From what I've seen there only seems to be deathmatch and pvp-esque components. Don't get me wrong, playing against players is incredible. It's everything I hoped and dreamed for.

Let me link you to a video that left me in a cold sweat.

Cheesy? You bet your ***. Cliche? You bet your ***. Awesome? You better be sure it was. You don't get that kind of feeling from an MMO/PvP, where everyone is the hero.

Just my short blurb. What do you guys think about a Campaign expansion?

This has been discussed before.
You want to do a search before you post.

The answer is no, there are no single player campaign.
If they will add it I dont know, though I honestly doubt it.

You also want to read up on the info about what the devs have planned for the game.
I suggest the Dev blogs and Dev Q&A.

My apologies. The link doesn't work though, and I did indeed search for it. I however did not find anything that pertained to a suggestion/conversation.

I actually would enjoy a campaign. I can just imagine how awsome it could be with all the improvements since the last game. ive been playing MW4 and its lots of fun but after a while the missions get repetitive. Nowadays so much more could be done with it. I for one hope that eventually they will get around to making a campaign. Just dont slack on MWO. B)

No need fore single player, but new scenarios and maps once in a while would be cool. Also, maybe a game mode where only allied houses (circa 3049) can group together and mercs of course.

I would have thought that everyone who liked MechWarrior would PREFER a single player game, but is grateful and pleased that a multiplayer/online game has been made, since hey, it's better than nothing?

Personally, my preference is for a single-player campaign, where it's all about me. I'd be happy for that to spin-off into a persistant online multiplayer campaign for those who like multiplayer, but generally it's something I can enjoy but don't need. When I first saw the Mechwarrior reboot video in 2009 I was very excited at the prospect of a new off-line game but a little cynical that it would come though. I'm happy that rather than nothing came of it, MWO has emerged.

I was always interested in the Chrome Hounds online campaign. I didn't get to play it, but the 1-player game was just training for online play. Sounded interesting - I'm sure MWO will be excellent, since it has the original creators involved.

Only NPCs I want to fight are NPC assets the player commander can call in or direct in the pvp fight. Infantry, orbital strikes, airstrikes, tanks.

Stupid forums search, always acting up.
If you click the link you get to advanced search.
From the drop down menu select "only search in Titles" and then search for "Single Player".
That will get you plenty of results

Or you can look at this thread with a response from Paul.

Maybe in the far distant future, but not at the moment.

Ah, thank you very much.

It's good to see people show support for the idea. Hopefully the distant future holds something resembling a campaign. ;)

One more vote for a single player campaign here. Honestly the devs have everything already, just need to make up a story (good hopefully) and hire some voice actors.

I'd be okay with individual missions like you see in other PvP games. Dropping with a company of mercs into a battle against an entire regiment of NPC's? Oh yes.

i wouldnt mind a campaign mode for training purposes or a little storyline arc to follow for a few extra c-bils but it has to be a heroic effort that helps you better your control over the mech operation to better your team play in pvp modes where you get all the exp
as for another event i would like to see is a lance/company of developers and GMS have a battle weekly/monthly with a random selected merc company as this will achieve 2 things 1 is devs and gms can test for bugs and glitches that might need fixed and 2 is if the merc company wins they get bragging rights to say ya we beat them and once a merc company has played the devs they go on a waiting list before going back in for a draw against the gms and devs again maybe have a video of the battle filmed and posted for all the mech warrior pilots to see
(yes i have seen gms and devs hold events like this in other pvp matched games)

Is it really that hard to read and understand the information that has already been posted on this?
There are no plans for this now, nor is there currently any plans to add it anytime in the future.

Maybe in the distant future, but for now its multiplayer PVP only and continuing to ask for it will not change anything.
