The BOT button is being used by players as a "get out of jail free" button when they get hit with abilities from the police. I didn't notice it so much until a few days ago. Just about every single time I used my abilities on support players, their car disappeared and re-spawned closer to the target car. This basically negates the effect of even using the abilities on anyone but the target car. It's cheap and to be honest, I don't think the BOT should be functional while a player is being hit with police abilities or while they are under a police countdown.
If the game never puts me any closer than 300 to 400 yards away from the main target, including the first start, how do you suggest I do that? Unless they make a mistake, I can never get close enough. Of course, even when I do, the AI police make sure to slam me into oblivion. I got hit by 3 different AI police cars in less than 12 seconds and all from different directions. I had a guy down to a 2 count today, because he was stranded on a wall and an AI police car came out of a field and slammed into me, knocking me into him and causing his count to reset. Of course I was a half mile away when I landed and when I used back on track, I was then 3/4 of a mile away.Originally Posted by CSP_Mork Go to original post
Not always. It is dependant on some factors. I've been placed as close as around 100m, yes, but mostly it is around 150-200m. I've also been placed about 400-500m and then there are those instances, where I'm placed to the beginning of the crate run (so easy 1+km from the racer)Originally Posted by ayyy.lmao_ Go to original post
As a racer, the BOT is more likely to work (puts me around 100-150m), but then most often it is right behind trafic or cop AI, that will cause me to instantly crash (not mentioning the guardrails and woods - but I think that this is more related to the runner location at that very moment, runner doing wallriding or going offroad by mistake).
there,fixed that.Originally Posted by P6tu Go to original post
i swear to God,if i had been recording earlier.....
my first race of the day,and Every time i used the Bot id get one of two outcomes.
either,the previously mentioned Woods/House/Fence/Water at warp speed!
or
as soon as i spawn,one of the cop cars immediately aggros to ME and crashes me off the road with a Perfect strike.
Every Freaking Time.
seriously...wtf...
and hey,
this is with me Watching the map to See where my main guy iS and is Heading to determine a good angle Before using the damm Bot!!
thats a Tip for you guys who didnt know btw.
Edit: op,i agree with you about this.

I have been placed 2 - 3 miles behind at times. Usually, BOT means a tree, a river or 10 feet from a roadblock while going 180 mph. I have spawned flying through the air in a completely different direction today on 3 occasions. I got the police bike today and I have to say, if they are going to continue to allow the cop AI to attack us, WE WANT SOME DAMNED DEFENSES AGAINST THEM AS WELL!!!Originally Posted by ayyy.lmao_ Go to original post
Well, the times when I try to make sure that I don't run into any guardrails or something, then i get wiped out immideately by a cop AI who just whooshes through me and kicks me out of the way like I was never there...Originally Posted by EvilAg3nttttMan Go to original post
