-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Any way to play it single player and get value out of it?
Well you can play the Antistasi mod single player but it will be what lots of people would describe as "super hard mode" since you'd essentially be playing as a one-person guerilla against a significantly superiorly armed BLUFOR force for a significant amount of time until you have the necessary funds to field additional allies in your squad (who are bots and are generally armed with really dogwater equipment meaning you gotta take time to help equip them with the gear they need.)
I think the greatest lessons you can learn from single player runs is how to actually self-learn and apply Asymmetric warfare tactics as a lone player against the AI controlled enemy forces in terms of learning when and how to properly engage and disengage enemy forces, use remote controlled iud splosices for ambushes, mentally keeping track of yourself looting for better equipment so you don't stay so long the enemy response forces get the drop on you, etc.
All great game lessons to learn and more, but remember it's more fun with friends!
