Also, I can't find the Uplay option to go into offline mode, so I guess that blipping Focus on every 30 sec. I haven't tried turning off online mode in the game's menu since the last two updates, so maybe it doesn't work anymore to keep people from entering your game.
However, that doesn't stop the challenges popping up for you to accept (same as with turning off online mode in the game's menu), but I found the popping up challenges easy enough to ignore. Luckily, having someone get into your game can be avoided with the Focus mode blip trick. I wish they would at least let you play the game as if nobody was hacking you, but you can't do any other mission or activity or even fast travel to a hideout while being hacked. Whenever I realize someone is hacking me, I just take a 3 min break and walk around. I seriously hate this forced nature of the multiplayer. It was in doing this that I found that I never got invaded if I activated Focus mode with enough frequency. So, I kept testing Focus mode during one session so that I could at least make a mad dash to avoid the invader getting close enough to me to even start hacking. Somewhere along the line, I'd heard that you can know if another player has entered your game if nothing in the game actually slows down when you activate Focus mode. I had some fun with that, but I'm not really all that into pvp in general, so I tried to go back to what I really like to do with this game which is to turn on the music, cruise the beautiful city, find things to jump with vehicles and do the random crimes that pop up. After I'd completed the game, I thought that I'd try turning online mode back on to earn skills by collecting noteriety points. Unfortunately, this causes your noteriety points earned in online modes to be reset to zero. Back then, I did what others have suggested by turning off online hacking in the game's options. Then I'd forget what I had been doing before I was interrupted. I'd be going to do something, then get hacked and have to divert to do that. Avoiding hacker interruptions into your game this way allows you to keep noteriety points that you may have earned during online activities with other players, so there is no need to turn off online mode in the game menu and have your noteriety points reset to zero.Ī little back-story: Early in the game, I found it annoying to have my game interrupted by other players.
Also, I've never gotten hacked while doing one of the random crimes that pop up on the map. I don't know what the exact frequency of activating Focus mode is needed to keep invaders out, but I'll guess that a short blip of Focus every 30 seconds is enough.
I've found that if I activate the Focus mode enough intermittantly, I never get any other players intruding and trying to hack me.
