you're going to send them this post??? Is it a little late to have bungie working on bots now? As much as I want them I think the only way to make bots work if they already don't have them is to push back the release date. And I know you poeple don't want that. So yes, I want bots include but this poll isn't going to change there mind bud. Mabye they could send bots to us on download contect. But we need xbox live to do that right. So they give everyone the 2 mounth free trial card and over the internet bungie post online to wate till, lets say FEB. 1st 2005 to us the xbox live 2 mounth free card and to go to downloadable contect to get bots. So it could work right???

Why do people not want bots? What about the people who don't currently have live? Yeah you can just play with your friends but I don't have any...hahahah; and even if I did I hate splitscreen. I will be getting Xbox live, maybe even by the time it comes out, but still, I may want to just mess around with mulitplayer without pissing people off, and it is good practice as well.

EDIT: I assume they have already made bots by now anyway, hopefully.

i dont think they will include bots, mainly because they want people to subscribe to xbl

If u like split screen and no xbl subscripton that is u but I like the concept of Ai to fill in the blank spots on the servers,u join one bot die so u can play then when u die and leave the game bot comes back,sounds very solid to me.

the servers are never full. You find individual hosts, not official servers.

Na, bots will suck, unless they are as intelligent as humans, then it will be a little fight. Bot are always too easy on any game i have ever played, the only thing that makes them harder is more life or perfect aiming... but that sucks.

Even though I have XBL I still want bots with a fixed skill level for practice and for 16 player offline games without using LAN.

Why would they release bots in an Xbox Live download? Most Xbox Live users will never use them. And offline players will not be able to use them either.

You can just join one of the many hundreds of servers that are not full.

Bots are too easy. Its not the same as playing against real people. Also if you had bots on your team, who do you think is going to end up with the most deaths? How are you going to organize an attack or defense with bots? Oh thats right you wont be able to.

Even though I do have Xbox Live, I think that there should be bots in Halo 2 just so we can use them for practice and those without Xbox Live can use them for large games.
