Subject: Halo AI bots for quitters

I dont like the idea of AI bots as a substitute.

I think a more fair approach would be stats should not be recorded after a substantial player drop (Cr still given). This way you wont be punished for staying in the game despite being out gunned.

This maybe a harsh step for the basic competitive list but it would fit nicely in Arena.

I think thats a great idea!


It would break the game even worse. For then people would farm the easy AI bots for easy kills and credits. Because if Bungie made the bots too hard, people would whine about that as well, so the bots would only be able to be of average levels which would be easily killed by most players.

Plus the bots would be overly predictable on their movements most of the times and someone could just camp where a bot would come over and over and over again.

Or a better solution to open the games and not make them closed matches. Where if someone quits another can join in to take that place.

But most players hate to join in a loosing game and thus have their so precious w/l record damaged by it.

Lol.
one of the funniest things i have seen all day.

And i don't think that halo needs bots, I have never had a huge problem with quitters.

Welcome to the internet. Joy dies here.

they could just throw in an option to end the game by vote when your team quits, everybody gets their credits and kills, and back to lobby to look for a full game. I'd vote to quit when the entire enemy team quits except one guy. And the last guy on a team doesn't deserve to be punished for quitting when he's 1 on 4.

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

I would say give the people who stick around when their teammates quit a cR increase.Might be a way to boost that but it would be more fair then what it is now.

Or maybe they don't want to join a game when the other team has an insurmountable lead,full map control, and all the the power weapons and or your teams vehicles.

One of my problems with open games is that you always seem to get stuck on the team that is getting it's ass kicked.

Except if Bungie made the AI's they just drive off cliffs, strafe like a crazy person without actually moving forwards, and have 100% accuracy with wraiths.

Follow me on Twitter: @oboewan

Either (a) the AI sucks, or (b) the AI is too good. Either way people would be whining.

And I believe Bungie already stated that the reason they don't have bots is that Halo's AI engines are designed around "throw as many Elites at this guy as possible". As evidenced by the idiot friendly AI.
