yeah create a new game yourself, just dont open it to public, and add AI players in the free slots, then start the game, you're done
there is only "very easy" AI in the official beta tho, wich basically is not even able to produce a proper amount of harvesters or anything, which means you can kill all the 3 other AIs in a 4 player FFA for example with just one tiny army - it's just a basic sandbox mode actually atm
if you want somehow stronger AI, check the custom written AIs from StarCrack etc., we have some posts about that in this thread

Great patch, hope the matchmaking logic is fixed now so i don't end up going against platinum players 3 games in a row.

it was never bugged. blizz said that during beta, you'll be matched to others as fast as possible so that they can collect more data from the increased number of matches.

i still hope they will change that for retail, or at least give us options to include that i cant be matched against gold and lower while being plat.
same for 2v2.. should be option to allow just xxx to be matched.. if ur plat, you can select only plat, if ur in gold you could select gold and lower.. that would work imho

allow people what leagues they'll play against? lol that's ridiculous. would never happen.
however people are expecting the final matchmaking to concentrate more on people of your own league as it's expanding the search early right now which makes you play against stronger/weaker oponnents more often than normal.
it's not a problem if it happens occasionally though, especially when you're moving towards a higher or lower league you'll have to be matched against people of that league more.
I don't really see a problem with playing against stronger oponnents sometimes. you'll barely lose any points when you lose that game anyway and you can probably learn a lot by playing against better oponnents.

how is asking to be matched with equal opponent , or when doing 2v2 3v3 or 4v4 as random to be matched with your skill lvl players.. in both teams, which is what i meant before..
if you diamond now.. you should be able to select match me with and against plat players only ( could use 1v1 ranking ) when you do some random 2v2 and you get matched with a guy whos playing his first game.. or second for that matter.. and i had one , and you yourself sitting in plat ( diamond now ) in both 1v1 and 2v2 , its ridiculous..
while i dont mind roflstomping gold players now and then, it just gives you false confidence feeling, which usually turns against you in the end.. when you face stronger players
i know we probably wont see that, but i still would love to have feature for at least team games, to select with what players you can be matched, and they hopefully wont allow random teams vs setup teams.. as setup team will always beat random.. and considering than rt and st had different ladders in wc3.. and its same in sc2 beta.. i hope they will make them different in retail..

keep in mind that right now, only a small fraction of people are playing the game (beta). Retail will have a MUCH larger player base = better matches.

plat vs gold is important though, cause it allows the gold guy to make big steps forward that he would have to grind to achieve, if no plat players versed him.

this is a must buy, the online content will have infinit possibilities and replayability.
but there are things we should look into, i been reading about being locked to our zone and the space of 10mgs to our maps.. hope it will change in the retail

The article makes it sound like you only get to play in the region you buy the game in..
And I never liked those seperate realms in the first place either - I like playing with people from all around the world and not being limited to one region, and I don't think that lag issues are the reason behind this choice.

If this is gonna be the case when the games come out, then its complete bullshit! They should leave it like with Warcraft 3 and just let it be up to the user which region he wants to play in! This will fuck up the eSport scene aswell, just overall sad and lame..

It's been known for quite a while that you only get to play on your region's server.
