Had a very frantic botmatch on Heights(Night) Skirmish mode. On the third round, all the bots on my team decided to just stand at the spawn point doing absolutely nothing. The enemy team managed to capture all three points. A few mad attempts to recap B and C end with my team having 0 respawn waves as I go down fighting for C, though nearly my entire team is still alive sitting on their artificial asses back at spawn. I fought hard enough that it left the enemy team with only one wave.
Since all my team was alive doing nothing, and this game gives you the ability to take over bots instead of normal respawning(even if you cannot normally respawn, like now), I realized this gave me several more chances to work with. And since the enemy had all the capture points, they could not gain any more waves than the one they had(unless I retook one and then they took it back - that's how Skirmish works).
First bot I take over, I make it halfway to C, before being forced into a fighting retreat that kills off over half their team before they bring me down(also forcing their last wave to spawn). The next bot, I decide to draw them in by attacking B, which is a large house. It worked. Holy crap, it worked. I pick them off as they enter through the doorways. Bodies are piling up. I think they even tried to assault all at once but slightly borked the timing. Even so, I had B cleared enough to capture it just before several of them storm in the doors around me. I start firing. And bunnyhopping.
When it was all over, I took a moment to check to see if my team was moving. I don't think they were except for maybe one enemy that attacked the spawn being killed by everyone. Then one last enemy comes through the door. I shoot him. "Security Forces have eliminated the Insurgents".
Insurgency. By the way, can someone explain to me the Ambush mode? It's not available for solo play, but the only multiplayer servers I see with people on are only running Ambush.
