Social used to be fun 😏

Hopefully this is worth the read and the TC police don’t bury it

Bot back filling has killed social/quickplay. Its hard to stand playing for more that two matches now. Consolidating game types Im starting to understand. But TC, you kicked us in the balls twice this time with bot back filling.

  • They give away position while in cover, so playing smart is out the window

  • Constantly and unrealistically tapping us with lancer across the map

  • They get in the effing way all the time

  • Complete unrealistic AI, mostly pertaining to direcion & movements. Making combat predictions obsolete

  • They seemingly have that second shotgun sticking out of their backs :thinking: (animation never reflecs correctly in close combat)

  • No elimination match is evenly balanced, because the other team just farms kills to win now

  • Also makes matches boring as hell

  • Don’t get me started on the boltok (sarcastic)

  • I’ll edit more in later

Now to be fair TC and please I hope this is taken into consideration; I completely understand bots in objective gametypes like CONTROL, GRIDIRON, & KOTH. Outside of that l’m sure you can agree they take away from the goal intention of how the gametypes were ment to be played, so hear us out on this one please.

And to add something else. Private matches is not the answer due to all the mini dictators residing in them. Right now the community is being forced to choose between playing with bots or being tolled how to play. None of which is a position im sure TC wants their community/userbase to be caught up in.

I honestly came here expecting to disagree with every point you made.
Happy to say that I was wrong.

Gotta always fear the potential incoming TC Clown meme lol. Glad others concur with my observations.

I don’t even see the point in social now the ranked system has gone.

Comp is pretty much social with leaderboards, same apparent sbmm system in place if I recall.

I agree that they’re dumb and have perfect accuracy and always get in the way. They’re also not suited for games like TDM , Dodgeball or as the leader in Guardian.

So 2v1’s are better?

Bots are like vaccines, no one likes them but we need them to keep the game alive.
