Useless Bots

You know the rules but the game's played in a completely different way. Before you couldn't play poker seeing anyone else, just their cards. Now you can see them, it's completely different, even though the rules are the same.

Peeps see in 320 degrees on PC, anything weak won't get a chance now unlike console games, where everything's fair game when you can't watch your own back. Likewise, anything with omnipotence in one direction is sudddenly omnipotent in all.

I've been playing since 1997 on PC, and 2001 on a variety of non-MS consoles. There's no way knowing how any game on one platform category works can be applied to the other.

You've been playing since August and you don't know the annihilator timer? LOLZ NOOB. GUESS THE GAME IS STILL NEW TO YOU.

I'm not being serious. Its actually 3 minutes for the annihilator timer. Every minute would be insane. And no, spawning those bots is like giving the other team free money. Buzzers even say in the description they die to any shot.

I think Buzzers are more useless on the PC version due to better aiming. In the same way that Snipers have a hell of an easier time aiming for heads, players have an easier time aiming for buzzers.

Yes, sorry. I must have been thinking the Juice cooldowns. My mistake.

I'm just busting your balls. I'm your friendly community mathematical equation.

yup buzzers and scramblers in particular are completely useless, i understand that deadstretch may find them more useful playing the xbox version of this game but on pc we have the ability to turn faster, aim better, hear better and have better vision due to higher turn speeds. I play tank too and have never once been even close enough to a scrambler for it to cause any annoyance to me. See one, one shot, dead. Bouncers on the other hand are very effective.

I agree. Scramblers are the most useless bot of all. Buzzer ar okay though. The main reason I spawn them is because of their ability to annoy snipers ^-^

Scramblers are useless. I'd rather spend my easy-earned money on upgrading turrets in the base rather than waste 100 on something that dies in 2 pew pew's.

The whole point of this threat that now with the game on Steam, and updates not restricted by Microsoft, maybe Uber can really add some more to the game in a big future update where one of the changes are the spawnable bots get a second look at and become viable purchases.

I fully agree with our resident polynomial.

It's rare that my Buzzers manage to get past certain walls, LaseRazor Arena is particularly notorious for this.

And Scrambles a problem? Unless you are new to this game it's very rare a Scrambler gets up close and personal to any pro. As a Sniper I've effectively given up on spawning bots.

I find Gap Shots, next to Gremlins, to be one of the most effective bots you can spawn. With Gap Shots I manage to get quite a decent number of assists and kills. Gremlines also manage to really harass pros. Bouncers can be annoying, although their pathing is funny at times. I've seen them run into the enemy moneyball area, only to run out again and back to the middle area.

They will try to grab the nearest pro. If one of your teammates just respawned and makes his way to the middle they might try to catch him.
