You are missing my point and viewing this based on your gameplay, i absolutely don't say playing against bots is bad, i enjoy it to. There is a huge difference between playing against bots and bot farming as i mentioned, keep in mind, all weapon, attachements, challenges where available until today for all progression in bot lobbies, EA removed it because bot farms were exploiting it, here is how it affects, you, me and everyone because they just stood there in a bot farm at spawn point shooting bots to unlock everything.
- They now took away all progression from everyone who loved playing bots. Many people only want to play bots, many people only can play bots, so the result of these exploiters is that they all have a useless game and will never get any attachements unlocks and can't do the challenges to unlock the perks. - They have an unfair advantage running with fully equipped top tier weapons that normally and will take us months to unlock. - They unlocked all gadgets. Again unfair advantage being able to use all the stuff no one has yet.
Do you understand the huge impact this has on everyone who actually play the game? Bot farms are there only to exploit and the ones farming only care to get stronger weapons, the top tier attachements, less recoil because no one has it and that's the only way these losers can get a kill on the multiplayer map.
What they did is also made the class tiers completely irrelevant, in the past people looked up to top tier gamers, people grinded their butts of to become Elite, You did it all, you are a veteran, you are a true gamers..Now, it means absolutely nothing no more.
I don't blame the people who do it, they're probably kids and the ones older than 14 have a brain the size of a fruit fly. I blame EA for allowing this to happen, they have literally managed to ruin their own game in less than two weeks.
"I think that's why so many people are upset they can't legitimately play against bots and not progress like everyone else playing the game."
So understand that no one is upset with people playing against bots, nor progressing against bots. And they definitely need to bring back progression in bot games and deal with this bot farming issue in a propper way.
There seems to be a lot of people upset about people playing vs bots. They seem to only want people to earn unlocks the way they do, and don't want them to have better stats on their profile. I've never cared to look at anyones profile, even mine, but they seem to really care from all the threads I've been reading on this topic.
I don't think bot farming itself was their issue, only that 1 vs bot servers were clogging up their limited quota.
People are not upset about playing against bots, people are upset about bot farming, that is a complete different issue, bot farming isn't playing the game. Many also unlocked all later weapons and with the lower gun fully equipped you wouldn't stand a chance against an average skilled player, luckily most that exploit as always and same with those who cheat are mostly extremely bad at the game, otherwise they wouldn't really care and play the game like it is supposed to be played. Today i even saw a profile with every single weapon and class on Elite class..This only shows me what insecure noobs they are. They should find another hobby cause gamers they are not.
