Fix Offline Play

Postby DaleAGaming » Wed Jan 24, 2018 7:12 pm

Hi,

I usually play prison architect on my laptop which is rarely connected to the internet. Please fix offline play when launching from steam. Upon launching the game I'm faced with a black screen and the game stops responding.

That's an issue with steam, not with the game.

Play the Non-Steam version, you can get it from here: http://www.introversion.co.uk/prisonarc ... uilds.html

It works perfectly fine when playing offline.

The offline game is of course the easy solution.

Fact is that playing PA offline in Steam used to work perfectly. Now it does not. So it should be fixed.
The problem occured with the latest release, not with the latest Steam update.

Cloud saves off, safe mode, even starting online suddenly game crashes when connectivity is lost.
Just fix it, regardless the cause. Introversion should at least be the driver to get it fixed.

So then technically loads of games would be like this, right?
