Watch Dogs: Deactivate online multiplayer
By default, online multiplayer mode is enabled for watch dogs. Clear the option if you don't want real players to interfere with your game.
Disable online invasions, multiplayer hacking and online shadowing
If you deactivate online mode, there are no more online invasions. This means that other players can no longer penetrate your game. However, you yourself can no longer participate in online hacking and shading. Also note that your level of awareness will be reset to 0 and all known level skills will be lost.
- Click on "Options" in the start menu or press the "Options" button during the game and then select the "Options".
- Select the "Online" option.
- The entry at the bottom is "Online Invasions". Disable this option by sliding the slider to the left.
- Confirm the settings again with "OK".
