Battlefield 2042 gets help from AI bots to fill matches

DICE drew the veil of the next addition to the Battlefield series, Battlefield 2042, a couple of weeks ago. In addition to new courses and Levoloution increased to a maximum, a number of game mechanical changes are introduced. These include updates for the Conquest game mode, recast soldier classes and a substantial increase in the number of players per course, which goes from 64 to 128.

► Battlefield 2042 is official – launched on October 22, 2021

To balance the latter new bots are also introduced with artificial intelligence (AI). These will partly help to fill up teams if there is a shortage of players in a session for both Conquest and Breakthrough, but also act as opponents in other game modes.

Also new is the introduction of AI Soldiers (Artificial Intelligence) to the series. As a multiplayer-only experience, it’s important for us to let you play Battlefield 2042 when and how you want. Here is what that looks like in the All-Out Warfare experience of Conquest and Breakthrough:

• Multiplayer – AI soldiers are used for server-filling capabilities, ensuring your matches remain full, no matter your location.

• Co-Op – Allows you to play together with friends, against AI soldiers.

• Solo – If you wish to perfect your skills for multiplayer, you can even play alone against AI soldiers.

The idea behind the AI ​​bottoms, in addition to balancing the game, is to make it possible to play in as well co-opmode or all by yourself. The majority of previous major Battlefield titles have included a single-player campaign, which also doubled as an introduction for new players. Battlefield 2042 does not receive such a promotion, but instead players can practice against the AI ​​bottoms. It should also be possible to increase the level in that way, which previous single-player modes have not contributed to.

Battlefield 2042 launches on October 22 and available to pre-book for PC / Windows, Playstation 5, Xbox Series X / S, Playstation 4 and Xbox One.
