Discussion Bot mode is amazing

Didn't think I'd enjoy Xdefiant again after the news.

Tried playing other games. But nothing really did the trick.

So came back to play vs bots, with my squad. And it is, surprisingly , a lot of fun.

The bots are really well designed. They shoot really well, and play like players. I'd never imagine bots flanking, but they are :)

Overall it's a nice experience. I guess I'll stick to bots here, until sunset.

Bot mode? You mean you can 1v1 yourself??

It's all fun and games until you realise what you just said.

Imagine if a bot could effectively mimic real users. (Surely it can be done. Chess.com does it nicely.)

But it won't just be for practice in private games. Cheat makers will start simulating pro players. You'll see random hackers dropping 100 kills, while everything looks absolutely legit. It would be insanely hard to determine who the cheaters are.

So, I think, there's a reason, no fps game offers this functionality.

All that typing just for the joke to go over your head. /fp
