you need bots in halo 2 because you can learn the different multiplayer maps well. plus if people dont have xbox live it can get a bit boring just killing the same bots in the same exact spawn point. its not a challenge...at all.

Even IF Bungie didn't have to write new AI code (which is probably a big "if" since Bungie would possibly have to write new AI for Spartan bots and probably have to write some new code for groups of purely Elites operating together rather than in a varied group of Covenant), bots WOULD change the whole dynamic of Halo just like Ckrpoint1 and BlackWLF point out. Simply put, Halo multiplayer wasn't designed for bots, just the enjoyment of player-to-player interaction. Since Halo 2 is an IMPROVEMENT of the best parts of Halo along with some awesome additions that build on the type of gameplay established by Halo, the addition of bots would turn Halo 2 multiplayer into something completely divergent from the gameplay we've all gotten addicted to. No doubt about it, I'm completely happy Bungie has already decided not to include bots in the multiplayer even though it kinda makes any argument I might make here kind of pointless. Oh well, it's fun anyway.
Right on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

when ya look at bot games like james bond, red faction 2 (not 1, 1 rules) and unreal championships, they arnt exactly 10 out of 10. so bots would ruin the multiplayer experience (unless you turned them off). They would be pointless, but a little cool i gotta admit. plus theyd have 2 stall the release again.

Lol how many times have we herad that? IF you heard the interveiw wich ive posted 2 other times he said that bots wernt going to happen, I WANT bots just like everyone else but im not going to wait until im an old man... Most of the ppl here dont know the firt thing about AI codes. And bots in FPS dont work good anyway like jamesbond inb game the AI was great but on multiplayer it was horrible... Pete parson said their wasnt going to be any anyway so think about all the athor happy things halo 2 has to come... XBL drool...

Actually Johny Joe, I thought the bots on Red Faction wernt to bad. Plus when I beat the game it gave me something to do. Bots in Halo 2 I think is a realy good thing to keep in mind for the bungie employees. My friend Cant get XBL even if he wanted to or had the money because his parents for some reason wont let him. The point is he is getting H 2 and wont even be able to use it to its full XBL extent. This "Bots" idea would realy make alot of the Halo fans who cant have or get XBL the chance to still have fun kicking some arse even if it is A.I. So you guys out there who oppose the idea, although I understand your point as well I think the bot argument Fairs better in this case then your none bot argument. Think about it bungie and non bot people, Think of the poor people who live in the middle of no where and have no friends to play H 2 with them. Spartan21502 out...

The people who do not want bots in Halo 2, there is called a no bot feature u know, just becuz thier there u dont mean have to use them, but for those who wish for bots, more then half the ppl who have played the game i bet want them. So if u dont want bots dont use them no harm done

of course bots need to be in multiplayer and with how many people voted yes as compared to no how can they refuse such an enjoyment that would be brought to this game if they did it. i mean just read all the posts in favor of yes and you'll get the fact that all of us are feeling the same thing and have the same thoughts and those of us who posted no have no real arguement besides "well the first game didnt have it and no one complained" well as someone already stated were complaining now and the games replay value will instantly rocket through the roof! bots ARE NEEDED in this game
