I’m using Portal for BF6.
I select Conquest and enable Fill with Bots.
I start the server alone, but it waits for players instead of filling with bots.
I want to test alone.
How can I run Conquest with bots even if I’m the only player online?
I've got a feeling they're trying to prevent people from XP farming using bots, even though that's not what you're looking to do, you're being caught in the crossfire. Seen quite a few reports of similar happening to other players.
When i first made Portal servers I found this happening to me. Turns out you need to up human player per team count to Max 32, then the round will start with just you in it and fill with bots. Just remember to use a password to prevent players joining. Hopefully this is the fix you are seeking.
I dont know why this is needed, could be a bug but this is what worked for me.
I've it already. Conquest , 32 players per team and AI Backfill. But it doesnt start if i'm alone
On the teams setting I have -
Bot Spawn Type - Backfill
Faction - Map Default
Human Player per team - 32 (this was the one causing me issues until i put it on 32)
the next 3 are greyed out for me(bot count, gen max game size & number of teams (2))
then its just soldier options. Other than that im not sure, was only the human player per team that was causing an issue for me. I had a look through the portal maker and i cant see anything else that would affect it.
Why wont it work with 1 human on 1 team? They need to allow that. If I create a conquest with 32 humans per team with bot backfill, I can’t start a server cause there isn’t any “global game quota exceeded”
I did find that there are already lots of bots servers created out there, if you look through the server browser and search for “bots” or “bot”
This is a strange one, as I have come across community servers that have a maximum of 16 - 20 players with only a couple of humans actually in them, and they are still loading and playing fine. I tried to create one like this, as I saw a video saying it was easier to host a game without getting the quota error if you had fewer players in the setup, but it got stuck with loading the backfill bots and said it needed 24 players to start (even though the player count was less than 24 in the settings)
Unable to Host - maximum global server quota exceeded. Trying to join another session: 3 times the same error, then it just stops trying to join, or even searching for another server - i get a green square spinning and nothings working. Have to restart the game to make another 3 tries to get on a portal server - what a great experience!
This bots fill problem is active in my region since start of the release.. when the game came out I played a few games that count my fingers on portal verifiëd servers and testing every day with no luck. Sad enough not playing a lot anymore because the issue. Thanks EA/DICE for not offering the product as intented yet
