Games like halo and MW2 have multiplayer mostly built on online but split screen can be just as fun if you have a good amount of players, and it would be fun to have an 18 man rust ffa or play search and destroy with 3 other people and a bunch of bots for filler.

IMO in a game like MW2 that would> the campaign which was not that good.

I've always been a big fan of bots in games. I used to have a blast playing Timesplitters with bots, and I think there is room in the market for bots in multiplayer games. Unfortunately, I think I'm in a very small minority, and because of that, developers don't really do it any more. :(

Yea for a bit when I didn't have gold I would play Gears 2 mp w/ bots on insane. It made me better at the game and I sometimes forgot I was playing offline.

yeah i hate the fact that most of the best fps games don't have bots. Yeah your gonna spend most of your time online but it is nice to be able to play a full private game with a few friends I too was addicted to time splitters and spent many hours playing it but that was before the explosion of online so i guess they dont care anymore.

XIII was one of the worst games i ever played...but they had bots so it still had me playing it for hours. It's nice having bots when u dont wanna deal with ppl's s*** online lol. and it sucks trying to play deathmatch with just 2-4 friends on split screen

Timesplitters made a perfect use of the bots, i never had so much fun in my entire life when i used to play it. If a 4 ever comes to exist i hope they keep the bots.

They should especially have bots if the game has multiplayer achievements. It would've benefited multiplayer only games like Shadowrun.

Quoting myself and adding the following:

The mapmaker made TS even funner to play with bots, you never had to cope up with the routine of playing through the same levels, over and over. FPS should have mapmaker more often even if they could be extremely simple like, once again, TS mapmaker.

EDIT: I agree with the above poster.

I love playing against bots. It presents a great way to hone your skills in certain game types before heading online or playing with other players, as well as being a great way of playing some coop.
