1.1 - nice
this is great news as long as they are even half decent, I remember playing counter strike against bots for many hours when I didnt have any connection and they were pretty good, sometimes a bit too good but always good fun.

More games should include bots to help fill out player counts. Bravo! seems like killzones MP wont be a half assed job at all.

this will be great for practice! I really wished for Warhawk to have bots too! I hate the fact that I learned Warhawk and how to actually 'play'(surviving) in Warhawk the hard way! those experts in Warhawk are one hell of unforgiving cold-blooded demons! I was seriuosly considering to stop playing after only several sessions, where I was pwned to extinction in every session! I was thinking, how the hell do a private soldier with a hand gun going head-to-head with a fvking warfighter that actually stalking you like a GPS satellite?? ahh...how I love to do exactly just that right now!(^3^)

back to the topic, KZ2 will be awesome and I'm looking forward to play it comes february 09!

Killzone 2 will be in Killzone 2? You'd kind of hope so really.

YES! YES! YES! Games with bots tend to be awesome! I mean, Games like the UT series were amazing with bots. I actually play more instant action games in UT3 than I do online. Coo1!

I'll have what he's having.

I love bots. Bot rock. Especially with this level of AI.

I always wanted bots in Halo, but it never delivered. I guess the AI was to stupid, they are pretty simple creatures.

Out of all the good things I've heard about this game, this is the best thing yet.

10.2 - Halo AI is epicly bad.
The only thing that remotely makes up for the terrible singleplayer is the ability to play through it with 3 of your friends, all drunk off your asses, and the ability to go online with the same 3 friends directly thereafter to get owned by some 12 year olds screaming expletives.

now i can play spit screen with my buddies and play with bots (i hope)
it will be more kick ass

11.1 - Yes
COD4 splitscreen was awesome, the only thing lacking was bots!!

Killzone 1's bots were pretty good. They actually adapted to your strategies. Sometimes I thought they were real people.

Anyways, hopefully Killzone 2 has 4 player splitscreen offline. Better yet, 4 player splitscreen online would totally own any other game out there.

If this title lives up to the hype then gamers lucky enough to own a PS3 will be in gaming heaven next year.

15 - really good actually
They are best for those gamers that really are not that good online, like this they can just put the bots on easy ans still get to experience the multiplayer maps and game modes. Also good for just learning maps or game modes before going online and not knowing what do do.

HELL TO THE YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS SSSSS

I'm SOLDDDD!!

I loveee bots, if i don't wanna play online......don't have to. WOO!!

MY PREDICTIONS:

1. Co-op Play is IN (because of the buddy system they say is always with you, they could easily replace that a human player if they want to, look for yourselves in every video there is another NPC with him that always goes with the player)

2. Split Screen Co-op (same as above)

3. Either Split Screen or 4 Player multiplayer (probably not, but hey who knows!)

4. DLC (maybe...)

Damnn this is good news! Hardly any games have bots now......this is awesome!

(bubbles/agrees/replies if you agree with my co-op prediction, i wanna see what you all think)

Hey, I'm a KZ_VIP over at the PS3 forums and Killzone.com so hopefully I can help you out a bit. ;)

-There will be no co-op shipping with the game on release but probably it will be added later. It is said that Guerrilla are "big fans" of co-op and it was featured in Killzone: Liberation.
-I believe there will be split-screen (only offline though) and I doubt it'll be 4 player, probably only 2.
-DLC has already been confirmed by the QA Manager, Seb Downey. Hopefully it'll be free like the free episodic content they did with Killzone: Liberation, but not sure on that yet.

If anyone has any questions you can ask over at the PS3 forums or over at Killzone.com, Seb Downey (motherh) posts at both fairly often. You can also ask him questions directly at Killzone.com in the "Ask a Dev" thread. He's off at Leipzig though at the moment so you'll have to give him some time if you wanna get a hold of him. ;)

24.1 - except for
shooters like resistance

but for shooters like UT3, Killzone 2 etc. It's perfect.

I reckon Team Fortress 2 should have had bots like Counter Strike does.

26 - Personally, bots and split screen are no big deal to me
It's great they put those in, but nowadays if you think about it they're sorta pointless.

Playing split screen is negated by simply playing online. Plus having to share a screen irritates the hell out of me. People get to cheat and look at each other screen. And it doesn't matter how big your T.V. is, it's still a distraction.

And Bots are also negated by online play. Real players are better than bots anyday.

But this is all my personal opinion though. And still I guess it's good they included these features for those that would have nitpicked for things to complain about
