the official CZ bot is the DUMBEST bot to ever have walked the surface of a CS map. That's my point and I stick to it >
Look, I'm just back from a CZ game. I'll tell you how it is. First, I carefully choose my teammates, click, click, click and hop, here's a fear inspiring team of fierce CTs. Then, I read about the objectives and I launch the dust2 mission.
I think, here's some interesting match about to happen now. I buy a kevlar plus helm, one or two nades, the appropriate guns and a stock of fresh ammo. My money drops to insane bottoms, but I don't care, because I pwn. Ready ? Go.
I have been alive... 5 seconds.
Fiercely rushing, knife at hand, about to reach the double doors of the upper bomb site, when suddently something bounces at my feet as someone screams out "Fire in the hole!" in my back. BLAM. My health points drop to 54 while I go WHAT THE... ? and comes another grenade. RE-BLAM. "We lost the commander".
Grenaded.
By my own team.
I mean, this bot is a joke. They throw nades like seriously brain-damaged idiots. They throw them at spawn, when NO ENEMY is around, anywhen, anywhere BUT when and where they should. I have been naded in the same way in cs_italy, de_dust, cs_office and de_prodigy. They have dumb-like reaction times, about ONE full second, and when they finally decide that it would be wise to open fire, they spray and pray. I have been headshot several times by an opponent bot emptying his AK47 in one row, running, strafing and jumping, from the other end of the map. At this point you start to wonder whether something would not be seriously fucked up somewhere.
And the l33t navigation ? Hah. These bots are prolly unable to match a POD-bot. In cs_italy, they bump into walls, and they are unable to jump through the window in the hostages house. I've seen them trying: 4 attempts out of 5 failed miserably.
They can't even defuse the bomb when it's about to blow, they WAIT FOR ME TO DO IT !!! Even if they all wear defuse packs and I am the only one in the team to have none !
Who the HELL invented the rumour that these bots were GOOD ?
the only good thing there is that I found worth noting is their aiming. Period. All the rest is crap, an utter waste of code.
Well, I don't know what you think, I just wanted to rant. I feel better now, thank you.
