'Bots vs humans' playlist

The matches will be 4 human players pitted against 4 computer controlled players. You could search alone and be matched up with 3 other people searching in that playlist, or go in with a team of people. It will be a ranked playlist, and similar to the difficulty settings on you PC chess program, the low level bots will be very easy, and progressively get more difficult as you increases in rank. The best part about this playlist is that if one player on your team quits out of the game, lags out, or otherwise leaves the game, then one of the bots will be removed from the game. Thus, always having even teams.

lol, no.

Bots have always sucked and will for a long time.

campaign mode.

The average person who plays Halo is not that good, and besides, the great majority of Halo players are casual, not competitive.

That being said, the bots don’t need to have 100% accuracy and be able to have the best strafing or evading tactics. And matter of fact, if the bots were too good then that would discourage a great amount of people. Because again, most players are average at best, and don’t want to be spawn killed or headshooted every time by a human player OR robot. It would just be somthing fun and very interesting to play.

Also, it would be a playlist where I think people would really come together and fight hard to beat the bots. It’s that internal instinct that, although we as humans may fight and bicker, when another species (even if it’s a robotic one) attempts to hurt a human or take over humanity as a whole, we get this desire to fend off that threat at almost any cost. [Like was exemplified in “Independence Day” with Will Smith].

AI in Halo seems to get more stupid with each game.

This sounds and would be an utter joke.

I would say just add them in custom games IMO

343i already confirmed bots will not be available for multiplayer pvp mode. AI enemies will however be available in the Spartan Ops mode, which is replacing/expanding the firefight mode.

The Ai are stupid because they MAKE them stupid. Those are simply Static bots that are designed to follow pre-made waypoints or pathnodes for each level or map. These bots need to have a unique waypoint file for each map, or a pathnode system embedded in the map, if they are to function properly. Dynamic bots on the other hand, dynamically learn the levels and maps as they play. Also, they can even learn playing styles and tactics from each game they play.

So skillful bots can be implemented. And that’s why I keep and will continue to make threads about it.

We humans are slow to change but we will get there soon
they are slowly put bots into game play soon they will be in mp

OMG no way!!@

Next thing you’re going to tell me is that the Sun is hot.

I’m very aware of that. The question is WHY won’t they implement that into the game

Please see below this post

If 343i did add the option for custom game bots would you not buy the game ? If you did still but it, it would be a win win deal

My point was that since your reasoning for denouncing the idea of bots was based solely on their skill (suggesting that they are “stupid”), is negated by the fact that skilled bots can actually be created.

Why not just play firefight…

oh wait

It actually sound kinda fun.

… Spartan Ops.

point-less Firefight was bots vs humans. Campaign is bots vs humans, spartan ops will be bots vs humans, Another would be point-less

You pretty much told me the Sun is hot. Smart AI is obviously possible.

Will it ever happen? Seeing the trend. No.
