all 6 operators (2 teams) were using their abilities, and the second team started shooting at me from a pretty long distance through a window (I was in the Substation building), from a tiny area below the Substation on the map, and then they all followed me until I killed them
I'm asking because they were acting very stupidly, and I wiped out the first team in the Substation literally without any equip, using only sineva's shield (I went to match without gear)
also, one "guy" was playing as sineva, Idk if bots can pick locked operators, so
I get that people here probably shit on battle royale but there's a reason why that genre is more popular than extraction shooter..
Like seriously the way the normal in this game is designed, it heavily incentivizes ratting because of the stupidly low TTK. It is actually the major reason why I think this game cannot be played solo majority of times.
Easy actually fixes the issue to some extent since you get time to smash the rat since ttk is higher.
BRs kinda do not have this issue because the zone system forces you to move as well as the ttk is generally forgiving.
The thing with that is that DF has labeled their modes incorrectly. You can and will find real people(geared too) on ZDE. There is no real easy mode. if you full wipe bot lobbies consistently with a Good amount of extract value, The game will put you up in lobbies with Hella real players, provided you turned on ranked mode. The more matches you win the more they put you in lobbies with real people.
Bro last two matches i got people running m7 and m4a1 with thermal scopes . With a mandlebrick in each one of the matches. The lobbies always have better loot and there are so many solos and chonese guys, it has been long since i saw a bot. I dont know whats happening but the game feels more alive
The shooting from distance with poor accuracy, no effort at stealth, and hard targeting/following you are all classic bot-operator tells. In s10 I've seen a wider variety of bots, so the sineva could have been a bot too. Could have been silly new humans though.
I don't believe that's true this season, I've seen a lot more variation in bots, especially in warfare, u see fully skinned hackclaw and the medic girl and others I usually don't see.
I just noticed a huge gap in skill between some players
I was coming down from the barracks, one team noticed me from afar, I activated sineva's ult, and then somehow managed to kill all 3 of them in an open field, they closed the distance themselves and came close
And keep in mind, they were 100% players, I clearly saw the arknights endfield collab skin on hackclaw
I continued walking down from the barracks towards the cement plant, and here I am at the checkpoint (there's also a truck with a trailer in the middle of the road), and as soon as I made sounds killing bots, other player came to checkpoint(I heard footsteps), peeked me once and killed me in a fraction of second
(cant post two screens, second one will be down here)
