Killer Bots are deadly
Coconut shows off Killer bots having Wall hacks like Surv bots and having perfect accuracy on hitting.
Will 1v4 Killer bots be added to matches when killers DC instead of just ending the match?

All of a sudden you'll have alot more ppl concerned about DCes when you have Deathslinger bots who hit every shot in range.

at least they gotta play the game, it's better than nothing

I went against a Huntress bot in 2v8 and it wasn't that great. I think just like survivor bots are all different, the killer bots probably are too.

I would assume that the Bots will not be good in 1v4. I mean, look at the Survivor-Bots, they are terrible and basically help the Killer more than they help the Survivors. A Survivor-Bot is not better and probably even worse than no player. And I am very sure that their AI is toned down A LOT (but probably necessary, since Bots have Wallhacks and a Bot running from the Killer basically immediatly and wallhacking against him would be really hard to catch).
So even if the Killer Bots are decent in this video (I dont like this Content Creator, so I did not watch it), I would not expect the same Level in 1v4. Because in 2v8 there is a reason to make the Bots good, since they would support another player and a Bot on the Level of a typical Survivor-Bot would probably still turn the game into a 1v8. But in a 1v4, there is not really any need to make the Bot good.
Which is also a reason why I really dread the day they bring Killer Bots into Public Matches, since I want to play against actual humans and dont want to beat a bad Bot (same I dislike them as Survivors, I think Bots overall were a terrible mistake and should not exist outside of Custom Games).

I wish they would put them in custom matches already

I've had several games in which a survivor bot has played better than the sore loser they replaced, even going so far as to escape with said bot. You're underestimating how bad players can be.
As for this killer bot, yes I'd expect a worse performance in 1v4. This Nurse got a 7K but mostly because the streamer was 'supporting' them by pressuring and kicking gens. Had the survivors been, or been able to be, efficient on gens, it would have been little more than a 1K or 2K tops. So translated to 1v4 they'd be lucky to get one kill.
But the Nurse bot is surprisingly effective with Blinks and chases, which is impressive.
The Trapper bot on the other hand is abysmal in chase and his power hurts him more than aids him. The Trapper bots I've seen will; drop chase immediately to go out of their way to break a pallet, drop chase to reset a trap in an awful position, stand around aimlessly 'deciding' whether to go for traps, pallets, gens or survivors.
You can actually game the Trapper bot by playing distraction, if someone else is being chased, just drop a random pallet or disarm a random trap, the bot won't know what to do.
I think the AI as it is currently will struggle with all killers who don't have simple chase powers. Any killer with a secondary power like traps, too much going on.

Man I wish I was getting those bots lol the ones I get try to loop killers at a z wall on the edge map

Same. The last experience I had with a Survivor Bot was that the Bot humped me, because it wanted to sit on the side of the Generator I was on.
I would honestly rather play without a Bot, at least then the Killer gets less PGTW-Usage.

The bots run around the map 90% of time from what i see . Even head on swf's do gens more frequently

He's also the guy that promoted an AFK Pinhead playstyle that literally had a 0% chance to win but relied on survivors literally rage quitting out of frustration, that's what did it for me. At least AFK Pig, while unfair, technically did have a win condition and could kill people.

Yeah seems bot Killers with simple chase powers are the strongest variant setup killers and other complicated the bots have a hard time
1 -
U got them high mmr bots i guess. my bots do 5% of gen progress than start running laps around the map for fun
1 -
problem with bots is if they detect even .5 sec of a terror radius they start running even when killer is chasing somebody else

It's very likely IMHO that Killer Bots will inevitably come to the game, both in 1v4 and customs. I guess at least Survivors can see what it's like to play against a Huntress with wallhacks now?
