My experience with games that have bots is that it can get boring and infuriating. When you got teams that have mixed human and AI players, the team whose AI bots commit the most errors will cause that team to lose. AI bots lack any idea of context and fear that humans do, so they lack that sense of self preservation in a match, causing them to lose their units. Once that happens, one team will end up rolling the other. Also to compensate for the lack of intelligence a bot has, developers allow them to in effect, cheat, such as knowing where you always are.

Also winning too much on coop can get too boring. A game with PvP and you with a win loss rate of 50% will hold your interest better than a coop game when you have a win loss rate of over 90%.

allow groups in the academy?

there's the target shooting there which might feel a little like defending the line, the course to run through and what not.
just can't do it in a group.

might be a good spot to direct your brother at the moment anyway to get the hang of things.

If I'm not mistaken, MW5 will be quite mod-able and given how much Roguetech has changed Battletech, I would be very surprised if the modders didn't implement the full Mech Lab and the mechs into that game. So, hang in there, TC. Only a few more months to go Posted Image

We have bots, nothing will convince me otherwise.

Just go into any of the queues at any time of day and you'll encounter many of them.


I think you are confusing bots and NPCs. If we did have bots I would love some bots from Unreal Tournament 1 they would prove a good challenge for 90% of the player base.

Taking into account that it is near-impossible to get any match that is not QP in anything other than NA prime time...

Yeah..

BOTS..

Would not mind.

And that's saying alot about the state of the population..
