Yes, it has what has been traditionally (in the franchise) called
"terrorist hunt" (basically like multiplayer with bots), but it
doesn't try to wrap it into any real story or campaign.  The bots with
AI are mainly put there for the benefit of co-op terrorist hunt (a key
feature of the last few R6 games), and of course the easiest way to
pull a single player game out of thin air is to simply take the co-op
game and make it solo.. heh

The people bitching about the lack of a campaign are talking about a
REAL single player mode.  But, hopefully they will be happy to learn
that Far Cry Primal is single player only. 

I actually think the "situations" are pretty fun.  I think they really
exist only as a way to get more XP without playing online and act as a
sort of expanded tutorial (i.e. it's one thing to train on the
individual gadgets but its another thing to learn to use them in
practice).  But Im spending most of my time in multiplayer.
