[I-B-S] The_Angry_Admiral Players 1,173 posts Report post #1 Posted April 8, 2022 I'm not sure if any of you have noticed but in my games there is always a camoless and clanless player who just sort of moves around at the back of the map not really doing much. They never yolo and when the whole team starts to push it doesn't quite register the move so it just sort of moves around a bit more but then at an odd time it will just suddenly start moving forward. Also when teammates are being fired at it won't really fire until after your mates are dead or one has died before it will actually shoot. It's extremely odd behaviour and I notice it with premium ships that actually come with free camo so having that camo would actually help your stats and credits. Are these bots? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I met one a month or two ago. If it wasn't for my rpf, I wouldn't even know he was there. He didn't move or shoot until the precise moment he was spotted and even then only moved a few km forward, stopped and started shooting at the water. Also dcp'd the fire faster than an autoclicker.

To be fair to WG, I haven't seen [CLAWS] around for some time now. Still doesn't mean you get players that behave like poorly coded bots (typically in Pommern or Agir) in co-op. Kinda sad that you guys get it in Randoms though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen players that are members of clans behave like drunk potatoes too. You really do wonder if there's anything up there. On the other hand, I've also seen clanless players drive their ship like an absolute hero. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yup, that guy. I watched what he (it ?) was up to in one match. Turrets weren't even pointing anywhere near the enemy ships. In fact, aft turrets were at 90° to the forward ones (fwd guns pointing 45° back, aft guns pointing +45° foward ) Only way you can do that is if you point the camera down looking off the side at the ship at the sea about 10meters away from the hull.

I had him in my team many times. Always botting 2ndary ships. I guess he played them 100 times manually, hence the main gun and torp kills, and then set them up for botting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
