Why is standard 3v3 just filled with BOTS?

[Lachleo]

The game just had a free weekend, tons of new players, its the standard game mode and the most popular...

So why is every game filled up with ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bots?

Can the queue not just last another 30 seconds and we get real players? Why is this necessary?

It would only be filled with bots if people have left.
A 3v3 game won't start without at least 4 players.

Play ranked, problem eliminated.

Bots > Nothing. They can be replaced by players, so it's not like you are stuck with bots instead of real players.

It's often the case that one player often has to play minutes with a bot. It destroys whole games.

I guess it would be only a small change in the code to eliminate this BUG. But the Psyonix guys do not seem to care.

I don't mind bots. I've won lost causes because bots are predictable teammates. Unlike the wimpss that rq after the first goal. I've made many bots MVP on my team because they know what's up.

Maybe you should send them a friend request if you love them so much?

There is no need to put a bot in each game and it is against the purpose, makes the game bad. It's a serious bug.

And then you need them to do an aerial :)

Just hit em hard enough.

You don't seem to know what a bug is. Are you eleven?

This breaks the game. It isn't intended to play 2 vs 1 + bot, but it happens all the time. Thus it's a bug.

A game design flaw (as you view it) is not a bug. Non-ranked RL however is working as intended so it's not even a design flaw.

Ok then it may be intended and thus a heavy design flaw. But it's still breaking the game experience and this for months already.

JUST PUT 4 PLAYERS IN A 2 vs 2 and 6 PLAYERS IN A 3 vs 3.

So after 500 hours you srill play unranked and dn't know what a bug is

I play mostly unranked, 95% unranked.

I just want this game to be improved. It's not working as intended and therefore it's a bug.

[kale, like the plant]

But it IS working as intended. They programmed bots to replace players. They're doing that. There is no bug.
