Hey, Caterpepi. Any news on the offline AI front?

Not at the moment, I’m keeping tabs on the tracking we have for the issue. It’s a fairly high priority for the team and will likely need a hotfix or patch to be fully resolved. If there’s any updates on the situation, I’ll be sure to let you all know!

Thanks for everyone who contributed to bug report this issue on the #bug-report forums :slight_smile:

I bought legacy of the void, wings of liberty and heart of the swarm but cant play offline anymore. I wish there was a dvd version like with the 1st starcraft which I am playing as I wait for SC2 to return offline.

I am playing my saved replays then take control. Its the only way I can play offline now.

Very sad indeed. I only own SC2 for the offline melee which allows cheats, extreme difficult AI, and super fast speed games. Without that, I’m not a SC2 or Blizzard customer anymore.

Which is expected, heigk. No matter the topic, you can’t violate the Code of Conduct, which you did in that thread you attempted to start.

Hey, all! It looks like our team has a fix in place for this issue. It’s unclear on when this may be released, but an update or hotfix should be on its way at some point to resolve the offline games issue.

If there’s a more fixed build or date that I can share with you all, I’ll be sure to let you know. For now, please be on the look out for an update!

Thank you all for your reports :slight_smile:

Downloaded patch. Shows team portraits again. Started game and it counted down from 3-1, but starts the game, rather than ends it. Looking good Blizzard, thank you so much for fixing this.
