. I want them to go the whole distance with this. Hawken has captured my imagination like no other game and the concept is well worth exploring in a lot more ways than a multi player shoot-em-up. The graphic novel previews have been awesome and I would love to see an anime movie but if the live action trailer is anything to go by a straight up movie would be cool too. If I was a big fish in Hollywood, I would be throwing cash at these guys and saying "Do what the hell you like with it!"

You deserve two likes.

[YellerBill]

Even if Adhesive doesn't have time to develop a single player/ co-op campaign, I'm sure there's a couple people around the forums with programming experience who might volunteer...

[hawken00]

I have to say that with experience, i know that this game really lacks PvE/single player/co-op vs environment content. Not everyone likes to only pvp, especially if you're not that good at the game. And even if you're good at it, the game becomes boring eventually.

There should be some PvE raids, and something that keeps you logging into the game every day, like some itemization and farming content (well it's already there with pvp, kind of, but items are too useless in this game in the actual stage).

Skill tree has to be reworked too, i mean who cares about a 1% dps increase with a fully filled offence tree_
I know this was done for a better balance vs low level players, but this needs better design.


Honestly i really think the gameplay is better than all AAA Fps games, the graphics engine is really good. It just need a lot more content to become very popular.

[SpacePenguin]

Although it is definitely not necessary, I would love a single player campaign, especially if it had an interesting, deep and intriguing story. I have been playing this game for about a week and I have no idea what or who the Prosk is, and this could help a lot with the back-stories. I would love it.
