So is the offline/single player mode ever coming back? I’m getting tired of only being able to use cheat codes in the editor’s test game. And I’m pretty sure the editor uses some roc rules and some tft, it is so confusing with the unit prices and amounts of improvement with upgrades. But that is an other story.
Warcraft 3 used to be my sandbox and toy, now the only copy I have left is in my old laptop from which as a precaution I’ve physically removed wifi antenna and ethernet port, haha try to update now to battle net client! lol

I don’t get it, what’s the problem in opening a map using world editor to play offline and use cheats in there? If you want to play an offline custom game with cheats this will solve all your problems. Campaign maps already accept offline mode with cheats. Besides, if you want to use cheats in game why are you getting confused with unit prices and upgrades? A simple “greedisgood 100000000” will solve all your resources problems.
You may want to consider that some maps are protected (specifically some custom ones) so they can’t be opened in the world editor in the first place and it takes a long time to load maps. This is why single player mode is important and it is just weird that they removed it.

it takes forever to do so. competitive players use that alot to test out buildorders and testrun certain things. you also cannot configure AI in the editor.
even grubby does this alot and he knows alot about the game. still he resorts to singleplayer cheat to test and look stuff up.
acting like this is some weird fringe case is pretty disconnected.

Maybe HU vs UD is enough for you kind sir but I want more. With the option to use cheats. And yes while I could do that how is it going to solve my timing when practicing build orders? Allyourbasearebelongtous would also solve all my problems! But thats not what I’m after.
And why do you need cheats to practice build orders? You can do that playing custom offlines games in local network. And you can get a better preview of your resources usage and build order playing without cheats cause you can’t cheat in real games.
There are no offline games any more, that’s why we can’t even save them player vs 12 x AI games.
If there were, I would be working around this just by playing the same game over and over again from different save points but now every time I decide to try to do something different in some point I have to start from scratch. It didn’t use to be like this and that’s why I’m asking if the single player and cheat codes are coming back or not.
I can still play with my friends, you know, just the same way than we’ve been playing for a life time but with new graphics. But I can not play solo against the AI the way I used to, be it real game play or not.

“There are no offline games any more”, ok there’s nothing more i have to say to you.
Even if you can start a versus game with an AI without an internet connection there are missing huge parts (to me at least) of what the “single player” mode used to be.
I now know they are not so important to you, but I still want to be able to save my games and use cheat codes. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me.
It would be a lot if Blizzard would tell just us are they coming or not. Not knowing is the worst.
If not, then it would be easier to “let it gooooooo”
And if they are coming, which I hope, then I would patiently wait all the time it takes them to make the features work in Reforged.

Since there are portraits and the like attached to the campaign, I doubt they will allow people to play the offline campaign with cheats.
Maybe I’m wrong.
Right now the campaign is the only place where the cheats work so I thinks that’s not the case.

I’ve never actually tried the cheats, just assumed they would be disabled.
I’ve already cleared the campaign on Hard (finishing last level as soon as I get home, its a sure win) but can someone really use cheats to beat the campaign and still unlock the achieves? That would stink.
Yes, I’ve tested it. And yeah it stinks big time, that’s not what I want cheats for 
But good luck with your final level!
Cheats work in Campaign with the exception of the Motherland Cheat. Because now the TFT campaigns are together with the RoC campaigns motherland does only bring you to the battle of Hyjal. If you want to play Rexxar campaign you need after this manually win every TFT campaign mission with instant win cheat to get to founding of Durotar Campaign.
