Usually I'm not a dick enough to ask that, I just haven't heard of bots in multiplayer for quite a while. If true that's fantastic. I wonder if you can still level up in like a separate bot-mode or something.
not sure, I hope that they keep the original multiplayer without bots, but only have the bots for the training modes and in private matches as an option, that could be pretty fun.freedomweasel said:It was my understanding that most of the multilplayer was available for play with bots. You gain XP and level up just the same as in multiplayer, but with a separate tree. That's what I got from a recent article at least. Hopefully it's useful.C95J said:only in certain training multiplayer modes though I think (and of course single player)Squilookle said:Can someone pinch me?
Here at last, is a triple-A FPS title bringing bots back to a genre from which they should never have strayed? Man, I'm sold. I'm buying this sucker. Bots in FPS games needs a comeback and I'm damn well going to support it. In this one move Treyarch has won more respect from me than Infinity Ward ever had. Good job, team.
Um, so yeah... discussion value. Tell us your best in-game moment with multiplayer bots. Can be any game. One of my favourites was setting up a king of the hill match in a Perfect Dark arena called Fortress, which had a gladiator like pit in the centre. A shield in the middle, and lasers all around, I'd watch all those HardSims rush in and laser each other to win the hill. Change the team names to friends of mine and it was comedy GOLD!
Most recently Vegas 2 terrorist hunts have been the most fun. Before that probably Unreal 2k3

I hear you'll be able to customize their equipment. Probably not individually, but I guess you can make them use only pistols, or only assault rifles, turn off killstreaks and stuff like that. Pretty much everything you need to be able to have actual fun unlike in CoD online where every ************ is 13 years old with a noob tube and a grenade launcher attachment.TheRightToArmBears said:YES! I'm so sold for this. All fps need bots, it's fun! How exactly are they being implemented? Can you just chuck them in splitscreen to add to your team? How will classes work with them? Could you get some as a killstreak reward?
I'll have to wait and see. I really, really want this game.
That sounds incredibly awesome (or awesomely incredible).ImprovizoR said:I hear you'll be able to customize their equipment.

Combat Training
News: September 20th, 2010393 Comments
Train. Train. Train. If you want to be the best, you've got to know your stuff ? your maps, your equipment, and your abilities. Hesitate and you're done for.
Welcome to the new Combat Training mode, soldiers. Strengthen your skills in Free-For-All or Team Deathmatch on any multiplayer map against a full set of Practice Dummies. Practice alone or train with other players online. The experience and currency you earn in Combat Training is saved separately from your online multiplayer soldier, but everything you unlock remains within the mode.
Combat Training is a great resource for all player levels.
New players and those typically interested only in single player can jump in to learn the basics of the multiplayer experience and get a feel for different loadouts. Familiarize yourself with the maps and evolve your fighting strategies before joining competitive play.
Veterans can use Combat Training to their advantage, as well. Work out new strategies and fine tune loadouts without affecting your kills/death ratio. Nail down formations and team chemistry with your clan, and choose the maps you need to work on to get a better sense of spawn points and player flow.
Happy hunting.
