Do you think A.I. would be cool for a gametype like Zombies or Defend?? Leave a post.

Do you mean having bots for multiplayer? I don't know how A.I. would be incorporated any other way, unless you had a couple grunts running around the level.

I suppose, but not in ranked games; unless, the game type would be something like "survival" where you fight off hordes of flood and covenant with your buddies. That could be ranked.

Halo's a hell of a drug.

Definitely put some AI in there. Like animals and stuff that are in the environment. I'd like to see some dinosaurs.

Yeah, I always remember how much fun it was on Starcraft to play the Starship Troopers-themed user-created maps (essentially the same as Defense gametypes, where a few people fight off never-ending hordes of baddies). Bots would be badass, especially if there was the ability to use them in clever ways.

bots would be interesting.
they should have the ability to be smart
enough to adapt and
learn from their mistakes.

I have always liked bots. I know Bungie can pull it off with the power of 360. Jedi Knight on Gamecube had Bots for gosh sakes.

I think bots would be nice. That way if you got some free time and all your friends are on vacation or something you could use them for target practice ; )

growing up i played primarily FPS's that reveled in bot competition. but alas, i believe the age of the bot is over.

the problem is you cant teach an old bot new tricks. sure set the difficulty up to legend, and you'll get a sniper who's programmed to get headshot. however, i dont think this is bungies style.

when you grab the flag, you cant tell a bot to stay right behind you as a human shield. sure a bot can get killtaculars, but they arent gonna teabag the bodies. you wont hear smack talk about your mom from a bot.

i guess for those who dont have live, H2 would be a drag. i agree with that wholeheartedly. and its not like i think bots would suck. but their preprogrammed movements and algorithms about what to do when the opponent has rockets arent..........haloish, ya know?

halo is about running away sometimes and sticking yourself so you at least take down that guy who assassinates you. halo is telling your teammate "no, dont stand there.........move about 5 feet to the right....." halo is knowing you have someone on the back of your wraith on waterworks, and rather than turn it over to them, you thrust it off the level and into the depths. these are actions based on random, unknown thought- like an impulse. A.I. doesnt really have this.........

but it still sux for those who arent on da net. so yeah, i guess sure, put bots in but keep them FAR away from xbox live.

there should be an option to turn on or off bots for people like myself who do not have xbox live and probably wont until im 18 and can pay with my own credit card. Then it would probably be a bit more fun for those without live

  • 06.23.2006 11:54 AM PDT

Enemy of my enemy's enemy is still me enemy. Get it?

There should be some ranked matches where bots are on and off. My idea is that when a player quits, he is replaced with a bot.

That sounds good, but you going to need a kick ass bot.

OK, yes, it is very true that I'm a dumb ass. I'm not denying that. However, isn't the whole point of a beta to increase the amount of users until you get someone dumb enough to try something you haven't anticipated.

If a game like PDZ can handle bots, Halo 3 can handle bots. It's just a question of whether or not Bungie would put them in the game. The AI is already there for campaign, and if there was no AI for campaign, you would just run around and kill brain dead enemies who just stood in the same spot for the entire level. Seeing as the previous two Halos have not had bots, I would not expect them, but I would welcome them if Bungie decides to add them.

Dinosaurs? This ain't Turok! Bots would be fun offline and if you've play campaign you would know that the A.I. does infact trash talk, crouch over your body, and even unload their ammo into your corpse. It would be very entertaining.

bots would be cool, and u could like press buttons on the d-pad for different commands like dont suck, teabag him, etc... and u could have the option to play bots on or bots off. that would be cool if in headlong you like aimed somewhere and told ur bot to go there then give u covering fire as u and ur friends raided the other team...another idea is he could help you like r2d2 helps in star wars like open locked doors or scout for u or whatever then if he dies u gotta open the doors manually or find a different way in


thanks
