I think that they figured that practice mode is not needed, since there is an awesome russian/german campaign to plow through when not online.
makes sense

I dont know if you'd be able to answer the question, but I was inherently curious about it. What exactly is the current issue with coop that requires it to be delayed?
Im just a bit confused that the bots work for MP, but not the Practice Mode and Coop, whats the difference there that caused one to require more work?

I think the bots work fine in co-op, just that the gamemode of co-op is not thoroughly finished as well as the mp, so little patching and intergrating before everybody complains on launch that co-op is bugged.
There is always the campaign, why do you still want the mp maps with bots

Yes. When there aren't enough human players in a tank, bots will fill the remaining roles (i.e. if you're driving and there are no other humans around, a bot will fill in the gunner/commander role, and another bot will fill in the hull MG role, although you will ultimately have command of them).

Cant say but i know there are different modes in MP where you can just fill the game with AI instead of players you just go to LAN and switch over to offline mode on your own network re name the server to whatever you like then you fill it up with bots.
Before you jump into a game i would think you would have these options like what guns to fight with or maybe how many AI players you would like etc :IS2:.
So i guess even without a practice mode it will not matter because you can train your skills properly with better bots on your own offline server.
Sounds awesome doesent it

I apologize for my confusion, but this is a rather important part of the game to me, as I am almost entirely forced to keep Steam in offline mode.
So there will be no practice mode, but we will be able to create our own offline servers for LAN and single-player games (outside of the campaign)? And these offline multiplayer matches can be populated with bots?
If this could be officially clarified that would be great. I'm looking forward to the campaign, but it is nice to be able to just hop right into a given map and take on some bots - especially for people like myself who are limited to offline play.

Nice to see everyone's up to date in the dev team.
I think we need to define the practice mode we expect
