No cons. Perfect way for people to practice, learn maps, etc… or players who aren’t good to still play a type of vs.

I want the bots to be good, how terrible! You’ve got the wrong idea.

And gotta agree with OP. All you’re doing is being unnecessarily hostile.

Niether of us are saying we dislike bots, learn to read man. We’re excited about bots - but valid concerns are necessary for quality. Quality in infinite is something I value.

> Realistically no players should lose when it’s 4vs2, bots won’t change the outcome but just speed up the game. The same team that should win, still wins, but it doesn’t take 5 minutes and you don’t have to go -25 to get it over with faster.
but the team whose teammate just left shouldn’t be punished for someone else leaving
ive seen people win 1v4s and 2v4s but a crappy bot that throws itself at the enemy and dies every time would ruin everything
this bot thing is either going to go really well or its going to be kinda bad for this reason

A leaver kills the game there and then. It’s a shame but the game is already over if the teams are even remotely balanced. The other team wins, gets a strong headstart and they should also not be punished for winning the game and causing someone to leave in frustration.
If you can win a 1v4 or a 1v2, the enemy team are so bad at the game then bots won’t change the outcome. The 4 players probably won’t be able to handle the easiest of bots if they can’t beat a single player as a team.
bruh, you seen any mint blitz videos
I think bots should be limited to bot specific playlists or custom games. I’m fine with playlists that indicate you will always have x amount of bot teammates/enemies, as long as there are still traditional playlists as well.
I would prefer bots not replace teammates that leave, due to the bot skill will probably not reflect the skill of the teammate that left. It will be either vastly better or worse, so basically 1 team will have an unfair advantage. I know it sucks when random teammates leave, but it happens. Sometimes it’s your team and sometimes it’s the enemy team. I would rather just finish the match down a few players and move on to the next one.
Well now we know the bots are actually as good as people I reckon they will be pretty seamless and could turn a 2 v 4 into an actual even fight
It would be really useful if the bots were good enough to replace quitters so games don’t get ruined by that
I hope they add Variety AI.
Eg if 3/4 members of your team leave and the AI take over, or in the vs AI modes. I hope some are really hard to kill, and others are standard/easy. That way it feels more like I am playing different players of different skillsets. Makes them feel more human that way.

They confirmed in Inside Infinite that there are 4 different difficulties of bots - Marines, ODST, Spartans, I forgot the fourth

lmao this escalated quickly
The plan isn’t to have bots replace or backfill human players in matchmaking. Bots will have a dedicated humans vs bots playlist (bot arena) and bots will be available in custom games. But nowhere does it say bots will replace humans in matchmaking.
Yea bots aren’t in MM and will not be stand ins or available JIP placements added in when people leave.
That aside, there’s only positives to having bots available to us. There’s so much you could figure out in the game, and they’re great for the very obvious use they were intended for. New players.
I know they are talking about bots but someone remembers the bots from Gears of War 2 compared to the ones from Gears 3 they looked completely silly. Those bots were very skilled with the sniper something like that I imagine with Halo Infinite.
It could be a bummer if we leave them weapons like rocket or sniper, but with the other weapons they could be more consistent.

Which ones? The bots in Gears of War 3 were atrocious. I had a 10+k/d and w/l in matchmaking largely because of bot replacements and no sbmm.
This is interesting. I never really thought about the introduction of bots this way.
I wonder if bots will support weaker players by following and pulling a few assits off of them, or purely contribute through kills?

hopefully the bots can be controlled with the ping system. like “follow this dude” lol
I hope they are like Rocket League in terms of how they will spawn/fill in games where if games are taking too long to find or if someone leaves a bot fills in, but in competitive they aren’t present at all.
