Riot needs to improve its bot AI.

Zero Shingetsu··3 votes·1,127 views

I've been playing this game for... Four years? Five? Off and on, but for a long time. And yet I think I can probably count the amount of good, worthwhile teammates I've had on my hands. Until Riot gives us the option to play AI games that are actually fun, there's honestly no point in playing this game anymore. It's a waste of time to play a long, drawn out match during which my teammates say nothing at best, and threaten to violate and/or kill my daughter at worst.

Give me AI teammates who respond to my pings. That's all I ask. More could, and should, be done to improve the AI, but as long as they listen to my pings I'll be happy. Until then, I'm not wasting another second of my time on this community (good ones among you notwithstanding), and I'm beyond done giving my money to it. Everything they've done to clean up the community hasn't made a dent. Improve the bots. It's the only way to have fun games at this point.

It's sort of a double edged sword. The day they can make an AI that can beat you at league is the day we get turned into biological power cells to fuel the global machine invasion.

In the meantime, there are plenty of other games. You could try Parcheesi.

not sure why its so hard to get good AI. honestly dota has great Ai, it would be a good idea to put in that kind of level of Ai. mean the AI in dota groups up and does actual plays as a team and map rotations and what not.

Ouch... That's a point I didn't consider... Throws a bit of a wrench into things.

Well I do play shogi and there's always Kancolle, but sometimes I just feel like playing a MOBA for some stupid reason. On the upside, Heroes of the Storm is fun in moderation and Paragon has a lot of potential. Hopefully within the next few months, I'll have a MOBA fix with pretty strong bots.

Best response EVER. I laughed quite a bit.

I did really like the Doom Bots. Those were the days...

Wouldn't anything make a better battery, though? Like a battery? You have to keep humans fed and hydrated...keep them under stasis...just mass produce car batteries and you're solid lol.

The human body is amazing at metabolizing energy. It also has the capacity to duplicate itself, generating more batteries. I'm telling you, man these machines are gonna fuck us over. Now if you'll excuse me I'm all out of aluminum foil.

Yes, but it needs energy to metabolize energy. You have to have the resources to keep them alive! Why not just us use as recharging stations for car batteries?

"Well fuck, I'm going to die in two hours...wheres the human?"

"There's a human plugged into the wall over there. I'll plug you back in, just enter Sleep Mode."

I can't help but feel like we have perhaps diverted this thread somewhat. I do want to thank you for waking me up with a laugh this morning.

May your human charging station be filled with beautiful ladies (and/or sexy men in speedos). Be well.
