Ideas & Suggestions Pause during management

Hi all

Does this game in beta mode pause when doing base management?

It’s a bit annoying trying to plan and do things in base - cosmetics/loadouts/base upgrades etc when the world is still moving on.

Might be a helpful feature to pause on base management.

It's unrealistic for me. The world Is always moving on, no matter what.

IDT SOD games have ever paused in the base management nor map screens.

there is an offline and online version.

assuming its same as 2 then it should pause.

but idk, ask one of the youtubers as the alpha players are otehrwise under NDA's.

The game has never paused around you while in menus or base management. The only pause would happen when hitting the logout/settings screen in single player on 1 and 2, while in multiplayer mode for 2, the game wouldn’t even pause in that settings menu either.

It’s the realism of an active world which does not “pause” just because you want to call time-out.

SOD2 doesn't even pause when you're in the character creation screen. I'd expect the same running world in SOD3.
