Quick match is all bots?

[GSPOTxJESUS]

The names are a dead giveaway this game is all filled with bots and the fact that they don't attack me as much but just run around. I wanted to play with people but might return, I didn't know it's a single player game.

If it's all bots then I'm much worse than I initially thought lol.

It's not a singleplayer game, it's an online game. And no, in quick match everybody are real players, that way you could be bot too, but you are not. So real players play with it. Not every players behave same, so of course you can find running players too. But rarely, when 1-2 players leave the quick match, the game replace them with hidden AI player automatically. And in custom game in custom lobby you an create own AI players there, if you want. Of course you can play and meet there with real players too.

Depends heavily on your settings.

For example, when I was going for achievements I would turn crossplay off (xbox user) and select asia server (which is actually my region) and most games would be nothing but bots.

A few dead giveaways that your opponents are bots:
-quick match will search until about 2:55 then start the game (default time for real players to join, i suppose)
-all player names will have the same naming convention.
-they will NOT throw objects from sidelines when they are knocked out.

For the most part, AI opponents are much easier. This made getting a lot of the achievements much more manageable.

If you looking to avoid bots, make sure crossplay is on, and use a server that you imagine is popular.

It's far from all bots in my experience, but they are indeed a big problem. I usually play very late in NA and there's 1-3 bots in every match.

I don't understand how you can be so confident about info that's incorrect. Quick match commonly has bots in the game before it even begins. A lot of them have fake profiles to appear as players, but they are VERY obviously bots.

no, it's both real and bot players. Laughable how you sound so confident when you clearly are so very wrong lol

Because bots/AIs only, if a player quit from the current quick match and then replaced with hidden AI. Not my imagination, i heard before it's true. Just beware, i can't trust in you then, maybe you are a bot/AI there too. If somebody suspect others, he/she can be bot/AI him/herself too. But this is just an example.

I can say you the same, like to TrueEvil, read it carefully.

It's definitely not all bots in my games. I've never seen this thing of multiple players with the same naming convention, but there are some players who could conceivably be bots. And then there are rounds where everybody suddenly seems to be especially switched on, and I think, what's going on in those other games?

I don't see why this is bad, though. If I play Casual in Rocket League, I'm going to see some bots in matches even though the pool of human players is definitely high enough to avoid that. However, some players quit out during matchmaking, or their internet fails. And that's in a game where 3v3 is the standard, whereas Party Animals is trying to provide a much bigger arena. Of course, the system can't always fill the slots with real people, and that's going to exacerbate the issue of pre-game quitters when that happens. But that's why Quick Match is Quick Match, and if you want to ensure that doesn't happen then you need to form a team of friends and play Custom, just like I'd need to play Ranked and/or assemble a team in Rocket League to avoid the problems of Casual modes.

Yes, i am experienced well in this too.

nothing but bots when you play late....

How are the names a dead giveaway? Whenever a bot replaces a player who left a match, the username is usually a average looking username.

If you are talking about the accounts with Player41855 or similar, then its likely just a new player who never made a vanity name, or someone who never bothered to.

Yes and true, some players don't give to themself own name, i don't understand why not, the Player name with random numbers is the standard name and we can change it.

It isn't a "player####' name, those are just players who haven't updated their names.

Bots will have the same naming convention. If I remember correctly, it is a noun followed by an adjective or vise versa. For example, FighterGold or StoneMighty. Stuff like that. Once you identify it, it is easy to tell. Also, if you check the profiles, you can tell it isnt a person.

sorry it was just probably me i just run around and let others fight and Ko other players until i'm the last of the two.

Recently BOT is so increasing. Their name is very similar syntax like 2 words joined, and look into his profile, "experience to next level" is often rounded to neat value like 10000. And tend to 4 or more bots joined together. They moves so boring. Are they official fake people?
