Plus, friendly bots have proven to be pretty inept compared to enemy bots in ranked multiplayer. Almost always, it ends up being me versus practically the whole enemy team, and it gets really frustrating - I'm constantly trying to revive my teammates (who'll get killed at the start of the match) while trying to avoid getting swarmed by the enemy team. It'd be awesome to be able to set friendly bot difficulty so it's on par with the enemy in ranked multiplayer.
Can we also please have the option to fully customize bots in Custom Matches (gender, armor, weapon, color scheme, emotes, executions, etc., etc.), and the ability to choose which AI faction is attacker and which is defender for Dominion and Skirmish? It'd be a real nice touch if all customized bot heroes were displayed during the face-off in the loading screen, too.
Some of us have been requesting these features for months. It'd be a great way to give players the freedom to play out epic fantasy battles exactly the way we want. It'd be a ton of fun.
We've forwarded the suggestion of choosing the AI faction to the team, but full customization of bots, down to their cosmetics, is likely going to be a low priority to the team when compared to the hero balancing and stability updates. While focus towards developing the feature is unlikely, it's still certainly a possibility for the future.
