Seconded. i recently played again with default bots and it doesn't matter what career you give them they are just increadibly useless.

Trying to tank a boss monster when the entire party is down? check. using skills at bad times or when it places them too far to be useful? check. can't fight a single elite without wandering through a horde and losing 90% of their health? Check and double check.

Someone getting grabbed by a special? nah that 3 enemies is definately too dangerous to leave alone. they won't hit specials that even a nearsighted person could clearly see and tagging doesn't make it their focus well enough. (and of course they won't bother if there's anything near them to begin with. they won't even save THEMSELVES.)

I never actually realized how stupid the default BOTS are !
At times they will literally stand there and do nothing. One time up against a WarpFire Rat, the BOT just went straight head on and tank the thing trying to overpower it.
Then there are times the BOT will just wander off on it's on chasing an enemy...

Yea...the game is almost unplayable when you don't get any actual people on your team on higher difficulties. I caught two bots standing next to a downed team member last night that I couldn't make it to in a timely manner, and they just stood there looking over our downed team mate! Yes there were mobs around but they weren't completely swamped and had more than ample opportunity to pick up our team mate. Needless to say, I had barely made it over to pick them up before bleeding out. It also makes using the Twitch stream option a real pain on anything above veteran when you have to resort to bots for whatever reason it may be.

I'm not holding my breath on this getting updated or re-sanctioned though, seeing as how Fatshark isn't approving any more mods for official realm. It was fun while it lasted, now we just have to hope to match with actual people instead of just enjoying the game with semi-decent support.

Also adding my voice to this. I'd love to have my good bots back. I play exclusively with my gf and two bots. But even if it doesn't get updated, thanks Grim for all the good times using it!

typically we've had runs with a bot in it fail because the bot will wander off out of position for no reason even with an active fight going.

all the people saying bots are fine and then outline how to play with bots don't realize that if they were correctly made you wouldn't need to play AROUND THEM only with them. you wouldn't need to teach someone how to play with a bot, and you shouldn't have to. I get fairly tired of watching the bot die to things they should handle by just swinging in its general direction...not even a strat, just swing at it.

This was awesome mod, hope it will be updated

It's hard for me to get 1 friend to join me on this game, let alone 3. I almost always have at least 1 bot present and they are positively dead weight on anything above Champion and it's basically pointless for me to play anything under Legend. I really hope the author will update this, it's about the only thing that may keep me playing at this point because it's clearly beyond Fatshark to actually fix their own bot AI.

Yes. I would sign a sanction petition, if there was one.

Vanilla bots are 2 times weaker and 10 times more stupid. I didn't realize how bad they actually are thanks to this mod.

sending hope

wish came true

It's still saying this mod is unsanctioned for me. I unsubscribed and resubscribed to it, but whenever I attempt to activate it, I cannot play the "Official" Realm. What am I doing wrong?
