These are all great but how can we know if we are not playing against bots? I believe you can create a bot for almost every game in that list and you'll never be able to know if you are really playing against a real person or not...
Simple, you can check for their activity i.e:
- Their joined time to the game
- Their gameplay activity most of them really cannot understand the situation on the game and probably only pass the game and let you win.
This could be used from the platform, due lack of player and only need maybe 1 player to start the game the platform will do it this to make the race started so the player who waiting for the game not cancelled their game because waiting for some player really long. This could be normal and still considered this action from the platform, you know the problem on PVP Game is "lack of player"
But if the bots were from some user, there still need some specific command for the bots to be work not like a dice when you have a simple command line. You cant just really set up the bots with a short command line due to the games against an active player (a real human) means depending on the situation of the game and really cannot read the situation when you used a bot. One of the example game from poker, dhou dhizou, racing on the list thread need to thinking some strategy for the game and cannot using a simple command line. The situation will always be different depending on the situation before the game for a racing game and depending on the situation in-game for a card game.
If you using bots for this kind of game, they only can a simple command-line maybe put the high card they have or pass the game since there is no strong card and you can be lost since the bot could use a strong card early when other people saved it for some specific situation you can be lost at here wasting some money.
The main point, for what's using a bot if you just:
- Have potentially lost some money.
- Playing using a bot like a game with house/banker and not having so much fun at all.
But if you have AI who can really make a different move depending on the situation of the game (in your dream maybe
) then no comment about that's XD.
