Does Sins have drop-in MP support yet?

Just wondering if this has been added in either a patch or Entrenchment.

If you don't know what drop-in MP is, let me explain. This means players can come and go from a match. When a player leaves, the AI takes over until another player joins.

What kind of matches do most people play and how long do they usually last?

Average match time is roughtly give or take one hour. The lenght of the game depends mostly ont he skill of the players, the tactics they use and the layout of the map. Number of players or size of the map has little influence.

In most cases after 1 hour a victor will be decided, unlesta  stalemate occurs witch can take a logn time to break out of or take a short time. But it tends to take longer normaly.

I'd say to count on 1.5-2.5 hours for a 4v4 on the huge random single star, say.

Is there no "fast play" mod? Seems a mod like that could become very popular.
