Bots and You!

[MartinPeiM16]

I miss it a lot!

I have always loved to join a friend on LAN playing, say, vs. 16 counter-terrorist bots only equipped with knives.

Seriously, I really really miss it. And I say miss it, because even though it is around these days, it was a MUST in a game back in the day.

Nice of you to bring this up =).

I dare someone to say they never fought off 16 bots with only their knives, yelling "Freedom!" the entire time...until someone whips out the Para.

it was me and my friend on battlefield 2. the game got a bug so it was as 2 against 165 enemys.... freedomeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!

best fun ever, coz they all rushed to kill us all the time

Unreal games had fun bots. I still break out UT2004 and have a couple of awsome rounds.

Timeplitter games and Counter Strike Scource are great games with fun bots.

Timesplitters + custome maze map + 3 other friends + virus = BEST. GAME. EVER!

Timesplitters? Hearing another human er....seeing the text of another human mentioning this game is amazing, that game is one of my favorite shooters of all time, nothing did what it did as well. By that I mean not taking itself seriously and allowing dinosaurs, gingerbread men, cavewomen, gangsters, robots into a frag fest.

You forgot ducks and calamari. Also bears and a tree.
And how dare you not mention the monkeys!

I loved the bots in Time Splitters, but the best were by far Perfect Dark's bots. The fact that there were so many different types made every game a completely different experience. Or if you just wanted to collect all the weapons and have some mayhem and fun, setup a game with you vs 7 meat sims and let the carnage commence. Good times...now bots are usually just plain stupid or non-existant. Left 4 Dead for example...if your playing a versus mode match and somebody leaves, your boned because although zoey can snipe a hunter from a mile away she doesnt understand the aspect of the corner. Now, if you'll excuse me I'm gonna go dig out my old perfect dark game.

I can't believe this thread opened with "Remember the day..."

I like bots, especially the God and Insane level type bots. Since they borderline cheat, they're good practice for when you fight other humans.

While I feel Robomonkey with the banana dispenser warrens mention I hated the monkeys in multiplayer, they ran mach 5 and were knee high, but could carry a chaingun and mow ya down haha. YOU sir forgot the hillbilly cactus that rode robo-legs! Let's not forget Corporal Hart my choice of character to use. Plasma Auto Rifle? Check, pew pew!

Because now bots are becoming extinct, the only bots on a game now are really only on single player, not "piss-about-and-have-fun" multiplayer. Bots won't cheat, hack or rage quit, they just try to kill you or do there objective, thats it. I'll meet a human once a months who wants to have fun rather then win, and bots are as close to that as possible
