If you mention the word bot they respond with no or my English not very good etc.
Generally imo this is pretty sad
Sad? Why? I think it's pretty cool that people are designing these things, okay they kinda suck at the moment but they're in the early stages, it's not like they're trying to cheese free wins on iccup with these bots...they're just testing them out.

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't notice if I played a bot lol. And I'd lost. I suppose I might have already, thanks for the eye-opener. :T

These bots are light-years from high level play, it would take some really serious work to get one there and I sincerely doubt that anyone will make that effort. So in the end the only ones suffering will be us iccup nubs.

So awesome. Id love it if there were bots in SC2 around the Platinum level.

I dunno, EIS From-Rush Bot was pretty hilarious.

The problem with this bot is that it tries to play "proffessional" level strategies but those require high amount of control, decision making and changing your plan a little bit based on what the opponent is doing. I think it wouldn't be very difficult to create a bot that could reach D+ rank, you just have to implement solid, agressive build with neccessary minimal micro (most likely 2 gate zealot pressure into maybe 4 gate goon) so it doesn't matter what the other player is doing.

Is there any bot for sc2?
It can probably go all the way to diamond =D

Ehh.. you could make a ling all in bot that would do various zerg all ins.. i mean its a bot so it could pull off kwanro level ling micro so these kind of builds would work well. 2 hatch muta too.

And the reason these are bad for esports is they crowd up the game list in online servers where you expect to play against people not bots. so its harder to find games with real people and battle net becomes frustrating. This kind of process killed tfc, dmc to mention games.
|
this is honestly pretty cool. I think a dropbox guy made one for sc2 a bit back, and I was soo impressed XD
|
is it hard to find these bots and get a game? i'd like to play one
|
I'm coding one of these bots for a competition against these guys and I can't even send probes to enemy bases correctly yet >.>
I think that SC is too hard for a bot to ever get past C level, but some people say in 80 years it will reach progamer level. I don't know, it's very hard. But all this is open source, so who knows!

Skynet bot will soon take over the world controlling all of Korea's military through mind control.

I remember reading a thread a while ago about an event where they invited a bunch of schools to develop an AI that could play BW the most effectively, and it was pretty awesome. I don't remember what it is anymore :[

BW is so archaic I'm really impressed by anyone making bots that are capable of playing competitevly online. IMO the bots should do builds that require insane micro and multitask to pull off (muta all-in, stim and range MnM TvT, Deep 6) to benefit from the insane micro abilitles that these bots have.
