Bots (AI) are the worst thing they ever added to online PvP.

This is a joke, this takes me back to spoting icons once again, sneaky gameplay and escape abilities don't work against them, small characters like Imp or Night Cap get destroyed by them. And they in...

I applaud the devs for adding AI to team vanquish and mixed mode. The AI do have very good aim and will hunt you down when you are injured, but other than that they do really dumb stuff like give away positions and rez poorly or not at all.

If it weren't for the AI, there would be no games to join sometimes, which is a travesty without custom games or a proper LFG lobby, but at least games can be running for others to join. 

I hate to say it, but soon they may have to lower the minimum players from 4 to 1 just to get a game started. Several times throughout the week I’ve sat in a Team Vanquish game by myself, unable to start until 3 more players join. That could take hours.

    @Motherball Yeah that's sad, I see the problem only worsening over time, less players = more AI = more negative feedback. I want to see at least console crossplay to save the game.
    I play mosty arena lately and the bots are annoying being aimboty, wallhacky, shootin-thru-the-walls, but there are many quitters and it's better that it gets filled with AI instead of playing 4v1 arena. Maybe if they REWORK the AI how it plays and behaves, it may help.
    But still the biggest issue here is the playerbase, that's why the AI have been added in the first place.

      @malfinman Crossplay wasn't announced for BFN at EA Play, even though it was for Apex which is unusual

        @Shadowphinx101 Yeah so I've heard, big let down. I guess if they planned crossplay for BFN behind the scenes they wouldn't add the AI in the first place.
