Bots having wall hacks defeats their purpose

BHVR advertised the bots in custom matches as a way for us to practice using killers, but the fact they can see you coming defeats that purpose. This prevents people from being able to properly practice using stealth killers or stealth perks. Is there any reason why the bots have wall hacks? They cannot be mind gamed which can be frustrating. Even in pubs, I'll down a survivor pretty quickly by mind gaming them, but if they DC the bot will take me longer to down because they can see me through walls.

    Maybe they don’t have actual wallhacks but are way too skilled in reading visual and audio cues above human capabilities and can determine the killers position that way?


    Fun fact, they also know where the hatch is once spawned. I once slugged one and killed the other remaining surv to check it and walk in a straight line from the bots first movement and found the hatch at the other side of the map right in that direction.

    I think the bot wallhacks need to be turned off too.

    Bots need the field of view and killer detection in such. Them seeing 360 is the issue. How they use the field of view should be handled by bot skill setting. I guess the current bots are good enough for basic use and future development will make them more skilled and useful. This is mandatory as their primary purpose is to replace players in matches.

    Also still no killer bots ? Can we at least get a few killer bots per year ? Like one with each update ? Even with that it will take few years to catch up with 30+ of them.

    While I can understand they have wall-hacks in public games, because without them they would be basically useless, and I'm okay with that, until they implement an actual ai for them, there should at the very least be an option to disable their wall-hacks in custom games.
