Bot Tactics Improvement

I have noticed that bots will ‘attach’ themselves to a player.

 

I find that when a bot attaches to me I almost always win that match, I attack objectives.

 

I also have noticed that when a bot attaches to a LRF pilot who does not approach objective points we almost always lose. I don’t mean to say it is bad for LRF to stay at long range, I am just stating what I have noticed. LRF are great please don’t turn the post into a you are bashing a ship type post.

 

Is it possible to set the AI so that it will ‘join’ with a pilot who is close to an objective point? Alternatively that it will seek out objectives on its own. Perhaps prioritizing by distance & state of that objective, IE two guard drones is better that than four. Setting a very high priority on an objective that is already being taken by a PC, whos ship is close to the objective.

 

Also bots are not grouping up in the attrition matches. They simply rush in.

this is old

 

its been like this for months. the bots attach’s to a random player in order to defend, and usually the bot that is attaching is a healer. 

 

usually bots rushes in and attacks the player that shots them.

They have always done that. It’s funny when they latch on to a disconnected or afk player’s ship. In Team Battle it means the team with the bot that does it will likely win because while the enemy bot will keep feeding kills their bot won’t.

Bots have no place in a PVP game and need to get removed.

What Snib says. Bots have nothing to do in a PvP game where they have no idea about objective (did you see bots picking up bombs with the intent of planting and not by accident?), and even in TDM they just suicide into the enemy. I play PvP to play against other players, bad or good, but with human behavior. An AI wont be a player for a long time.

I feel that the current player base makes bots a neccisidy for my time zone.

 

It would be nice to only see bots in 2v2 games.

 

Odviously not a big fan of them.

The bot should be edited in more aspects.

  • Attach to objective players like engineers or commands.

  • Increase KI

  • Remove unlimited sensor range that finds player all the time.

  • Decrease Aim - Equip them with Mk2/3 Modules/Weapons

  • They should avoid LRF fire or attacks by ship.

  • They should do the objectives alone if needed (Bomb planting for example.)

  • They should automatically choose the ship that actually supports your team better.

  • They should stay in your team, not front-dying.

My opinion is is that the bots are extremely stupid and extremely annoying, they find you if you try to transport the bomb and u r 15km away, they hit u while cloaking with ultimate aim, they have NO locking time, they have just overpowered abilities and they only dying.

  • Useless team spot.
