The just lately added PUBG bots aren’t sitting very nicely with gamers, to say the least.
Fans have recognized for some time that PUBG Corp had intentions so as to add bots into the combination, however that hasn’t appeared to melt the blow. “We had a thread for the news that PUBG was adding bots into public matches with update 7.1 but I thought a follow-up thread was probably fine to share some feedback from fans,” writes one ResetEra user.
“And, guess what, THE BOTS ARE FUCKING TERRIBLE.”
There’s a very prolonged Reddit publish, embedded beneath, that claims the game is “officially dead and entirely ruined.”
This game is Officially Dead and entirely ruined. There are over 70 bots in the lobbies I’ve played in. There is zero tension, it’s boring as all shit. I have played this game more than most people by a significant margin. I really liked this game…but this..This isn’t even Pubg, this is a disgrace from r/PUBGConsole
“Bots are stupid as shit and move in straight lines or stand perfectly still, they are no fun to kill and no fun to fight and you don’t care at all about engaging them,” the publish reads. “This is the single most bullshit thing any company has ever done to a game post-launch.”
Amidst all of the raging bot hatred although, some gamers are viewing the change via a extra opportunistic lens. Bang smack in the midst of a dozen berating commenters lies one courageous, avaricious soul. “Hold on,” they write. “Gonna go win my first match ever. Been waiting for this for years…”
Another individual reckons bots are nice as a result of now their little brother can really benefit from the game with out getting picked off nearly immediately. Plus the bots gained’t seem in ranked so, actually, all of the hate is a bit a lot. They’re simply meant to make the game extra approachable to informal gamers seeking to have amusing. Not the top of the world.
