Yes, I say... and it will be so, for I have demanded it.

... I sure hope so. If you don't like them play on Live. Give us that can't more options.

I dont have Live smart one, I just think that Multi-Player should be Player to Player, hence the name

Ouch, I meant ME when I said "us". Also, it's not that easy to get friends over everyday for some people and bots would be nice every once in awhile. Plus, like I said you don't have to use them, why not have them? The positives outweigh the negatives.

I shall now change multiplayer into multi-competitors. Make it so.

Wow, take everything so literal do we? Somebody needs some apple juice and a nap. Why make a poll MR. Grumpy if you don't want peoples' opinions? I'll just say yes next time and leave it at that, sheesh.

Apple juice is pretty good, but nothing beats milk and cookies and a nice nap in the sun...

... but milk and cookies are for good halo fans like me. :P I'd want bots even if I did have Live. I too want to know why someone wouldn't want them. Make me change my mind, I dare ya.

I'll love the game either way.

Your on :) Bots just run around though, they dont sit and wait to spring a trap, they just run around and shoot at any target they can hit, I mean, A human wont run in circles, Another reson Bots cant be snipers, That is the very meaning of patience

Haha, I'm basically a bot. I have no patience... well a little, but I hardly use it. I run in figure eights though. *Gets sniped in head* Ouch. I still enjoy running around and just shooting bots once in awhile. If you make them very difficult it can be a fun survival game. It's rare that I'll get a chance to play with friends or family, so bots would add some more replayability with quick fights you can put together in a snap.

If you think bots are limited to those functions, then you must have experienced very poor bot programming. Take, for instance, Perfect Dark for the N64. No other game came close compared to the bots system they had in place. There was a system the bots used, yes, but it never got boring or dull. And as for sniping, the bots in Conker actually learned to find their own camping spots and would snipe you as well as any human player. So, I say 'yes' to bots because, knowing Bungie, they would do a great job at it. And if you don't want bots, them don't use 'em. But for the majority of players, they don't have Xbox Live, and how many times can you just ZAP your friends over at any time of the day to play CTF with? With bots you always have someone to play with.

True, if bungie made bots, they would be great, and so you know, I have conker :) Long Live The Teddez

Oooooooh, that was sneaky. Using a game he hasn't even played in his argument. Bungie-Bots = Excellent. They demand excellence from all aspects of the game, I assume they'd do the same with bots. If anybody can do it, the ninja turtles can... I mean Bungie can.

I know, that was a little risky, but I heard that comment from a trusted source and figured it was just as good. Plus, Fireteam can back me up here, since he has the game.

I would love for bots to be in the game. Sure i got friends and we have lan games. I also have Xbox live. but sometimes its more fun to just play with people you know. We always want to play capture the flag but with only four or six people it pretty much sux ass especially on bigger levels like blood gulch and sidewinder. Where as if we had bots it would be much more fun to play those larger maps.

That's exactly the whole point of bots. To make any game, no matter how many players are playing, more enjoyable.
