And why is that?



I can speak for him but this is My reason, Computer AI is only as good as it is programed they tend to follow a Basic set of Instructions so you can find out its Patterns and Habit's and it is a Sitting Duck easy Kills, Easy Points, Easy everything AI In Mulitplayer Bore me they have never been a Challenge except in Red Faction 2




That's what I'm assuming Kaos' reasoning would but i believe that argument doesn't apply here. If they have already created AI that is good enough to play alongside you in co-op, it should be reasonably effective in multiplayer.


As i said originally AI in multiplayer could be the only ones who can wear the robot skins. Therefore you would know which enemy were the bot, and even if you could predict what the bots were going to do, wouldn't that be kind of authentic, as in real life, robots are AI controlled and would therefore be predictable?


At the end of the day, if you didn't want to play with/against bots, you wouldn't be forced to.




i want to look like a robot

because it would detract from the multiplayer aspect, when im playing a multiplayer game if i get killed by a person thats acceptable but if i get killed by a bot that is not and i sort of feel cheated out of my game. but having huge bot battles with 4player co-op would be cool, one pirate faction waging war on the other.

i think it would be fine for local or private matches.  basically for practice, or to just mess around with your friends.

The only time i would want bots in multiplayer is if someone disconects. There were a few games where 3 team mates left or lost connection and it gave the other team a huge advantage.

You should try out this adapter. I have one, and it's awesome. I think play-asia.com still has some in stock.

Agreed, you don't have to like it, but give us the option.
