    I'm having some fun on the campaign but as I can't connect to battle.net I am keen to kick up an AI game to practice for multiplayer. Problem is, when I click "play against AI" it takes me to a kind of... lobby type screen, searches for a while, then tells me it can't find any games, and the "create a game" button is greyed out.

    Completely confused here!

    When it searches, it looks for maps. The maps are usually checked online. If you can't choose a map, you cant create a game . Think it needs access to battle.net at least once. Since you have (do you?) bought the game you already had at least one connection to battle.net, so try it again with connection!

    welcome to 21st century. This is our new copyprotection thanks to all the piracy.....

    BUT: If it blocks you out, how did you manage to start up campaign at all?!

    About 3 trips to the local McDonalds and I'm not going again, I'll make do witht he campaign.

    Ironically, if there is a crack available, this will only push legit players towards illegit means. This is the Activision is Activision-Blizzard. The best and the wors tin gaming all rolled into one, monstrous.
