Some people enjoy playing against bots, and there's nothing wrong with that.
But I'm a competitive person who enjoys competing against human opponents. Defeating a bot in battle gives me zero satisfaction. Probably because I know there's not a living opponent on the other end who has thoughts and feelings. The whole bot experience just seems hollow and empty to me, due to my competitive personally.
I guess it would be similar to introducing robots into real world sports. Imagine if robots were introduced into FIFA. Robots that could run faster, jump higher, and kick the ball harder than any human. Would the human players on the field enjoy such competition, or would they find playing against fellow human opponents more fun?
I'd rather play against human opponents. It's more interesting to compete against opponents that look and think like you, not to mention have emotions. Otherwise that competitive feeling is lost, as is my desire to keep playing the game.
So hopefully BF2042 has options to satisfy both camps. I hope you enjoyed my psychology deep dive into the mind of a competitive online player, and why bots leave these players feeling bored and unmotivated.

I am now at the point where I don't care what everyone else thinks about this as long as the developers know that I love them bringing back the Bot Matches!
They can be played Solo and Coop. As long as this remains in future games as well. The way other people play won't effect me. Which is how it should be.
- 5 years ago@Jesse165 The crux of the issue is the one of choice. There should be a choice, simple as. If bots are as great as advertised then people wont mind playing against a few of them, but we should still get the choice.
- 5 years ago@OskooI_007 nice hyperbole. Do you work for the Murdoch press? Fear BOTs they will be better than you.
We are talking about BF not some twistsd fantasy. MP BOTs will not have a physics advantage over players, god I am more concerned that bots doing the same damage with BOTs from BFV even with specific weapons will still be a challenge. Not because they will be aim BOTs because even with 1% accuracy they are still going to be firing lots of bullets.- 3 years ago
The bots are more effective than most players. They give you ammo and medical when requested, they try to revive (to an extent), they use AT weapons, they defend and push objectives. I'd rather have a team of bots over most of the players who are completely oblivious and/or not interested in helping anyone but themselves.
- SpoolaZ5 years agoSeasoned AceHave you forgotten all the people in this game who are just robots with superpowers. Those with Superman's x ray vision and with bullets that find their targets themselves. They can also be bulletproof, run very fast and fly if they want to. So there are already players who are more robots than bots will ever be.
- KnightFury683 years agoSeasoned Veteran@OskooI_007 it concerns me that you get such a rush from killing other real humans in a game. Give you a real gun and you complain that the range shooting at paper targets doesn't give the same rush as shooting real bleeding crying humans. your sick.
