Hey, any one, has there been a final decision about adding bots into Halo 2 multiplayer?

I'm pretty sure that is one of the many things that bungie has said 'no comment' to.
From the Bungie FAQ: Q

Will there be multiplayer bots?

A

We have not made a final decision regarding bots yet. The team has heard the cries of fans and we're exploring ways to make multiplayer games more enjoyable for gamers with only 2 controllers and no Live access.

Ya, they've been saying that for a long time... however I don't think they would let us linger in suspence just to let us down. Now if they sai "We haven't made a final decision" then i would cross my fingers but wouldn't be surprised if they weren't there.

Slices into tiny pieces, sets individual pieces on fire, then ingests them, excretes them, and flushes them into the ocean. Then nukes the ocean*

I'm 99% sure there will be no bots, bungie correspondants have sad that with all the other work there just isn't enough time to do that, and how bots can't duplicate human play ment for multiplayer. They also talked about the AI scripting and how it would have to be different for multiplayer. So probabley not, unless you want to wait another 7 months. not me.

If you had bots on xbox live, you could have a game type "Bots vs. Human" with 16 real people verses 16 bots. That would be an insane CTF game. Both teams could be a mix of both spartans and elites. or Spartans vs. Elites.
