Do we really need all 9 bots????

Post by aradorasxeon »

Do we really need all 9 bots???? I mean sometimes when admins aren't online they just make the game impossible to play, let us see korri, jumping throught mines jumping into mines, jumping front of you when you have the crystal and have no time to avoid bots... Hoth same as above, oh and just to be mentioned today a bot jumped exactly in front of the other teams' demo so he bloew himself up and i could go on easily with codes... in next round someone rage quited and that really fucked up the game because there was 3 vs 1 and i culdn't change team because of bots...

btw: i couldn't yews my admin to kick bot off because password changed again

Yeah, the bots are really annoying. Especially when you uvs_kickbots and they "rejoin" preventing other dudes from joining the game until you re-kick them again.

In jk2 on the UJ server we used to have one bot but it was always stuck, protected, WAY up in the sky where you could never reach it. (unless an admin forced into the game to fuck around with.)

Perhaps we could do something like that with just one bot? ie: Maybe we could keep www.jkasiege.com but forceteam it to spectate permanently?

I've done that, but you have to forceteam each bot individually (correct me if I'm wrong).

One bot and one dude can start a game.

We've been over this before, but it's never been changed...I let Guard handle things like this.

IMO make the bots go spectator.

uvs_kickbots is troublesome because it can prevent real people from joining the game after you yews it.


It's not like bots will draw a crowd now that the master server list is finally down.

i reckon the server shouldn't count bots as real people, like it always says 4v5 in the menu but then people cant join because its actually like 5v3.
ive always hated this problem. once upon a time when i didnt have admin, i got 5v1 because the server was so stupid and decided that i was on a team with 4 bots vs a team with one bot
