Little Brown Killing Machines

I've ranted about bot super human capabilities before the launch and for the life of me I can't figure out why no changes have been made for the official release.  What I'm talking about is high lvl bots having super human aiming and ability timing.  If you are below 3000ish pwr you won't know what I'm talking about.  Here's simple facts for bots at higher pwr:

1)  They don't miss and have instant aiming.  For example, I've dashed across an open area with my Killshot and have been sniped mid-dash.

2)  They will activate their abilities with perfect timing.  If you dash ANY bot killshot you can expect to be half health after hitting him because it will pop you at the same time.  Zephyrs and Guardians will stun you exactly at 29.999999999999 meters. 

Now combine those capabilities with a Zephyr and you have the most asinine killing element in the game.  When you run into one and get stunned, you are D....E....A.....D.... DEAD!  There's no skill involved in it and noway to survive it.   Zephyrs are just a random thing that you run into a few times in the match that will 99% of the time kill you.  Plarium should just randomly drop a meteor on the map and kill players.  It's basically along the same lines of absurdity.  

When the devs were sitting in some pre-launch meeting, talking about the state of the game, what were they smoking?..........

I want some! LMAO!

But seriously,  why would you introduce an absurd element into the game to frustrate your paying clients?

The absolut best way to kill zephyer is with long arm at range or better yet get the Guardian we all know you have and crash his ability not too hard long arm for long range maps Guardian on close maps just take a note of that name charge him after he uses his ability they need to increase his CD to 12 sec or so tho but you can still kill

Thank you, Wargasm, for sharing with us. I'll forward your concerns to our game designers. We'll definitely address it.

Hey Wargasm, I know a Zephyr ability change has been suggested a lot recently on Discord. As for the bots being dominating I think it sometimes depends on the map.  I am over 3500 SP and on certain close quarter style maps the bots feel very easy, unless you stand out in the open.  

On any of the open style maps I agree with you.  You can't really take one step without being just obliterated.  On those maps I will either take Ares with longarms, Panther with railgun, or Redox/Arachnos with Mortars.  For Ares and Panther I will only peak out my head if their ability is up.  For Redox/Arachnos I usually just hid behind a wall or terrain and spam mortars.

Not saying my strategy is best but it seems to work in the current meta of the game.
