So, an idea I had is, that SK could create an offline mode. When someone wishes to go into offline mode, he has to activate a special option when online: Enable offline file downloading.

Basically, what this does, even time you close SK, before the game closes, it downloads a copy of your profile's data on your PC.
When you want to open SK the next time, you get an option:

"Boot in offline mode?"

If you select to boot in offline mode, the game scans all the knights' that have been downloaded on your PC and asks you to select one, then it takes you to the knight selection screen, then you just start the game and can roam around and do any kind of mission/arcade you want.

IMPORTANT NOTE: While in offline mode, you CANNOT buy items, sell items, earn crowns, trade crowns for energy and that stuff that could be abused.

When you go back online THE GAME DOES NOT REUPLOAD FROM THE PC FILES TO THE SERVER. It just boots normally from the file already saved on the sever, so people can't hack the hell out of their knight and use it in servers, but they can do it when playing offline for personal enjoyment.

This would to an extension, allow people to share knights so one can play as someone else offline and test weapons.

ANOTHER IMPORTANT NOTE: Some people might think that will take any reason out of paying and playing online, well it won't. When playing offline, you can't complete missions (can repeat, not complete) or earn crowns/craft, so you won't really do anything other than play missions.

FINALY NOTE: The reason I am suggesting this, is because sometimes, you just want to play a mission, no rewards, no nothing, and you have bad internet. Or another case would be that you go somewhere without internet but still want to play SK.

Hopefully it will support Lan.

So what do you think?
