CQC CQC: How would you feel about bots?

[SushiCW]

It would also be self-limiting ... you could only farm bots for rank if there weren't any actual players about, but if "everyone" tried that there'd be actual players about.

This is to an extent an argument against putting too much work into the bot quality - if they're actually successful at getting players to the game, they won't see much action themselves. Ones which bounce off the scenery, ignore the powerups, and otherwise do a good impression of a beginner ... are probably sufficient.

Yep. At this point even dropping the regular NPC AI into CQC is much much better than nothing.

To be honest I'd even accept them making DM playable with 2 people if bots really required too much work. TDM perhaps with 4.

It wouldn't make for the most exciting match but sure beats the lobby.

i tried to get a game last night... it was a long time since I last tried and nothings changed.. no one was there!

I'm heading in there now... I'll just leave it connected waiting till I fall asleep

so a bot to play with would be nice

A few months ago I was a noob that everyone was killing just like you... there are people who have been playing CQC for 2 years now.. so when I started playing it a few months ago it was really tough.

Yes i wished I had not chosen my game name as N00B as I'm an obvious target !

It's been a while since I played.. I'm an ol Alpha backer just trying to get back into the game
I wonder if there's a way to change my in game name?

but it's still fun...when you log on and there's someone there to wrangle with...... but most of the time there's no-one (-:

You get 50 points for finishing a match, and 10 points consolation bonus if you didn't get any points otherwise. You also get 50 points for each assist, which can add up quite fast.

It's a very slow way to reach rank 5, but it works eventually.

Ask Support if you want to do it without resetting your account.

That's my strategy for eventually reaching rank 50 ;-) That and bouncing off the scenery, ignoring the powerups, and otherwise doing a good impression of a beginner.
