This way you’ll at least know what to do when you start playing online & you’ll have some more health so your team doesn’t need to cover & recive you the whole time. Just do a few runs of story mode offline to level a bit, collect some stuff, upgrade your weps/armor, that kinda shit. The rest comes later…
Thank you so much, this was the exact kind of advice I was looking for. I wasn’t fully sure how far you could go offline and if online/offline characters were different entities. Stoked to get the hang of this and join on up eventually!!!
The game is fully playable offline, the entire story is there. The difference between online is that you get to play with friends (duh
), you gain more experience, there are more rare items to be found and you can trade stuff with other folks. That last part usually happens to a noob who ventures online for the first few times: veteran players tend to dump their old gear on you, which is pretty useless to them at that point, but gives a new player a massive boost. Anyway, that’s how I do it most of the time.
Also keep in mind that while playing offline, it can be incredibly hard at dirst because your lv is so low, you’ll prolly die a lot. No need to push on to higher levels if you’re not strong enough (yet), you can play any level of the game again & again to level up & get better items, until you are strong enough to tackle that next boss…don.’t forget to log out properly when you finish a gamethough, this is your save
