Portal Mode

@Foofer37There is no official information as to what extent you can deploy AI soldiers, other than you can deploy them in a Portal match.

https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-briefing-exploring-battlefield-portal

That page clearly mentions using AI soldiers within Portal, but does not directly answer your question...

@Foofer37 it's been officially confirmed that you can also play Solo + AI Soldiers in your team against a whole team of AI Soldiers as well. (not offline, needs to be online tho)

That means, yes you can basically.

Even tho they didn't mention it'll be in Portal, as they just said in Battlefield 2042 in general.

But as we don't have RSP in BF2042 yet, but Portal will be some sort of a RSP where you can set up a server i guess if you can play against AI only, it'll be in Portal.

Greets,

@Its_Travis_199Aren't you going to request for singleplayer/splitscreen/LAN offline bot support?

@ChrisAWJBethel all the map environment, game mechanics, hit registration etc etc are all happening on the server side.  And EA have not off-line LAN party gaming high on their priority list of what should be implemented for this game next, so though it could be a lot of fun, honestly dont think we ever will see this happening as long as it stays in the hands of EA ownership.

@CyberDymeWhat a surprise! You're like twentieth person to tell me this! Can you provide me with the publication or statement from DICE confirming this?

I'm not sure exactly what kind of confirmation you're looking for.  There are no local play options available for Portal or any of the other modes in BF2042.  The only servers available are in fact hosted by EA / DICE. All Portal Experiences must be created through EA / DICE's Portal website.  ....again, you cannot do this locally on your own system.
