This seems like such a non-factor to me. I can't even remember the last time I ran a console without being connected to the net. Of course in many many years time if the game becomes unplayable that could be a problem, sure. |
Not so much a non-issue when the servers are down (or being updated) and you can't continue with the campaign. GT Sport didn't record any earned credits / completed races / earned cars etc if it couldn't connect to the server. Congrats on completing that 3 hour endurance race. Oh wait, server connection gone, sorry you'll have to do it again. Sometimes it would still save if GT Sport managed to reconnect later, most of the time you simply lost your progress.
In GT Sport it didn't really matter since there is no real progression, more sandbox campaign. However if GT7 has a more structured campaign it would kinda suck to have to do long sp races over again because of server issues. Hopefully PD made it more robust.
