Poll: Which would you rather have?  [closed]
Halo 2 in August / NO bots:  30%
(10 Votes)
Halo 2 in November / with GOOD bots:  70%
(23 Votes)
Total Votes: 33

Before you commence to flames, let me state that I KNOW that Halo 2 WILL NOT release on August 24. Again, this is a "what if" kind of question. And the question is: If you had the power to release a FULL VERSION of Halo 2 on August 24th, would you?... But, if you waited till November 9th, it would have bots that function 90% human-like.

Man.. it's a good question, you should go away.

How about neither? I don't like bots one bit. They just don't go with Halo, and they get boring to play with once you can slaughter them every game without dying.

I'm pretty sure Halo 2 will rock with or without bots... this poll is to see how bad people really wants bots or just wants Halo 2 now.

WIth the type of maps that Halo has, bots are pointless, and are a waste.

Eventually you'll memorize the maps, and find tricks to kill enemies easier that are original, and not even Bungie could program AI to respond to. Like for example, sliding under the bars in Sidewinder.

You might fool the same human once or twice with a trick, but you'll beat an AI with the same trick every time.

I don't think bots are a good idea in mp. If you want to play with bots go to sp. Might be nice, but very tough to pull off specific tatics with. On slayer might be kind of nice, but that is about it.

Halo 2 is NOT going to be released on Aug. 24 under any circumstances. Frankie spelled this out as clearly as possible. What is coming out then is a new OXM special.
