CQC Botmatches are needed

I think its safe to say that bot matches are needed in CQC.
I can no longer find any games of CQC.

Its something I like , but dont need.
However it would be a waste to throw it all away.

On top of that CQC can be a decent carrier option in elite.

As someone who is against removing options , as more options is never a bad thing... CQC needs bots.
Of course that could be a lot of work...

But adding bots would be the perfect send off to CQC , and might even bring players back.

Yes I would like there to be bots - for the times when you can't find a match. Swap in/out would be a nice feature. Potentially no more waiting in a lobby, or searching for a match. That would be nice - but it would certainly be a load of development effort though...

P.S. At the time of your post there was at least 1 CQC game playing (PC) - I was in one... ;).

To help find matches, I'd recommend joining the CQC discord channel: https://discord.me/elitedangerouscqc
 
+1 again! this has been suggested a lot of times... It could really help make a fluent game experience.

I know. I just felt that , given that FD said there is a low player count on CQC the more voices talk about bots the higher chances of it happening
 
Unforutnately FD it seems has moved on from cqc. They don't care about it anymore. Its dead to them, hence its dead to everyone.

This is a crying shame as the few games I did get to play were some of my best times in ED. I too wish they'd fix it but they won't, its a graveyard, a mark of shame, a reminder of what this game could have been if it'd been handled correctly.

maybe if you say Fdev three times in the forum they appear....

"FDev"
"FDev"
"FDev"

and lets hope this works...:D
 
they've pretty much naved meshed the CQC zones..... so why not just implement the nav meshes, fighter AI (or somthing similar) because the AI crew arnt that bad at flying ships
 
:eek: you didn't say that?! you could hurt their feeling more than them blindly crashing into asteroids....

as long as they don't have god-like accuracy with weapons I am not to fussed. :D
My issue is they have ; slow turning arks , they seem to miss on purpose , they dont use FA/OFF , they dont target subsystems
 
Bots will never happen. Wings, CQC, Multi-crew, the customers want NPCs but they are never in the development plan.
 
Touch it once, then move on.

CQC is more likely to be disabled than enhanced in any way.

so those of us who actually bought it better get a refund then... if I could wish it to be anything I would rather pay them more to get Bots than to see it be discarded. :)


I would LIVE for Bots in this case. many many many games long ago had bots in them ( James bond: Nightfire for original Xbox was actually the bomb for bots!! best fun I ever had In the game!!!) :D

if they never expand then CQC is doomed to rot... if they have one shot at making it right this is the answer.

Unfortunately, this part of the forum is hardly looked over or active at best...I believe that the current uselessness of CQC may be result of this. people are losing/lost intrest of it entirely due to emmencly long waiting times and low rewards.

I wouldn't mind seeing modules unlocked through CQC for main game too...like OC Pulse once you hit the rank of Amateur or something for a little extra incentive. :)

It was a bit busier before all the regular players moved to Discord for general chat and organising matches - which, for the "any games going on right now?" / "nice shooting" / "shall we go to TDM" sort of chat it's much better for than a web forum.

You get the permit on first prestige - a full outfitting station, with some discounts on certain bits of combat equipment which are better than that available at Shinrarta or LYR space. Definitely worth it.
