I know that many has asked about Bots in Halo 2 multiplayer and i know that there were no answer ("yes" or "no"). I'm only writin this topic to be informed if any of ya has heard or read new about Bots.

I think Bots would be cool coz i have xbox without Live acces and only 2 controllers. Multiplayer would be greater for Halo-gamers like me if bots were included.

Whats your meaning abot bots in Halo 2?

It is currently unknown. Bungie is keeping it to themselves. However, if you read the weekly update from the 16th, it gives some hints that they might be included. Don't expect any news on bots. Whether they are in the game or not will most likely remain hidden until it comes out.

it's not hard, theres only like 3 people here, all the normal people are sick of
1. The iluvbees stuff, it wouldnt be so bad if it was all in one thread, but some people are convinced theyre exempt from the rules and decide to post thier own new threads
and
2.All the newb questions mixed in with the iluvbees stuff, like TELL ME EVERYTHING ABOUT EVERY GUN and WHATS THIS GUN (when it's obviously an smg
but anyway back to the bots..
Bots would not only enhance the multiplay offline, but on live also and it wouldnt dent play either like say if you limit the number of bots to 16 it would be 1 to every xbox and so it wouldnt change that much. The problem would be with the scoring system on them, obviously a bot wouldnt be as challenging as a real person and unless bungie comes out with the ultimate new AI, they would never change weapons and wouldnt be able to react to new situations and as such would be as easy as a hunter to take down, and you couldnt really give a point for them, but ont he toher hand you couldnt have no credit for killing them so it would have to be pretty complicated.

I really hope there are bots. Even though CTF bot AI is terrible, they could be just available for a good ol' fragfest.

"Help Help I'm being repressed! Come and see the Violence inherent in the system!"
"Bloody peasant!"
"Oh did you see that? you saw him repress me?"

The Counter Strike Bot system is very good and life like. The proiblem with CTF is they don't no how to work as a team, they all go for the flag or all defend. You should have cover, attack, distract, vehicle take out, defend, counter snipe. Combine this with a Primary, Secondary and Tertairy objectives you could order bots to do stuff with proper objectives.
