Bug Report Topic / Invasion Discussion

OK we've now had all the usual jokes etc, can we now have (from admin) the view on what will happen to the bots. Too many times, posts are made here in seriousness and then the topic gets derailed and the original post is lost and then nothing gets done. So Bots stay? Yes or No. (plus the reasoning why please)

Bots draw fire from live players when there is low player count. Surely this is a benefit?

It also makes it feel less lame to play when there are bots, as opposed to playing solo.

Not really, to be honest I'd rather play solo it's not like they do anything useful like ress you, any benefit they have by drawing fire is negated by the fact the monster count will increase because they're there in the first place.

Maybe you can code in how to get bots to ress players too ?

Has it always been like this? I've noticed whenever the player count goes from 2->3 monster count goes from around 20->50.

[Azarael]

Monster count is linear with playercount. There is also scaling which spawns extra monsters and makes them more difficult in intervals of two players, starting at 5.

Totems were hostile in the made-to-invade map.

Talk about owned.
