Will You Weaken Bot Looping Skill?
When facing bots, they are truly the best loopers. You literally can't mind-game them, because even if they don't see you, they always move the correct direction. Will the developers ever make bots more natural at looping, or is it a bit complex to do that as of now?
They are not strong in really any other areas, but it'd just be a bit more fun to be able to actually mind-game them.

I agree that bots ARE the best loops, but they are predictable in other ways. You always know how they will run a tile, aka the best way. So to face a bot is not a mindgame challenge. its a knowledge challenge, which happens with non bots too.
I dont think bHVR needs necessarily to nerf bots, rather maybe consider not going for the bot. You know its gonna run optimal so you know how long it could take, maybe check on gens instead, take out the rest of the Living Survivors?

The bots suck. They don't even know how to fast vault.

OP is right imo. They do need to not be god looperse, but they do need to be a bit better in other areas as well.

Bots are like the easiest to chase, because you can just dumb follow them and eventually they will run into a wall or medium vault a window for no reason... I mean I really don't know what to tell you when you get outperformed by bots xD I mean you're right, they always know what you are doing, but they are still complete trash in chase, they get stuck on everything, they vault a Z wall 3 times in a row and such, they are just not hard to chase.

My whole point is that it would be nice to be able to practice mind-gaming.

I know, they are truly bad and very easy to kill. It'd just be nice to be able to practice mind-gaming on them for the fun of it.

They suck in many ways, but I'd enjoy mind-gaming them. It'd at least make their rounds a LITTLE more normal.

The only nerf they need is on looping to allow you to mind-game them just to practice and have some more fun. It's annoying when they just keep running the right direction and never get greedy unless the loop is enormous.

Right but you already like have real living survivors to do that with.

It's nice to play the game more relaxing at times; it's not rare to face tryhards.

Not possible, you are playing Dead by Daylight. its a Dog Eat Dog World. And besides if the bots don't teach your the real thing anyway, you will be playing with them forever. I recommend you get out there champion.

Programming a bot to be able to mindgame and make reads on the human player is a lot harder than just giving them wall hacks and letting them keep the optimal distance.

Dude, I have over 3K hours. I know the game. Sometimes, though, it is just nice to play more relaxed in Custom Game so I that can DC whenever if I'm not feeling right at the time.

I know. It'd just be nice if they could play more normal.

I want to ask about this now: Do you like play a match, make a mistake and then want to DC right away? Is that it? is that what you want?

No, I just about never DC. That was literally my point there. Just sometimes I sort of want to play DbD but I don't want to face a bunch of tryhards, and so it's nice to relax in the Custom Games.
As I'm not a tryhard myself, I tend to only try builds that annoy survivors (and are often strong) in CG. I just about never bring Very Rare or Ultra Rare add-ons to public matches. Same with meme builds.
