Bots in Dead by Daylight????

I have played many online games that use bots in their servers to work side by side with the player base to improve the players experience. Personally I feel like this idea would help out dead by daylight a lot. I was thinking having the choice between a bot game (on both sides) or normal dbd would be fun, even if it was just a practice tutorial organized like a real game. I was also thinking that if they got good at programming these bots it would be great to see these bots in real lobbies (before they perfect bots I would think it would be best to only make bot killers, or make bots only come in 4s or none so survivors dont have chance of getting a incompetent bot on their team.) Eventually if done right it would make killers and survivors have a chance to run into an easy game and feel like they are dominating lobbies more often even if their skill level is lower than long time players. Bots in rank 20 to 17 would help new players get more familiar with dbd rather then getting thrown into camping and tunneling just because that's how newer players play. Bots would also help lobby times tremendously.

    Bro these devs can't even code perks, matchmaking, maps, cosmetic clipping, server issues, balancing, a decent game. You think these people could code bots?

    DBD Mobile is introducing Killer and Survivor bots for when players disconnect from the game. If it works out, would be nice to have it in the non-mobile version. A potato survivor bot is better than a DC.

    Peanits commented on this in another thread. Its not a priority as for mobile, lost signal happens frequently so bots are needed more there.
