Deployment mode bots

TheSha · 2020-05-01, 17:14

Hello guys, I'm new here, I wanted to play in deployment mode with bots, since there are more maps available. Is it possible to do that?

Thanks

No. Deployment = online. cooperative = coop/bots. You can't mix

That's sad, because in deployment there are way more maps... I'm playing that because there are no servers near me without a high ping

We need to navmesh (add paths for bots to walk on) for each map with bot support. This is a lot of work, hence there are less maps.

Well that's a lot of work, do you plan on adding more coop maps?
Thanks

What about an INS map like a co-op, with bots that can only spaws on INS side as Civi, and human players can choose whatever side?

Such as the INS team are bots accept for anyone that switches, and everyone looks like civis, accept humans can request a special kit that looks like a civi, but has who's kit has a pistol?

In the past on co-op servers I've switched sides and played on the bot team, seems like something something like this would be possible?

Your forum country tag says Italy so if that's where you are you should definitely not have any issues with ping and for PR, even ping of up to 200ms is not really that bad so if you can get on a server and have about that much ping, you'll be fine. Oh, also, sometimes the server browser shows insanely high ping values so don't pay much attention to that. For someone in Europe, you will be able to play on EU servers and on US servers.

What about a map where you can destroy ammocaches and play against bots?

Just download the Retro Pack, I think those have some AI, not sure.
