like the ones in gears of war 2 and the original perfect dark game. I think it would be awsome to have a forge option in which you can place playable elites or spartons or just plain enemies any where in a multiplayer map. and in which you can select a difficulty for them and maybe even a trait like defense or attack. WHAT DO YOU THINK???

Bad idea think about. Let's say you are on guardian at snipe 2 and the bot is a top mid. Which way do you think the bots going to go, walk into snipe 2 or jump up to snipe 3 and walk down. Most likely the bot won't be smart enough to go up snipe 3 to flank. It will most likely just walk into snipe 2 and get grenaded. The bots won't have the vertical aspect of Halo covered properly.

The character movement in Halo different from Gears of War 2 (you can jump in Halo making it impossible for "bots"). GOW2 can have bots because player movement is relative to the AI movement in campaign plus they have a cover system. Its kinda hard to explain but "bots" in Halo are not impossible but is extremely hard. Your explanation is a perfect example why.

it is why they never made them in MM, to much work for somthing not very many people would use. honestly i would like to see it made, but i really think it will never happen. That is all.

Well, Halo is entirely different from Gears of War. Enemies in campaign are very easy, And what if they were in Multiplayer, just as Spartans or Elites? I would think still easy. I don't think Bungie would try to make Bots that would be of any use in Multiplayer.

I agree. Just disregard the reasons as to why it's a bad idea because it wouldn't work well.
