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.
