one way to counter a bot on gaijin side is to check the amount of input coming from the key board since and if they detect not a lot of input say in 2 minutes the game should scan the user side for any other programs.
While I hate script users, if they do smth to them it will be as hard to get into the battle as on other brs outside of Moffets/Des Moneyes/Helenas swamp.
I dont care about the wait time I would rather wait for a match that is in the BR im playing rather than one im not or full of bot script players.

I think the latest fix may have removed alot of the player farm bots, im seeing more then just the helena and des moins premiums now, ive faced more tech tree ships in my last 3 games than i had in a week of playing, i dont know if they are actual players or gaijin bots, but ill take gaijin techtree bots over the same old helena premium spam anyday of the week,

Naval is a cash cow because of them!!
Even using the low-rank-crew dodgy unarmoured French cruisers I’m making bucketloads!

sooo no news or any mods or dev guys saying anything to us -_- probably working on shorting these forms out more.
Implement a limit per Nalval RB battle on Moffets, Helenas and other popular farming ships. These days only Moffets are playing in any given battle. Hardly any other ships are present. This kills Naval RB mode.

Oh, absolutely. And personally I’m fine with waiting even a few minutes in a queue to find a match in Moffett/Helena, if it means that while playing other ships in that BR range it won’t be just a spam of other Moffetts/Helenas. Or don’t let people spawn it, if there’s more than X vessels of the same type in the game (which you could also extend to CAS in GRB - no more plane or heli spawns if there’s more than X of them in the match already).
And it should be game-wide, as there are modes and BRs where 1 vehicle dominates - e.g. F-5C, etc.
I cringe everytime i see players with 1000+ mathces in the USS Moffett. THE tell-tale sign og botting.

i tend to look at players who only bring one ship with them and when I see them with more deaths then actual kills which doesn’t seem like a person player im like this guy is a bot script…report.
Unless it ends up hurting their bottom line, im not sure much will be done, sadly… as many of these accounts in question have multiple premium packs at the least… compare that to a f2p non-purchase (hypothetical fyi) account, despite any violations of user agreement.
I would like to think that plans are in the process to try to mitigate the amount we see, but it may just be a pipe dream… idk

I’ve seen a few bots using French ships today. Not sure what the advantage of that is over the usual Moffett/Helena spam.
This is crackhead talk.
Indeed… I tried raising concerns after I had someone come to me saying they weren’t listened to…
I also got the cold shoulder.
Still waiting for the correct people to approach me.
waiting along time then hey
There are even full bot squads, I’ve seen few. Created in one day and all joined in the same day.

You have to report the squadron by using the Squadron Replay feature.
