ODST was the perfect bot difficulty I was wishing for because it’s a fair difficultly for most players. Could be interesting to change the bot level based on the player who left’s MMR but I doubt they could or would do that
I see so -Yoink!- if you do -Yoink!- if you don’t. The current bots ruin every game.
I think they should be completely removed for any game type that is kill based. They are just free points for the other team and they do not contribute. I have seen about 1 kill for about 200+ deaths from the bots.

Okay, you’re the entire problem. better than half the playerbase? During the beta, when players had literally never played the game before, I played against Spartan level bots and won by no less than 15 kills every single match. And I was not typically the best on the team either. The Spartan bots are still worse than 90% of players.
Yeah I’ve heard people suggest that but personally I agree, I think it’d probably just mess stuff up and make people mad. I think the ODST bots are okay, but based on my experience with fighting bots during the beta, I just don’t think they can measure up to players.
Well that is what it’s supposed to do, but they’re making it fill with only the ODST bots, not the Spartan ones, which I think is a mistake.
- Why i am the entire problem? I’m not even a tiny fraction of the problem, since i have no influence over the decisionmaking whatsoever. This is just a disgusting personal attack made by you.
- You do know that you are comparing the people in the flights to the entire playerbase right now, do you? Only a fraction of the total playerbase is signed up for the flights, and the fast majority is above average in skill.
- 90% are better then Spartan Bots? I already had a match where i had to play with 3 lesser skilled players who were completely destroyed by the 2 ODST bots in the enemy team. They were so destroyed that i couldn’t even carry them anymore (and the 2 players in the enemy team were also worse then the bots). Only me and the bots were going positive…
I think you are (massively) overestimating the skill of the lower half of the playerbase…
I even had a player in Bot Bootcamp who couldn’t even kill a marine bot, and he/she WAS trying, LOL.
Yeah in objective they’re solely beneficial over being a man down so I agree; in slayer modes I think it’d be fine if they were Spartan level, as those can maybe at least match some players, so it’s like having a so-so player on your team. The ODST bots still get smoked by players every time though. Bots are always just gonna be too predictable to be that good in regular modes.
nah, during the beta I still regularly won against the Spartan level bots. If even they aren’t good enough to match players, ODST level ones certainly aren’t.
Yo do realize they’re already doing it, right? This is an update that’s already happening. Also, this is a flip-a-switch type of change; literally just adds a bot at the ODST difficulty vs. the Spartan difficulty. It would require no more work.
