Multiplayer question

[safire]

Will Jedi Outcast have bots in multiplayer? Bots similar to Unreal Tournament? Or is multiplayer limited to humans only.

[sanpilou]

of course there will be bots!!! it's the q3a engine men, and if they don't place that option it will be modded (hail to the modders!)

apologies, I never play Q3. Played about every other FPS but not Q3, so I didn't know if it had bots or not.

I'm really hoping the bots act normal. Here's what I'm talking about.

 

The SP A.I. in Soldier of Fortune was terrific. However, the bots act VERY strange. In fact, most of them slide back and forth FRANTICALLY, while the rest are semi-normal. True, the bots almost HAVE to be tweaked from the SP game for deathmatch, but the bots in SoF were horrible.

 

I bought SoF Gold about a year ago, so I don't know if this was a last minute thing added in the Gold edition. Seems they are doing the same thing with SoF2.

 

I probably shouldn't worry though. This new A.I. system sounds great.

In SOF MP they ramped up the speed. I understand they've toned it down for SOF2...and probably JKII as well, except maybe for Force Speed.

 

The bots should be good with the level of AI they've scripted...though I'm not sure if we'll see the scalability of UT's. =)

I certainly hope the bots can use force powers well. With variety.

[Omne]

Although bots can never replace a human opponent, I hope they are very intelligent. Especially since I don't have a high speed modem, and will probably spend a lot of time with bots.

If you read one of the previews at JK2.net it will tell you that there will bot support. Can't remember which one.

I wonder if the bots will use certain strategies in Saber duels, or if they will just relentlessly attack without taking a breath.
