Massive Bot Game in PvP...

I was forced into T2 again due to ridiculous queue times in higher tiers, and I was amazed that I got matched into this game.  

 

Why am I so annoyed?  Because while bot games can be “enjoyable,”  they don’t do anything for SR, and hardly help stats (if anything).  It is essentially wasted time for the sake of a game.  If there were two bots, I wouldn’t be upset…but THIS MANY?  Are you kidding me?  Fix this.

Agreed.

I wish bots would just be removed already, they don’t know how to play tactically. And they ruin team battles when each team is sticking together.

+1.

Bots in T2 lower are important part of people learning to play this game.

 

With that said, 16 bots? I don’t even have enough fingers to count that. I have to use my toes!

Bots always ruined PVP Team Battle :I

Oh no… is it happening more than just an occasional ?   

 

Wonder what will happen in Combat recon… is the lone Human automatically the Capt ?    Bots have no SR… so highest rated human would be the lone some soul ! 

 

  I sure hope this is just a glitch and it gets fixed ASAP… not sure that many people would want 10 to 1 ratio of BOTs to humans in PVP games

It’s just a picture of the team line-up with just me, an opponent, and 8 bots on both teams…

we all can see pictures just fine, it is on your end, tinypic might not work as well.

Lol, no. Bots dont do much, shooting random players with 100% accuracy with occasional beacon capture is not learning how to play. We should have better tutorials.

pvp against bots could be fun too. its easier then normal pve missions and you meet real players on opposite side :fed001: 

with current system you don’t even need tutorials. you play, have fun and learn how to play  :rudolf:

  1. Bot games are not fun, will never be fun, and suck the fun out of every game they are in (Can you tell I don’t like bots?)

  2. There needs to be a more streamlined way for pilots to learn the game faster.  Too many players are getting to T3+ with very poor stats; they clearly have been doing the wrong things since beginning and have not learned the higher-level aspects of the game.  Ex. Lots of players still don’t know about the full ship view vs. basic.

you meet bots in every pve mission and a lot of players like pve content  :004j:

sure some players would prefer only human opponents. i can understand this

Nothing prevents them from playing Invasion or PvE. 

 

PvP is called Player versus Player for a reason.

So why are their bots?

I don’t know but I’m one of those who want them out. At least out of the bigger games where they’re obviously not needed. Like a 12v12 combat recon or team battle. Bots are a liability to each team.

The issue was fixed already, is anyone still experiencing this?

Not since the OP.  It happened when there was a very low player base, so maybe it takes time to resurface.
