Valve, please do something. Fixing the anticheat wouldn’t only fix tf2, it would save many other multiplayer games plagued by cheating, including other Valve games like CS and the upcoming Deadlock.

    It is definitely an arms race between better bots and better anti-bot, but part of that paradigm is that it gets more expensive to participate in the race the faster it gets. If valve applied the acceleration even a little bit, the number of bots would at least temporarily be reduced, which would make the player experience astronomically better. No bots whatsoever is unreasonable, but most pubs being 50% bots or more means they can effectively vote-ban anyone and is untenable

      I don’t know, they all use the same software so it just takes one update to that and the numbers of bots go up again. We’ve seen the same thing happen when valve has actually updated the game to break the bot software.

      Plus, there’s the danger of the oppisite happening. Bots get less obvious, and now it’s nearly impossible for players to identify and vote kick bots.
