The Colonel 100 as a rare super-bot?

We know that bots are in the game and that they have (or will have in Portal) different "difficulty" levels.  As such, I feel it only natural and necessary that we have "The Colonel 100" in the game as a super-bot.  My thoughts would be to make him a rare spawn (1/5000 chance? not sure how rare to make him...) that could move around freely and would be the most "realistic" AI bot in terms of difficulty.  His only job would be to prioritize and destroy all the Nancies in the game...

I think he should be a loner, teamless killing machine bot, so either side could take him down (or try to...).  Perhaps he drops a special weapon in the match, or perhaps a permanent melee weapon, or a dogtag?  Regardless, it would be cool to see him in-game... or terrifying maybe.



DICE... please.

    @FringerunnerYES. Something along these lines is exactly what I was thinking.

    I like that it requires having watched the series in order to understand why that is a "special" way to kill him. No spoilers, no hints, just have to have that knowledge and try it out on him... great idea.

    @ElliotLH  I like that angle as well... man, that would be tough to figure out.  Although, some of these Easter Egg hunters we have... who knows?

    I find the whole idea totally stupid.

    One thing is bots/AI to fill out the server, but "specialists" - "special bots"  ... the whole idea makes it look more like a gimmick than a good fps.

    Only classes ingame should be the ones players can select being the "normal" classes we had in previous BF's - the AI's should be the same with same choice of gear.

    @0ld_yell0w Another target!

    You clearly did not read through the entire thread, but thank you for your input.
  • @0ld_yell0w This whole silly discussion is about a cartoon character in Battlefield Friends. You can find the series on Youtube. In fact, if you read the previous posts, you can find a link to a hilarious video.

    @0ld_yell0w ,

    I think that the Colonel can be implemented without being a game breaker for other players that are not so much buying into the BF history and the classic Battle Field Friends characters/storylines.  (yes, it also takes some self irony and humor)

    Much like we had the Megalodon on Paracel Storm.  Hundred of thousands of players have been on that map without ever seeing it once.  Still goto a BF4 Paracel Storm server just for that Megalodon Easter Egg and you will see friends and foes alike cramming together on top of the windmill to get zapped by the lightning.  And right after again, all boating/parachuting into the island where the Megalodon would arrive shortly after...

    You also had BFF Neebs joining the fun when we solved the LA Camo Easter Egg.  "Promoted!"  🙂

    Again, just a subset of all players doing it...  

    So why not allow the developers and other gamers to have that extra fun and make the game diverse and inspiring in all the ways it can be, as it can easily be done without negatively impacting other players not much buying into Easter Eggs/BFF!
