Two bugs that would drastically improve my Brink experience if squashed.

(Dragnerok X) #1

FWIW, I play mostly offline.

  1. The “any” map option on freeplay mode doesn’t seem to be very random. I tend always get the same maps (e.g. sec. aquarium, sec sec tower, res. reactor…) with some map configurations rarely to never appearing, at least when starting games from scratch. True, I could always select a game manually, but fixing this would help keep me entertained when I’m feeling more spontaneous.

  2. For some reason, the bots aren’t using any of the new (agents of change) abilities or attachments, even after I’ve unlocked them. Given how interesting some of the new AOC content is, giving the bots access to it could add some new freshness to offline play.

I’ve seen bots use the new abilities a lot.

Are you absolutely sure? I’m pretty sure I’ve only ever seen the DLC abilities being used when there was at least one other human player, and their use has seemed proportional to the number of human players present.

(H0RSE) #4

I play bot matches by myself and have seen them used in practically every match.

(INF3RN0) #5

Bots do use them. I remember that when I decided to check out the DLC about a week after it came out and had to play offline because the 4-5 servers online were full.

I sure haven’t seen bots ever using them on my end. No pyro mines, no UAVs, no weapon shields, no bayonets, while at the same time I see them using other rank 5 abilities such as the lazarus grenades quite often. I’m on the PC version of Brink, if that makes a difference.
