snapshot Posted December 3, 2016 This was recently posted on the DOOM Reddit, So apparently the 5th Update is coming on December 7th, Bringing more Ranks, Bots, a Free Praetor Armor and a New game mode titled Infernal Run . EDIT : Release notes revealed. Dunno if there's going to be bugfixes or more features on SnapMap, Full Changelog should be revealed after the release of the Update, But at least Bots are coming next week .. 0 Share this post Link to post
watstha Posted December 3, 2016 I wonder if that sweet marine armor will also be available for snapmap. 0 Share this post Link to post
HavoX Posted December 3, 2016 New additions include Bots for multiplayerABOUT FUCKING TIME, THANK GOD Trycon said:I wonder how good the bots will be.I just hope they're smarter than the ones from Q3A... 0 Share this post Link to post
wheresthebeef Posted December 3, 2016 The Doom marine armor is the classic armor and not just the Praetor armor, right? 0 Share this post Link to post
Chezza Posted December 4, 2016 I wonder if bots included into Multiplayer also includes all Snapmap games. Also I am hoping that you can play against bots without having to launch Multiplayer with others. 0 Share this post Link to post

qdash Posted December 4, 2016 Are you kidding? Q3 had impressive bots, especially if compared to the pathbound ones in UT. Good joke! Q3 bots was stupid as hell! How they can be impressive with no strafes?! 0 Share this post Link to post

Reaper and Action Bot were quite good but Q3As have been improved (wasn't the Action Bot developer responsible for the Q3 bot?). UTs were a mess due to their waypoint system. 0 Share this post Link to post
qdash Posted December 4, 2016 igg, bots are simple and stupid fun, but if they not strafing it's special sort of shit. I remember Reaper Bot, it was possibly first normal bots for Q2. Eraser Bot sucks alot, many-many other too. When I started to play Q3A I was impressed only by railgun accuracy of nightmare bots. Waypoints still sucks alot, no strafes, nothing. Especially goddamn strafes - how to play with bots if they walking like complete idiots? UT bots feels alot better because they using strafes. Waypoints sucks everywhere. 0 Share this post Link to post
igg Posted December 4, 2016 NoisM said:UT bots feels alot better because they using strafes. Waypoints sucks everywhere. I don't get your point. Yee, bots are simple and stupid fun. Yee waypoints suck but why do you still favor UTs bots which relied on predefined paths in contrast to Q3As "open world" bots? Just because of strafing? 0 Share this post Link to post
DooM_RO Posted December 4, 2016 I hope Snapmap gets some additions too. It's still really underbaked. 0 Share this post Link to post
MrInternational Posted December 4, 2016 Hooray for bots, and free Praetor Armor thats so rad. I always thought they were gonna charge us for that if they ever released it. Glad I was wrong. 0 Share this post Link to post
Zemini Posted December 5, 2016 Is it just me or do these updates come pretty regularly and without much delay? That is a good thing right? Looking forward to playing against bots. 0 Share this post Link to post
Karakurt Posted December 5, 2016 Every time they release a DLC a free update always come in chain. 0 Share this post Link to post
snapshot Posted December 6, 2016 I Hope the Praetor armor gets added to SnapMap too, And Hopefully we can play against bots offline, Cause i'm sure i won't be playing against bots online (unless we can use them to fill lobbies while waiting) .Zemini said:Is it just me or do these updates come pretty regularly and without much delay? That is a good thing right? Each month actually, Which is a good thing since we don't have to download Huge files each week . 0 Share this post Link to post

Agreed, it would be extremely retarded if the bots option was online only thus defeating the purpose of being able to play the multiplayer solo without an internet connection. 0 Share this post Link to post
Jaxxoon R Posted December 7, 2016 I like the sound of that football mode, wonder how they'll handle the whole catching/throwing mechanic. They're possibly just going to hijack the grenade system for that, but I could always end up being proven wrong. I was always more a fan of the gamemodes that had a longer-term goal than just shootman the most shootmans, like Possession, Warpath, Bloodrush, and Soul Harvest. Shame those tend to be the quickest to die off in terms of playerbase from what I've seen. Guess that's what the bots are for. 0 Share this post Link to post

ArchangelOfHell Posted December 7, 2016 Sounds good Dmguy, glad snapmap is getting more content as well. Bots will fill the void when no ones on overnight I suppose. 0 Share this post Link to post

MrSkeltal Posted December 7, 2016 Oh yes. SnapMap You can now play as the DOOM Marine in Praetor Suit Armor Such a minor thing, but I was wishing this would be included since release. The Snapmap/Multiplayer armour hand models all look rather goofy. 0 Share this post Link to post
