QUICK-PLAY BOTS???

[Typical Horseman]

Why does it feel like there's random lobbies where I'm going into quickplay but it instead puts me against ai?! It's driving me insane because it's unbelievably boring

[l0c0m0tif]

because it's just Quickplay it's practice.

You really want to smash your head into a rock, go into comp rank up game... then someone is like i gotta pee BRB.... like dude..... pee your pants! Don't waste 5 other people's time!!

its usefull to farm those achievements since they'll be impossible in 6 months.
The point of bots in quickplay is to sustain engagement as it break people loosing streak.
Very short sighted solution as actual player have caught on to the trick , but maybe some people on auto-pilot wont realise and/or still can use that to make cool clips.

It's when you lose too much it gives you what is supposed to be an easy win to make you feel better.

[DaylightDemon]

you can check if you had bots in your game by going into the replay and spectating. if you cant spectate a certain player, its a bot. however ive never had that happen to me personally.

You have two AI Bots on your team vs 6 AI Bots in Quick Play after 2-3 loses every time. it's annoying as ♥♥♥♥. It's basically just a formality now in order to play with REAL Players.

Ranked is never AI I know. I wana play not sweat my ass off.

Yes this a botted game. Player vs Bot should be one of the main tags. It's botted for player retention, not for queue times.

They're banking on you being so brain-dead you don't notice.
Trick your monkey brain with some dopamine, keep you playing longer.
4players 2bots vs 6bots.
Give you an ez win, maybe you'll even get MVP! Good job!

Well done on beating the programmed-to-lose bot.

ALL THE WHILE TRYING TO HIDE IT, using normal sounding names, programming them to goof round in spawn pre-game.

Enjoy bots in ranked in the years to come shteatrs, they'll only get better.

If they truly listen to the Players, then remove Bots from Quick Play, if you want to play with Bots and practice, that is what the Practice vs AI Bots gamemode is for that sole reason.

Sadly, QP has bots in some matches. I just had my first 2 yesturday. Typically, theres at least 2 Human players and the rest are bots. It becomes pretty sad pretty quicky...

[MajorJace]

And you still get a penalty if you leave, it's dumb. Forcing me to play against Bots.

[Space DVAs69]

I feel that. I played 2 matches in a row with bots. Almost quit MR entirely.

[SolutionS]

You only get bots after a loss streak in QP, They will be the entire enemy team. There are no bot fillers with human players. You can check if the enemy is bots by them all being low level when loading into the game and after the game all their profiles will be private. Oh and not to mention you will win even if you try and lose.

There is a megathread on this that started when the game released. Not saying this is a good or bad thing Just pointing out the current facts regarding bots in quick play.

[MajorJace]

More players complaining about Rank resets, they listened about that. Either there isn't enough people complaining about Bots in QP or they're just ignoring people.

it's netease common practice so customers will have easy win matches and not actually quit playing the game, it was made in favor of casuals. if u registered u account and que for pvp, first ever "pvp" match will be against bots so u will get mvp and dopamine boost of how "good" u are and continue to play

You only hit bots in Quickplay if your losing a lot. If your seeing a lot of Bots, you are earning them.

Until we start making it known to everyone, not much of a rush when you know your opponents are not even real.

We know that, it's more about learning from your mistakes. I would rather keep losing and improve by trying use new things against real opponents that are actually trying to prevent you from winning the match, unlike the AI Bots.
