DICE, please reconsider your stance on AI bots in large modes.

I know I'm not alone and I know that this particular sub community might not be receptive to this idea, but I don't buy competitive multiplayer games to play against bots. I don't want to have AI ...

Also new is the introduction of AI Soldiers (Artificial Intelligence) to the series. As a multiplayer-only experience, it’s important for us to let you play Battlefield 2042 when and how you want. Here is what that looks like in the All-Out Warfare experience of Conquest and Breakthrough:

Multiplayer – AI soldiers are used for server-filling capabilities, ensuring your matches remain full, no matter your location.

Co-Op – Allows you to play together with friends, against AI soldiers.

Solo – If you wish to perfect your skills for multiplayer, you can even play alone against AI soldiers.

Too early to read a lot dude...just point me to where it says no option to 'turn off/disable/no ability to roll the game without bots'.

Sounds like bots in Conquest and Breakthrough to me.

  No clue man, still nothing says...100% no way to roll any map without bots.
  I'm not worried about it or this game making bank in sales......me and my clan already have plans to party up, group up and roll with and against the AI. 🍻

    TheVerge asked EA for clarification and got this reply.
    "EA will be backfilling those servers with bots to keep games populated, the company confirms to The Verge, and there’s currently no plan to let you turn that off."

EA confirms to The Verge, and there’s currently no plan to let you turn that off.

  I'll believe it when I see it in the gaming notes and roll the beta/finished product. Until then, I'm all for options are key, and it won't interfere with my gaming. Hopefully there will be an 'off/on switch' for those that don't want them....and those that do.

    Looks like we may (not confirmed obviously) see the option to turn off bots in custom games according to Flakfire: https://youtu.be/4c0BvcHSHx8?t=411

  @Popa2caps if you play battlefeild the servers will most likely have full servers like most bf titles, bots are for dead servers.

    Still knowing bots will be on the same server (as me) is enough to know I won't purchase the title. I need my actions to always be felt by real people no matter what. I absolutely enjoy Apex Legends, can't stand a second of Titanfall 2 multiplayer. I haven't played much (less than 3 hours each) of the Battlefront titles so no direct experience with bots in that.
    
    Also understand I'm not trying to get anything changed in Battlefield 2042. If people want bots, good, I myself don't. I'm perfectly happy playing different titles.
