Bot Royale mode is a joke.
I was kind of excited to see what I thought was a full BR practice mode to unwind/warm up in when I'm not doing well in standard/competitive. Instead I get a buggy mess of a partial battle royale on ...
I just gave it a shot, because I was interested in how it worked... And... Jesus... It's bad. Almost enjoyably so though. I was playing through one round, because, why the hell not... and, the first bot squad I come across... There's just one fuse, standing in a room, firing his knuckle cluster at a wall, not even looking at me. So I knock him, then watch as he crawls backwards through a door... shuts it... opens it... crawls through it... shuts it... opens it... crawls through it... shuts it... opens it... Again and again and again. Until finally a Lifeline ran in and helped him up, where I just knocked them both, until finally a Wattson came in, and I knocked her too.
Then, I'm running down to The Epicenter, the ring is coming in, and there's another squad coming up the hill (towards the encroaching ring) There's a "fire fight" I hesitate to use that phrase, but there you go, and I decide, to heck with it, I'm wandering off.
Both my bots, and the enemy squad die in the ring.
I'm wandering around now, it's just me and one other squad left, I'm trying to find them, minding my own business, having fun with two Mozambiques and two P2020s, when finally I see the enemy squad coming down from Fragment East to West, just kinda... strolling through the ring.
So I throw a Thermite, just because I wanna see what the AI is gonna do with it... And, to it's credit, they didn't all walk through it....
Two of them did.
The third jumped off the bridge into the Lava...
All three dying immediately and I "Won" the round.
