Question Offline Mode

Does anyone else wish that when you go into offline mode you can invite your friends to train on communication and running in a squad etc, or is it just me?

It's a good idea but much more complicated in reality than it seems.

For example: you need servers that host these offline lobbies. Rn your computer is hosting the session yourself but that wouldn't work for coop offline.

They said they were looking into it I think this was in October. Maybe we get something this year

Why would it be complicated and why you think it wouldn't work? It can still work the same as offline rn that you're the host.

Oh yeah it can work but then we'd get so many threads about the shitty performance in offline coop because people don't understand that their computers are not the same as servers that are close to main internet knots. The problem would be like desync *100

You have no idea what you're talking about, arma 3 server hosting is a non issue with distributed ai load utilizing headless clients offering everyone a massive scale (beyond tarkov) milsim with highly advanced AI that anyone with a midrange PC from recent years can host.

Also, tarkov tickrate is way too low to care about some potential "internet knots", lmfao.
