In this guide we will tell you if you can play alone in Barotrauma 1.0. Is single player worth it?

Barotrauma 1.0 was released a few hours ago. The title was several years in early access. There are few new things in version 1.0, like proper ending and deeper story. Many players want to try out new features with friends, but some people wonder if the single-player mode is worth playing. In this guide, we will tell you about the single player mode.

A Barotrauma player

You can only play in Barotrauma, however, it’s harder than multiplayer and less fun. In single player mode, you can take control of all crew members. Additionally, it is possible to stack up to 3 commands, which can be performed by teammates, which are not controlled by you. In theory everything works…

However, Unfortunately the AI ​​is not ideal. You’ll have trouble with that and it’s the worst part of the single player experience. You have to be patient, start with a small ship and at a lower level of difficulty.

Solo mode in Barotrauma – glitches

  1. AI does not change priorities – as said before, the AI ​​isn’t ideal, the biggest flaw being that your teammates can’t change their task priorities. People who play Barotrauma know that this game can be quiet and slow for a long time, but when something starts to happen it can be very dynamic. Your IT teammates can only have 3 orders queued and you have to change their priority yourself. It can be difficult during fights when you’re drowning.
  2. Autopilot can be weird – when playing solo, you should check your autopilot frequently. You can choose a really strange (definitely not optimal) route. It is also impossible to target secondary targets with it. In addition, it is useless during combat. There is no “combat mode”. You have to drive yourself most of the time.
  3. you have to do it all alone – Players can split responsibilities, take care of their share of supplies, and buy them accordingly. In single player mode, you have to do a lot of things on your own.

A Barotrauma Player – Tips

  1. start slow – Choose a small ship and a low difficulty level. A player is difficult even without additional problems.
  2. crew members – engineer, mechanic and captain, choose these classes as your first teammates. Later take a doctor. This job is also very important, and your crew’s survivability is tied to this person, but you can heal your characters in the bases. The security guard is the next to choose.
  3. Change orders – as said, your people don’t change priorities. That means you have to do it for them. Choose them according to the situation.
  4. Don’t look for fights at first – Familiarize yourself with the ship and the controls, do not do side missions based on killing dangerous animals.
