How intelligent are the bots?I still remember some CoD 1 bots who just stood at the spawn points and shot all the time.The bots are extremely good and move around all stock maps using a waypoint system which has been coded so the bots do not move in a predictabe manner. They follow different paths and don't bunch together. From what I saw, they pick the following: M16, AK-47, M4, G36c, G3, M14, MP44; Mini Uzi, Skorpion, AK-74u, P90; W1200 (I only tested shipment and creek though).A few bugs you might want to fix.

1. Cod4 Bot Warfare

The bots are ALWAYS displayed as holding AKs, and in the killcam, the same thing happens. They're holding an AK-47, but when the fire, it turns to what they're really holding. You might also want to change their walling capability, they know where you are regardless of what you do. Maybe conduct a visual test?

Cod4 Bot Warfare

I also don't think any bots tried to knife me, even at very close range.Otherwise, very well done, this is the best of its type from what I've seen. Hi everyone,Please check out the Readme.txt file that is included with the mod. It answers most questions.I need to make on thing clear.I personally haven't created this mod. All credit must go to Pezzalucifer a.k.a Pezz (his details, email address etc are in the Readme.txt file).Pezz doesn't post in this forum. He posts in the official Infinity Ward forum, so please check there for answers to any questions if you can't find them in the Readme.txt file.I post there too.Hope this helps!JamJam11This post has been edited by JamJam11: Sep 4 2008, 10:49 AM.

Is the bots same as the cod4 single player bots??Hi,The bots in Single Player have been given some level of artificial intelligence through the programme code (they retreat and take cover etc) but this isn't really possible through general scripting which is what PeZBOT is made up of.Therefore the answer is No, but they still work really well for Multiplayer. I'd recommend you try the mod then decide for yourself. I don't think you will be disappointed.At the end of the day this mod was released (April 08) only six months after CoD4 was released, whereas is was a good two years or more before a 'good' bot mod appeared for CoD2 (by that I mean the Meatbot)!JamJam11.

Just a bit of news on PeZBOT and plans for the future, in case anyone was wondering.I've spoken with Pezz (creator of PeZBOT) via email and he has confirmed:'I'll probably port pezbot to cod5 as soon as it's released, as long as the mod tools work with it that is.' So fingers crossed we will get bots for CoD 5 later this year!With regards to PeZBOT and CoD 4 he said:'I'm really busy at the moment, so i dont have much time to do pezbot stuff.' And'Hopefully i'll get some time to work on pezbot soon, just not sure when.' So, I don't think another version of PeZBOT will be released in the very near future. So enjoy v7.0 for now.Cheers,JamJam11. I finally got round to trying this out, and I must say well done to whoever created it!

The bots are pretty intelligent considering, although they can tend to clump together a lot sometimes. Also, at points they appear more intelligent that public players because if they get boxed in they do not start to camp but bust out in one rush together.Great mod!Hi Joshua^,Have you patched your Call of Duty 4 to version 1.7?

And are you using PeZBOT v7.0?I only ask as most problems with the mod come from the user not having the most recent version of it, plus not having the game fully patched.A guy called Perry Hart (aka Pezzalucifer) created the mod. He is a Games Programmer by profession.Prior to the current version (v7.0) he has always released the source code for the mod so people can create their own waypoints for custom maps. I've asked him to do this for v7.0 and he has agreed to do so when he gets the chance.Waypoints for some custom maps are available for version 6.2 of PeZBOT.

You can read about it here:JamJam11. I have made the shortcut to deal with loading pezbot and having more than 1 bot show up, and still, only 1 bot shows up. This is what I have in the 'target' box of the shortcut for cod4:'E:Program FilesActivisioniw3mp.exe' +set fsgame 'mods/PeZBOT' +set svrpezbots 9 +set svrpezbotsteam axis +set svrpezbotsdogpacksize 3Still, they dont show up. I have tried setting the team to any (aka they join both teams), and have tried with only 2 bots, and have tried without the dogpack. Still I only get 1 bot.

This year’s Call of Duty will buck tradition and ship, developer Treyarch confirmed today. Instead, the focus for will be almost exclusively on competitive multiplayer and cooperative Zombies mode.While there will be activities for players who want to play Black Ops 4 solo — they can play Zombies mode with AI-controlled bots or take part in single-player challenge missions — the bulk of the game is multiplayer.Dan Bunting, studio co-head at Treyarch, said that’s always been the plan.“When we set out to make this game, we never started with the idea that we would make a traditional campaign,” Bunting told Polygon in an interview today. “That was just not part of our plan. We started from a place that we were gonna make a game that across the board can be playable with friends. That’s been our mission from day one.“Of course, through the course of development, as always happens with every game, we’re to challenge our conventions trying different things. Sometimes those things are bold and crazy and innovative sometimes things work out, sometimes they don’t work out.

As development goes on though, you’re always pushing the best ideas forward and that’s what was reflected today.”When Polygon that the single-player story mode wouldn’t be part of the Black Ops 4 package, sources said that a planned campaign simply didn’t come together in time. Bunting’s response appears to refute that. So I asked Bunting why Treyarch would make the decision to cut the campaign, a feature often seen as a core pillar of the franchise.“If you look at the Black Ops series and how players have interacted with it,” he said, “how our players are engaged with our games — changes in the industry around us are obviously a big part of it — it’s being more and more experienced as a social thing.“Of course we have a very large Zombies following with the Black Ops franchise. And when you look at how they interact with our game, whether it’s in the game itself, online, forums, streamers, YouTubers everybody’s interacting as a community and it’s a pretty massive phenomenon. When you see that kind of a passion for our game that we feel is potentially underserved, we want to make sure we have more of that.“The same is true of multiplayer.”Bunting went on to say that over the past decade or so, how people play Call of Duty — specifically how many of them have played online multiplayer — has changed.“When I first started on multiplayer in the Call of Duty franchise, 10 percent of our population was playing competitive multiplayer,” he said.

“Fast forward to 2015 or 2016, you’re looking at 90 percent of our players are playing multiplayer. If you look at it through that lens, and trying to deliver more for your players and how you’re playing the game, it’s a pretty easy decision. I realize it’s also a challenging decision for other reasons.

But we’ve never been ones to shy away from a challenge.”Bunting said that Treyarch is “constantly. Assessing the game” in an effort to ensure it’s doing the right things with the franchise and doing the right things for its fan base. Given the increased focus on competitive and cooperative multiplayer, I asked him how Treyarch plans to service the Black Ops 4 community with content in the coming year and beyond.“ Black Ops 4 is built to be expandable, adaptable, and it’s going to evolve over time,” he said. “We’ve gone into this knowing that we’re making a game that can be played with friends across the board and going to be played for a long time to come, many years. We learned that lesson in a big way with Black Ops 3.

We didn’t necessarily build Black Ops 3 to be run like that. We just learned, evolved and adapted to run it that way.

We’re still not done releasing content for that game.“As long as they keep playing your game, we’re going to deliver. And we’re making a game from the get-go that lives on. Expands, and grows and changes and evolves.

I can’t tell you what content we’re going to release in two years. I can tell you that we’re going to release a bunch of content in the year following this game and we’re going to support it in ways we never have before.”I asked Bunting if the focus on multiplayer and playing with friends would affect how future Black Ops 4 content is released — specifically, if Treyarch and Activision would continue with Call of Duty’s standard release plan of downloadable map packs and Zombies episodes every few months.“I can’t tell you at this point in time what that’s going to look like,” he said. “But I can tell you that we are pushing hard to release content to our fans in a way that’s going to make them happy and a way that we believe is the right thing to do in this stage in our game’s lifespan.”.
