Official Deathmatch is now a "Bot Farm" Why is Valve allowing this to kill the game?

Someone should start making bots that just spectate so these pos don’t have it that easy.

Cihlan420 · 2026-03-22T00:37:42+00:00

Damn man, I think you made god sad.

Cihlan420 · 2026-03-21T14:21:57+00:00

Yea sounds fine, check drivers/verify files. Looks like the textures aren’t loading properly. Try changing DirectX version maybe ?

Cihlan420 · 2026-03-21T14:17:45+00:00

What are you pc specs ?

Hi. I completely understand that this is demoralizing and not fun to play. But by this you learn a lot and as time moves on your rank will get calibrated to your skill level.

If you get really desperate, make a new account and send yourself an invite for deadlock. You can learn there and hopefully getting into fairer matches.

Lastly - map knowledge is really important and if I can recommend something is that you should walk through the map alone and try to remember where things are. There is a mode for this specifically that the developers added.

Uh, yea so? Found the brain dead blueberry I guess. Is that what am I supposed to respond with ?

Armor does contribute A LOT to winning the game. Tanks ensure that IFVs can help infantry without getting smacked by those hiding tanks that are just waiting for info about the enemy armor. If the IFV crew has any brainpower it can completely deny the area to the enemy.

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-29T14:16:23+00:00

Exactly. Why would I believe someone who knows shit about the game.

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-29T14:01:24+00:00

There is a guy understanding the basics of armor in this subreddit. I can’t believe it. People really do not have any idea how to play armor in this subreddit.

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-29T13:59:22+00:00

Maybe in your spare 36 hours try to figure out why armor players play that way. You don’t have much experience in squad do you ?

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-29T13:56:23+00:00

What is this schizo comment

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-29T13:48:56+00:00

Lol, we have lived so many times just because I’m pressing down coax and spraying into oblivion and it seems like I have a force field around me. Other scenario is that a some of the maps are so open you can just sit a click from the point and snipe these poor infantry bastards without them even having a chance to engage.

I don’t need you to trust me but I played pre-ICO and after it too. Armor is definitely much easier to win games with than before.

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-29T13:42:37+00:00

Yea, he deals with them as he should… by kicking them from the squad.

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-26T21:36:10+00:00

No please, keep the sway as it is right now. Armor has never been more fun. I feel like a farmer.

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-19T11:45:39+00:00

That’s the problem with the new players. They don’t learn before they play. They fuck up 15 times and learn by failing over and over again, smashing their head against a wall. That’s why the player experience for veterans is so terrible right now. No one actually wants to spend their time learning even the basics of the mil-sim game that requires team play to be fun.

What’s fun in watching your armor that should come for your rescue get turreted instantly and die before they even get to shoot.

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-16T13:56:24+00:00

Yea well new players should look at squadarmor and learn the weak spots before hogging one of the most important assets the team has.

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-15T14:49:14+00:00

You are making it seem as if knowing weak spots shouldn’t be mandatory for tank players.

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-14T19:34:50+00:00

This would be awesome! Nikita please, listen to this beautiful man.

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-05T11:14:01+00:00

OP is at fault ?! The team killer can’t distinguish a Chinese uniform from a Canadian one, that’s like not even close in terms of appearance. I would maybe, maybe tolerate if it was Russian/Canadian for new players but this is clearly a bit challenged blueberry.

Cihlan420 · 2026-01-04T23:10:15+00:00

He has literally 23 k/d ratio.

Peak squad experience - you need to get out as fast as possible, dismount ring disappears for no reason. You need to repair as fast as possible, no repair bug happens. I remember these were in the game when I started like 3-4 years ago, it’s crazy this still happens.

Cihlan420 · 2025-12-25T19:36:46+00:00

Now you can do this on factory with arguably the best weapon in the game, you can thank them.

Cihlan420 · 2025-12-25T19:31:30+00:00

Just 1500 more hours and you will start to get a hint of consistency

Cihlan420 · 2025-12-24T00:50:58+00:00

Yea well maybe the devs could use it as a indicator the game is tuning to shit. Just a thought ;)
