please make singleplayer/coop version available

this game is amazing, but the player base ruined it. an idea would be to have an online and private server. world 15 was perfect. offline could just be world 15 (if you ever want to reset it yourself you would have that option). it's understandable if it couldn't do coop, because online would still be available.

the fear would still be there (you couldn't just run up on a pack of wolves with no armor, you'd still have to have palisades/brickwalls so a moose doesn't run through your place) but you would be able to pause the game for a few days and not loose sleep.

ive searched around for a long time and haven't found anything that scratches the survival itch quite like haven. every sandbox survival ive found either has npc villagers, story driven quests, advanced technology making it a shooter, is a city builder and/or the artstyle is 8bit, 2D, disney phone game style, or trying to be realistic.

h&h is one of a kind, very detailed and unique game. and actually losing the fear of pvp'rs in an offline/private server situation would be sad, but this would offer an option to those looking for the perfect survival game, that they could play on their own time.

you can go play C-DDA or DF adventure mode, ADOM or at least Zomboid right now.
All these games are better, deeper, more elaborate, more interesting than HaH in single player, and they all have permo death.
HaH won't take off in single player here a tree grows for 7 days, and 10 days between the cow's timing and getting milk. And without such brutal timings and restrictions on food that do the same (eat up your time) you will simply go down to mine 9, eat up stats for 1500, skills for 400, make yourself armor and weapons for 500q, and you will have nothing to do and no one to kill.

the whole beauty of playing HaH is that you are constantly in danger, if you take that away it would be a boring piece of shit.

i really like that for some reason you deside for other people what they want and what they will enjoy.
Solo/Coop version of haven does not hurt ANYONE, and shitters are still against it, because they can't even comprehend that different people enjoy different things.

i think for two years they are saying that they are "considering" community servers.
But at the pace of develompent, i think the death scenario is more realistic one.

Private/community run servers would be great.
