Hi all,

 

This video is exactly why I believe MoonGamers should remove bots. I hardly ever see the server with low population during daytime hours in North America, so I don't think the bots fill the void of real human players very often. In this instance, a bot headshotted me and Shredder and ruined our sneak to the back base on Omaha, which would've significantly changed the round. This is just one example; bots have ruined strategic plays & intense moments many, many times for me over the years. They also get into ships/defguns/other vehicles and don't allow human players to use them more effectively than they do (a lot of the time, the bots just stay still and don't shoot).

Please consider removing bots from MoonGamers & clam down!

While removing bots completely isn't possible due to our late night / overnight population, we could look into lowering the population thresholds at which they are turned off by Moonbot. Currently they are set to turn off between 24-30 players depending on map.

Clam, I don't understand why you're upset with the bot for headshotting you and Shredder, sounds like it was doing its job

 

Now I fully understand your frustration with bots taking control of vehicles or doing nothing (my favorite is when they endlessly run against a wall like a cartoon character), but let's not "punish" them for being useful to the team that they are on. They should be more like the bot that shot you (and I've been shot by many). Evolution in programming them should be the goal.

Good day!

While in some instances, I can totally agree with you Mr Clam...they are amazingly accurate in shooting and have often created much anguish in killing me. Yes indeed, in fact, ruining my strategies in play...occupying the only jeep available is the worst!...but I love the bots! I wish we could contribute to naming them...I'd suggest a "Xena Princess"! 

 

On a more serious note, I would suggest the following in regards to bots...

1) Make them more human by reducing their "Bionic Super Hero" accuracy. I've been killed literally from one side of the field to another in amazing accuracy! They should not be better than humans.

2) Definitely keep the bots as they are needed for some of us coming on in a late night adventure where few humans are available. This ensures some kind of play.

3) Allow for them to be as "killable" as any human. If I run them over with my jeep...they should die.

4) As you stated Col., bots should not be endlessly running into the wall. This renders them useless. There should be a reset for this as it unbalances the teams. If one team has 10 bots fighting and contributing...it is unfair the other team has only 3 active bots contributing as 7 are running into the wall doing absolutely nothing!

5) Also, if the bots can do it...so should we be allowed to do it. If bots can run close to main and kill, so should I be allowed (I don't as I know I can be kicked). Same rules for bots and humans.

6) Did I say I love the bots? I really do...nothing is more satisfying than tossing a grenade into a den of bots "hanging out." :-)

That's super frustrating. All that way and then the super power bot kill. I hate getting killed by an impossible sniper bot. Happens all the time
