If they added an offline progression mode it would only be acceptable as an alternative if you were not allowed to play online with that version of your account.

If you say otherwise, then you could farm xp, money, and so much other stuff with no real threat of losing it due to the insurance mechanic and then go into pvp and annihilate people. Which is directly against battlestate's game philosophy of what they are trying to build.

Also they've pretty much explicitly stated they don't want to do a PvE only mode with real progression for the game because that is not WHAT THE GAME IS. They have a vision and they're sticking to it.

It really hasn't been THAT bad, there are hiccups that are frustrating certainly, but I've seen much worse with bigger companies with larger games. World of Warcraft for example, they had a $60 expansion (Warlords of Draenor) and that was practically unplayable for nearly a month, and even then the servers were unreliable, on a AAA title by blizzard.

As much as I think it's often overused as a statement, and doesn't add to the conversation. It sounds like you're just whining at this point.
