when I play ground realistic battles in the morning my games are small and full of bots. There might be 1 or 2 other players in the game, but for the most part it just bots. This doesn’t happen in the afternoon or night, the matches are a full with real people, no bots.

only SL, you don’t get RP or modification research against bots.
thats sucks. I was in a bot server in SA and based bombed to my hearts content. made 850K SL and over 100k RP.
sadly that was a one time thing because it has never happened since

It happens very limited in Asian server, never did when it existed as an actual thing, but since it is an automatic server this happened once to me, except I crashed on a third base bomb when due to the stupid weather.
Bots used to be in ground RB many years ago and were visable as “Bots”, nowadays they seem to be “Fake Names” instead to create the illusion of “Players”, unfortunately it seems too obvious that they are there to either a) force the win or b) force the lose!
Ever noticed how some bots seem hell bent of destroying Just you.! no focus on anything else OR completely ignore you.!
its a shame because it does seem that games are somewhat controlled, cant have you winning or losing severly in matches every time.!!
Ive had matches consistently fraggin 8-12 tanks in a row and then suddenly - its like ive got a painted target above my tank sayin “Here I AM!” and I can barely get a single shot off!
Ofcourse no one will ever confirm or deny existance of hidden ingame bots.

Exactly. I had three tanks on my team shooting at one target, fairly close. It completely ignored them and shot OVER them from a pretty lengthy distance just to destroy me and I had just came over the hill. At the point I figured the game must have bots…

Shockingly - it seems they are more comon than we know.! Isnt it bizarre how gaijin will not confirm or deny that they exist in Ground RB battles.??
Also isnt it very bizarre that after a massive victory - 10 odd kills, the next match is like theres a HUGE sign over ya head - BOTS MUST DESTROY!! at all costs… is it to make the next game even?? Never used to happen but in the last year - pretty much a garauntee its going too!
Just sayin what ive whitnessed - MANY TIMES!

|Well I must say the BOTs are on form today! Every other shot and im killed.!!
Players (Mwahahahaha) acting very strange, (updated Ai maybe??)
not to mention the same players with sod all profiling, random unrealistic stats making the most absurd and unrealistic shots from unknown locations the other side of the maps!
I must say Im realllllly impressed with the updates on them! Anything to control the outcome or game play it would seem!
Again - Im asking the Devs - Answer the question! are or aren’t fake players in the match to control aspects!? Specifically Ground RB!
Well I think thats enough Botting for 1 day!!
Every single match has been Exactly the same!!!
Sooooo Looks like its J Out every single match until something in the codeing/algorythm changes.!
and the reallllllly funny part - I’m not the only one saying it!!!
Many say this sort of thing when they are screaming into the forums, but I feel the reality is you’re seeing things you aren’t and because you think they are a thing and that there’s no other possible explanation, it makes you see that thought more.
Many talk about bots as a wider term, but they often group all bots into one, so there’s no picking which one you are having trouble with.
Genuine player, doing nefarious stuff, or actual AI bot.
What’s this ‘control aspects’, because that’s so obscure and obtuse that it’s clear you’re saying that for a reason.
The screenshots show that there are AI bots in matches if the matches can’t get enough players… Your tacked on end makes it a loaded question, because I know what you’re trying to edge to, but again, I think it’s just you seeing what you think you see because you’re already thinking it constantly.
Looks like a sim game. :/
@Wifi-Soldier98 I’m in Christchurch. I rarely get to play on SA because the snail wants me on NA. I haven’t seen bots for a long time.
So in essence - 1 match you kill 15 players, the next 2 matches you’re targeted by Ai Bots to prevent a mass wipe out again. It happens alot in game…
I remember previously many years ago - there were Bots,. they were even marked up as such in ground RB.
Now it seems it was changed to give them “Random names”, those ““Player bots”” ignore everything around them, even players driving right infront in Plain view.! YET they target specific players over and over. (Im not just talking about me here, ive watched countless replays) . I know - tunnel vision exists however - replays again allow you to watch what the “Player is watching”.
One of my many gifts from the creator gave me the ability to see things and critique/analyse which most wouldn’t.! In life and gaming. Ive seen some highly questionable activity and some clearly rediculous behaviours which yes has been tested over and over the years.
My point is very simple. No one will confirm that there are fake players “Bots” in ground RB. Those named players we all belive (you stated also) are created to give you the illusion you are against other “Normal Folk/Gamers” each with their own abilities.
Codeing isnt difficult once set up to create rules of Bias based on a players ability and or previous game outcome. Otherwise the best player in the world at WT would have a 100% stat rating across every single aspect and yet - that individual player will lose in the most rediculous way ( I garauntee it ) if in the "general population of Match Making!
So yes, Ai Bots can and are possibly used to drive a match into a certain direction.
Given that Most matches are full of theses “1 named” players suguests 1 of 2 things,
- Not enough players - despite 125k Players apparently online.
- Controlled game play to force the win/lose.
I’ve already identified that spawning in at the beginning of the game for example can be adjusted to give/remove the advantage, we allllll know RnG in game is completely farcical, 89mm pen killing a tank over 1 mile away. (i use that example as Ive done it and received it). So a game can be controlled by Ai not just in the generic game play but also in the enemies you are up against; by removing a strong player/s at the beginning will allow a balanced outcome and or force the win/lose scenario. (Ever had those matches where you spawn in and can barely get a shot in, dead twice and then game over? to the quite opposite in an open top tank - 8 planes flying around and completely untouched by CAS!?? )
You say its what one wants to see, I say I see it exactly as it is and imo - manipulated.! Sorry, as much as I enjoy the game and been a long term standing player, its become extremely obvious and in abundance.
125k players online, in amongst 14 BRs, 3 vehicle groups, 3 modes, across 3 server sets.
And the sense of matchmaking is literally like a Venn Diagram where some have all servers on, some only have one.
And thus it’s more weighted towards a lack of players in that specific range, at any certain time.
As the guy was saying, early morning in SA makes for a prime situation.
You’re going full conspiracy theory to try and say this sort of thing is…

Yup, 125k along the “sets as you put it”, which lets face it 7 ranks, 2 game modes (excluding Sim which is minimal )
So
AAB 7
ARB 7
GAB 7
GRB 7
Naval - Maybe 1000 max players at a time
Sim - Maybe 1000 players at a time
Custom - no clue in fairness, but!! say 50K players
leaving maybe 70k players
so each of the above – 5k players… maybe!??
You saying Match making cant make balanced matches with that many people??
which then if you’re saying that is can’t,. then Bots are added.!?
Does killing the bots registered in your vehicle stat?
Ranks have nothing to do with matchmaker, it’s all about BR…
How do you not understand or know this? Oh hold on, because it’s not going to make your argument valid, hence why instead of the 14 BRs, you fixate on halving that with the ranks.
And the mode is still 3, because it doesn’t matter how minimal you think a mode is.
As I stated, 3 server sets, 3 modes, 14 BRs, at any one time there WILL be a lack of players.
