Same problem here as everyone else is having. I don’t spawn as what I chose and there are no opponents. Online mode is a non-starter for me due to latency issues and bandwidth usage. Online play just plain sucks with my system.
I use offline mode because I have terrible connection (I lag out of solo games)…, I also use it to let my kids play while I’m trying to work so they don’t use all of the bandwidth. We’re 2 or so patches in, I doubt it’s getting fixed within the next 6 months, so I guess I’ll have to look elsewhere.
The outcome looks promising.

Wow I haven’t played this game in over 5 years. For some odd reason I got in the mood. I setup an offline game I played for 40 mins until I realized I was by myself in the map. Haha.

Yes, I have had way to many problems trying to load games. I use two monitors, and it will switch to my main every time I load something. When I select vs. ai , it doesn’t function properly and loads a random race and no ai. Please fix this… or if I can go back to the old patch that would be dope too. For now at least.
Ran in this problem today. Very unhappy

Hey all,
Good news! With 5.0.3, the offline issue appears to be resolved.
I was able to successfully start up a game in both offline modes.

It is still not working with me. I’m playing on eu servers if that makes a difference.
Ya this patch didn’t fix anything for me either. Everytime I start a game as the terrans I become the protoss, the countdown happens, then i win. It’s very annoying. I’m really only playing this game for the offline.

What region are you playing on?
What SC2 version shows on your launcher?
I can’t even update my game. The game client says it’s on 5.0.3, but the game says it’s still on 5.0.2
hmm found out on asia and usa its updated but not on europe. So i guess i have to keep waiting.
Indeed! The patches are going out at different times.
I have a theory though. If you use one of the other regions to get the patch, as long as you don’t log into Battlenet, the servers will never know what version you’re playing. Thus, you should be able to play offline customs normally (because your client is technically patched).
You just won’t be able to log into EU until the patch is rolled out there.
