They are adding bots so that a DC happens the bot can take the place and the 3 other survivors do not waste their time. Because lets face it a 3v1 in the beginning of a game is not pleasant for the survivors and it is boring playing as killer. Lately so many people DC for the most stupid of reasons that i still wonder why they que up in the first place. Don't get me wrong if you actually have a DC thats not good. But i had people in my games DC'ing because i play a certain killer, i had people Dc'ing after first down etc... its not fun anymore for both sides in my opinion. I even had a DC not so long ago playing as killer and had a clicky survivor who wanted to take agro so i tought lets see how long he can loop me... He went down after about 30 - 40 seconds and DCs after a mindgame gone wrong for him and i downed him. At that point when you DC you are making the game even worse for 3 other people.

Pretty sure theyre referring to the killer bots that have been in the game for years now, all they do is stand still and swing

The event ended and we have a dlc in 2 weeks. We're in a lull period. A lot of people are just going to be playing something else until Nic Cage drops.

Waitaminute…. Is that all they do? Cuz I had a Doctor a long time ago just use his power and swing his weapon. He wouldn’t engage in chase or anything. I all this time thought it was just another player being a doofus, but it was a bot?

Maybe bots will be even playing better than my teamates tho. I m getting extremely bad teamates often, i dont get they dead so quickly tho.

No those are actual players.
