Will anything ever be done to combat farming bots?
Public DM, AR, and casual lobbies have become unplayable. There are now more bots with aim and weird robotic movement than actual human players. Previously, we were able to kick these bots out and eventually fill the lobby with real players. Now we can’t even vote them out because there are more bots than humans, so the vote never reaches enough support.
I’m not even talking about improving VAC, which has already been a hot topic for a long time. Valve simply needs to remove these bots.
Right now, casual modes and matchmaking sessions are filled with cheaters, making the game practically unplayable. Will any effort be made to address this and make the game enjoyable again?
