What’s this I’m hearing? Not worried about matchmaking. Are they in Customs? Are they in Forge?
Please answer quickly, so I know whether or not to run out and buy a $300 bottle of wine to celebrate, or to pass it off as another let down in life.
EDIT: Okay, I get it now. It’s a matchmaking game mode. I’m not trying to complain, but what me and about ten billion others have been crying about for the last ten years was to have bots in Customs like CoD does, and be able to place bots on our Forge maps to test them out and play with. Not matchmaking, lol… It’s cool. Either way I’m looking forward to Halo 5 in general.
There’s a special mode called warzone. In that mode 2 teams of 12 players fight each other in a btb style game but the map is 4 times bigger. In addition, bots will spawn all over the map including some mini-bosses. The first team that reaches 1000points wins.
It’s basically a mix of Big Team Battle on a very large map scale and like a firefight with AI’s spawning around the map. It’s red vs blue and you guys have to kill each other to get points, also to get points you can take down enemy AI’s that spawn. First to 1000pts wins and there will be a variety of vehicles and such to choose from.

Ohh, okay. Sounds neat, but I’ll hold off on any cerebrating for now. I only ever really wanted NPCs in regular Customs and be able to place NPC spawn points in Forge. Something me and many others wanted for a billion years.
we may or may not have the mp bots in other game modes or be able to play with them in customs. we simply dont know yet but it does seem we can ally the ai with one team or the other as well as have them on their own judging from the reviel trailer.
The day Halo starts mixing AI with human players in the more traditional game modes, will undoubtedly be the final dying days of Halo. It’s fine to make a brand new mode like they have, and use AI there…but the second it spreads into the traditional halo playlists (and it will, I’m sure) is the day they do in fact kill Halo.

so halo adding in mp bots, something not un common among arena shooters, is bad? in one game mode at that?
i wouldnt mind them in btb objective or any other large player roster gametype so as long as it is known that theyll be there or not. a warzone playlist under the social playlist wouldnt hurt.
if it spreads to a game mode where your preformance matters like ctf or slayer then its a problem.

I feel you and I think 343 may have listened to our feedback the wrong way and misunderstood. What me and about ten billion others have been crying about for the last ten years was to have bots in Customs like CoD does, and be able to place bots on our Forge maps to test them out and play with. Not matchmaking, lol… I hope 343 knows what they’re doing here.

What are you complaining about exactly? It’s not like 343 has said anything about AI being only in 1 game type.

Huh? Why would they force every game type/Hopper to use AI?
