Terrible game don't play, full of bots.

how to know a bot is in your game. click profile, they are bronze V however it says their highest rank is some other rank that means they are bots.

Yeah, I sadly noticed that. It's pulling what Naraka Bladepoint did, a lot. Bots filling up. I got a funny feeling that when the BR mode is introduced, 90% of them will be bots to "make the player feel good."

I miss the days of die repeatedly, git gud, and die repeatedly some more as you learn.

I didn't notice this from checking profiles every match, where they only in lower league matches?

I did notice during challenges that they have different levels of ai controlled mechs from reallly easy to crazy hard. Harder than fighting players in a lot of cases.

I dont think you guys know what your talking about.

you are in a low league so bots backfill

Giving a soft-landing with easy bot-matches in lower ranks is a good marketing strategy.

Easy to get mvp, easy to get 80%+ win percentage. When you're feeling good, the starter item pack advert will go through easier, you're more likely to buy it. Easy rank ups, rewards galore. Then, when the bots become harder and player teams begin appearing, the win percentage for the majority will begin going down, and the new "mod pack offer" will be an easier sell as well for you to get that edge over others (as mods give a direct advantage the higher tier they are).

Aside from what these guys said, you do realize this was a closed beta, not an actual release right?

I see very little reason for them not to do this in the main game too. If they went to enough effort to disguise them, why would they not keep them?

Seriously, if they were tagged [BOT] or something I'd probably wouldn't mind as much.

Instead, they hid them. They went as far as to give them fake player profiles. That feels kinda grimy.

Reddit threads say they existed at higher ranks (Diamond, Plat) too, apparently?

Real players always had their profile ID begin with 140 to 143. The bots always had a 100 in the beginning. It was hard to miss when you were actively looking for them. Naraka Bladepoint did the same thing.

Possible, but considering higher ranked players are reporting there were bots? I doubt it. Sometimes I straight up had matches where my teammates weren't bots, but the opponents were.
