Brink Multiplayers BOTs names

Post » Sun May 01, 2011 8:03 pm

Hi Devs,

I only got one request for this post. Can you add something like a "[BOT]" next to their nicknames when playing online?

In the end it's just a detail but, when I'm playing, sometimes I'm wondering if I'm the only real player or not... maybe I can see that with the "start button" but, when I'm in the action, I'll prefer to save/upgrade a "real player" than a BOT. If I could saw the [BOT] next to the names I could know more easier which one to save/upgrade.it's hard to know when I'm in the action... (Is that guy a Noob or a BOT? I made a great match but... was it against real people or BOTs....???)




It's not really an issue but, it could be more confortable I think. I just want to this game to get better :D

You will notice if is a real player it will have either a green, yellow, or red vertical line to the right of their name in the scoreboard, or sometimes it will have a headset sign around that area also.

I typically check the scoreboard during respawn to get a feel for the human player names and try to remember them.

Personally, I would prefer to leave 'BOT' out of it. The way it is now, it does a good job of blending Human and AI and gives it a good feel of 100% human. I think 'BOT' would take some of that away.

ok well, I'll do that (but that AI doesn't give me the 100% human feeling you're talking about lol)

Look on the scoreboard.

Headset Icon next to name=You.
'Person' Icon next to name=Bot
No Icon=Real Player

Not hard to figure out.

the creator of this thread just means they want to NOT have to press start and see who's a bot and who isn't. it would be more convenient this way when IN ACTION.

To make it easier you could always check the scoreboard once, find who the Human players are then add them to a fireteam. This will turn their in-game name Purple amoung a few other benefits of being in a fireteam.
