It looks like the single player part is not functional yet... When will it work? I would love to play, but unfortunately, I'm constantly interrupted while playing, so I avoid playing multiplayer...
If you mean playing without real people you can do that right now: create custom game and run it before anyone join, then you'll play with AI. Offline gameplay will be only available after release.
Huh, how are you able to run launch the game solo? I click ready and it just sits there waiting for someone else to join (apparently). I'm trying to test system settings/performance right now without dragging other players down with me in the event I grossly miscalculate my system's performance.
