What is the purpose of Bot Leagues?
The purpose of Bot Leagues is to get familiar in a realistic way with a high-ranked ships and Destroyers of Tier V or Rank 13-15.
What are the specialties of Bot Leagues?
The specialties of Bot Leagues - (PvE mode) is, that you can complete all contracts from Rank 1-15, even if it’s branded as PvE, it comes under PvP jurisdiction.
Can you be more precise?
Only bots are playing against you. Each bot carries 4 ships, which is the maximum limit.
Each individual bot has at least 2 Secret Project ships minimum, having the same ship class or role.
3rd ship is usually a standard or a premium ship, 4th one is a Destroyer. Of course, all ship ranks are 13-15.
How many bots will be available against a 5-men Squad or Wing?
Here we come under the fray! 5 players will be matched against 10 bots, which means that they will have the upper hand.
This means that bots will own twice as many ships than players. To make matters worse, each bot will be upgraded fully with synergy levels, up to level 10 and each bot will fully utilize the set of boosters and even implants! Equipment will also be the best, which means Mark 4 or Mark 5. What really makes them threatening is the Secret Project builds, which can be fully customized and equipped or suggested by elite players. Bots will use any advantage that they can get, but there will be no more bot bonuses, like extra durability and extra damage from the main weapons.
What about the reward system?
It works exactly the same as in PvP Leagues, but here you can get an instant match, if you got at least 5 active players in your team.
Why do you think this is a good idea?
People who want to play Leagues, suggested to me that it would be a nice to have a Bot League as well. In case, if there is noone active in PvP Leagues, you can always switch to PvE - Bot Leagues.
It will also give the developers means to better test their AI intelligence further and to see overall statistics with realistically fitted ships.
Secret Project ships may become more famous and Desired. Same goes for other ships of rank 13-15.
