You can do single player versions of coop maps and missions. You do not have any AI teammates at this time, but eventually that will change. You can spawn friendly AI with a console command, but you cannot customize them or order them around, nor will they do anything until they spot an enemy or get shot at.

The roadmap does show single player campaigns as a goal, but it may be a while yet.

I'm also curious about Solo with AI team mates if I feel like playing alone.

So it seems the AI is smart?

seeing as how NO ONE besides the devs for ready or not and 6 days in fallujah are even attempting squad based single player, this is very highly anticipated for me. when was the last time this type of game was even made? maybe a decade ago? every single realistic game coming out these days is multiplayer only. it gets tiresome.

arma 3 and all its dlcs are crap imho, it's technology from 2 decades ago. and rather than make good use of their enfusion developments which they made available for a stupid zombie game rather than their flagship title, they're going to save it for arma 4 which will come out in 5 years if we're lucky.

Enlisted is doing it but squad teammates are stupid.

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway (2008) was, I think, the last game with good SP squad mechanics.

I agree with you. I love the realistic feel of guns, 1-hit deaths, methodical approach to objectives, etc. But for some stupid reason, these days such gameplay is associated with "clans", "community servers", "communicating" (meaning non-stop talking over a $5 distorted mic), "recruiting", etc. Some of us are not comfortable talking to total strangers over the microphone, specially since I'm not a native English speaker. I love working with my team and supporting my squad's tactics. I just don't see why do I need to hear 10 people screaming in my ear non-stop to achieve such gameplay.

"Tank around the corner!! Tank around the corner!! Shoot it!! Where's the AT??? Shoot the tank!!!! Take cover!!!! Throw smoke!!!!! Hahahahahah!!!! Wow THAT WAS CLOSE!!!!!!!!"

Dude. I'm not your friend ok.

Yesterday I was playing Post Scriptum as a radioman and the SL was like: 'radioman, on me!'. I know how to play radioman. I know I have to stay around the SL. In fact, I am around. Stop saying that.

Then another player from another squad showed up and started to tell me via local chat that they needed a radioman in another place. My squad chat was busy and I had this other guy also telling me a lot of information, and I'm not an English speaker. All I heard was noise. Finally I turned off the PC because my gameplay had been consisting of basically hearing strangers shout each other.

(It doesn't help that I'm 37 years old.)

There are players here that are older.
