You can pause in single player games, but you have to enable pausing in the advanced options menu when you set up the game. Saved games are possible, but require the use of a third-party program called Dedcon (which is a dedicated server for Defcon), and is not a particularly easy thing to set up. As to a "next patch," I get the impression that IV have moved on to new projects, and that new patches are unlikely (possible, but unlikely).
