I like how they stated long ago progression for co-op would work the same as multiplayer but now people were 'abusing' it ... Like oh no he has a 2.5x scope instead of a 2x scope!!!! so op oh no please dont play the game as intended!!!! oh no he has a camo!!!!!!!!!!!!! It worked well day 1 and I dont recall anyone complaining about solo/coop players lol @ dice
I'm honestly not even surprised coop players got *. Fun isn't a thing anymore. When they noticed everyone hopped off portal after the nerf to go have fun in coop they wanted people to fill AoW multiplayer lobbies on their empty * maps.

This is a thing that I've always seen people say to argue against bots, that it draws players away from the multiplayer - I don't know anybody that plays against bots that that holds true for.
I for sure, and the handful of people I know who prefer bots, will play against bots when we want to. If there are no bots, we don't play online - we don't play the game *at all* - we go to another game that we'd prefer to play, so to that end, either we're not playing MP because we're playing bots, or we're not playing MP because we're not playing the game.
To be honest, being a bit cynical, my suspicion is that they didn't care about farming before because there were so many weapons and service stars were visible to other players, going all the way up to effectively 10000 kills (with most assists not counting).
In this game, there are a lot fewer weapons, and Tier 1 is at only 1200 kills so they're locking it down to stop people from reaching Tier 1 so fast on everything - but that would appear to be a progression design failure, as they should have easily anticipated this.
They should still allow progression in the main game of Conquest and Breakthrough. Just lockdown portal is all. If anything lower the xp on the solo difficulty.
@dirty0814Yeah, If this change is intentional, I think they should at least allow progression on bots of intermediate difficulty or higher, not just lock it out for all of Solo/Coop...
The thing is to, all these challenges require a lot of kills, so playing on bots only AOW isn't going to give you that much of an advantage lol. Heck, some of the normal online lobbies people are getting into, are all just bots, no players XD
It really isn't that hard to fix...
It’s about the xp farming. people
are literally farming bots with no weapons in maps they create to get max levels. This is literally something that should be fixed as it ruins the game as far as keeping people playing because once unlocked in a day or two they’ll play a week or two and then stop playing so the game would
die a horrible death.
