Can we not have so many unlockables hidden behind Multiplayer-only missions?

Can we not have so many unlockables hidden behind Multiplayer-only missions?

Post by hoodoo456 »

Seriously. Out of the 13 cars I have at the moment, there are 22 unlockables, and 8 of them are locked until I complete missions that I can only do in multiplayer. Both of KVN Toucan and Razorbill's unlockables are locked that way, even. I thought I'd get those missions done with, so I checked the multiplayer, and there isn't a single open game out there. What happens when the multiplayer is completely dead? Are players just completely fucked when it comes to unlocking everything you need to play online to get?

Honestly, I think Stainless should patch the game so these unlockables are able to be collected by achievments you don't need to play the multiplayer for. It annoys the hell out of the completionist in me, not to mention that a lot of them look really great, too.

We have a steam group and a discord channel dedicated just for multiplayer. I can almost guarantee you a full lobby everyday in the evening/night European time.

+1. I can understand it when Nobby said the idea was to encourage people to go onto multiplayer, but honestly it just makes gaining the unlocks near impossible for most people, so at this point they should probably update them to include Freeplay wins as well.

Agreed.

People will play multiplayer regardless of unlocks, but when unlocks require a certain amount of wins and so on. It can take forever depending on what time zone you're in.

Even if the single player requires more time or effort at least it's possible regardless of real world requirements.
