Let me start by saying that, yes, live enemies need to be removed from what is supposed to be a pve mode. Any player who wants a pvp experience can play literally any other mode in the game. It's that simple.
Now the bad news. I can't tell you with any certainty, but I have a feeling that the mode population increased pretty dramatically last season with the introduction of "evolved." That's based on nothing more than my own intuition, but I feel like "players in queue" and queue times are respectively high and low, meaning people are using the mode a lot. Obviously the quality of matchmaking is just as bad - maybe worse - than it is in the rest of the game. I'm no longer sure I know what it is that I would consider a skill-balanced match. I'm not sure that there can ever even be such a thing in a game as complex as battle royale. But I'm absolutely sure that I rarely experience it. I'm sure there are many matches that I quit out of without really properly testing the mettle of my live enemies, and it's entirely possible that I could win more matches than I do just by being a little more tenacious. But the entire point of bots is that I don't want to keep testing myself. That's what ranked is for. That's what pubs is for. Bots is for fun. Or it's supposed to be. Live players make it not fun. Whether they're enemies or teammates. Not fun. I know I keep queuing into the mode and that's as good as telling the developer that they're doing a great job. But they're not. Respawn, you're not. So I'm here to add my voice and tell you that, despite my continued presence in the mode, bots is a sewer and it's because you allow more than one single live player into a match at a time. Stop doing that.
