Should Bots be Reworked or do you think there fine
I've been thinking on how Bots Acted in this game and the more I go against them the more I realize how broken they actually are. They don't miss Skill Checks or do anything else but get on Gen after Gen. When Player Survivors do more then Just do Gens.
I wish there was some way to add difficulties in the Custom Game to make them act different. Like have a setting to put random Bots with random perks and tools plus if you want to practice against bully Squads or Sabotaging Squads you can make the Bots act this way to improve on these type of players when they show up.
I know Bots can only do so much for a player but I think there should also be a Bot Killer as well to help Survivors improve on Looping some killers. And again I think there should be Differently settings on the type of killer Like basement camping, face camping, tunneling all that type of stuff.
I think this can make Custom game more open and available for players to not only mess with but also learn the game in a controlled area without Judgement.
What do you guys think of this

Well they're better than DBDM's bots ever were, I don't see them as a problem since you almost never see them

You want bots to work on Tome Challenges?
If you want real practice, you're going to have to face survivors that don't miss skill checks and just work on gens. If you want help finding them so you can practice chases or something, I think that would be best accommodated with customized perk loadouts rather than having different levels of AI they have to program. (Just bring NTH, BBQ, etc., and give them no perks)

Well this is two different questions I would say. On your last question, yes, it would be cool if there were killer bots to practice against. They have been working on that, and they do exist in 2v8, but they are incredibly bad which is why I think they haven't brought them to the game.
In regards to your first question, this is actually just not true. Bots absolutely miss skill checks, they spend large swaths of time picking up items to put them on other the other side of the map for seemingly no reason, they cleanse dull totems, and on top of that they will search for dull totems to do, running past a generator to do so. The reality is, surv bots are very very low skilled, and the things they do that are "good" are things that do not emulate a normal player. Bots cannot play m1 at all, but try and hit them with a hatchet and they instantly dodge them the second you release them. They could benefit from making the bots emulate humans more, giving a better experience, but any decent survivor is 100X better to have on your team than a bot. We shouldn't craft the bots to be only as good as the worst survivors in the game. They shouldnt be better than the average player, but have at least some ability to help win the game.

They need help against specific killers like Legion, IDK what it is but they just run around do p.much nothing all match against them. Saw one vault the same window over and over and over, it was wierd.

I remember when they use to get stuck trying to get out of tier 3 madness against Doctor. They would just sit there screaming over and over again. I wonder if they fixed that
