Toggle AI - Conquest

So, I don't know if this is possible but would be a nice admin feature to help fill up servers.  I have been running a Team Death Match Hardcore server with FULL XP / Ribbons / Unlocks for a few days.  Of course the only way to do this, is make sure AI is completely disabled.  In a 16v16 server it literally takes 5-10 minutes for the server to fill completely up, and it literally stays full until I leave (5-6 hours).... 

However, trying to get the same settings working in a 64 player conquest server seems to be an issue.  I get why in a 16v16 player match after it shows 4-5 people the server instantly fills up.  In a conquest map, NO ONE is going to join a conquest map that has 1 out of 64 players in it.

Why can we not use the admin menu to enable / disable AI for a short time, so a 1/64 player server shows as a 24/64 server, then at a certain level AI gets disabled and the server goes fully ranked?  This would increase players / server / and might take the bad taste out of some of those mouths that feel like they wasted money on this game. . . . because I was one of them.  My entire clan preordered the game, and by the time i upgarded me PC, NO ONE plays it anymore, and most are unwilling to give it a second try (due to the basic stuff like only 4 in a squad in a HUGE game with 64 players in a server (you have to admit, that makes NO sense in a game this big.... Hell in planetside 2 the VoIP system was setup perfect.  You had to unlock the ability to go from squad chat, to platoon chat, to outfit chat).

I am not bashing this game, as I personally am super happy with the direction it has taken since launch, but the super tiny things that can be changed that will increase player count literally ten-fold need to be discussed.

Please use this thread for constructive posts and criticism and keep the crap comments elswhere.

  • Totally agreed, replace the AI as players come in. This could also apply to when you're not playing in portal. There's no reason to delay a game from starting while waiting for players to join. Urgh!
