I'm not at all optimistic that they'll return. I can't help but feel like I've been scammed. I just want to chill and play BOTS in a verified mode. I aren't interested in the farming nonsense. I just have fun playing alone in a game against BOTS.
There's a ton of reasons why I prefer playing BOTS, firstly because that's why I bought the game as that was promised in the marketing but from a more personal perspective, I felt the games were more competitive because BOTS actually played the objective of the mode. I'm also one of those that care about the aesthetics of a game and BOTS don't slide and bunny hop around the map every second and switch weapons like they've got a terrible uncontrollable twitch. Playing online and seeing others play like that takes away that military shooter feel for me, granted I'm aware Battlefield isn't exactly a military simulation but still, it felt more realistic and I care about that. I'm so disappointed that I fell for the lies of 'play Battlefield your way' rubbish.
I can't see myself playing the game again unless they bring them back with weapon and career XP, even if they halved it, I'd take it because like I said, the farming nonsense doesn't interest me. I just want to chill and play Conquest with BOTS, all verified by Dice. Is that so much to ask.
Little whinge over.
