ok, after playing around and adding bots in ESF when I first got it, I found that the akimbot bots couldn't touch me EVER. I dont' know where to set difficulty either, so i just used various techniques to kill them instantly. the only damage inflicted to me was when I accidentally fell. I even got into a power struggle against a trunks bot using the Gatting, or whatever Gun for vegeta, not even full power, and wasted him easily. Anyway, if there is a way to make them better, I'd be glad to hear it. Peace.

Unfortuneately there isn't teams, so you can't even have them gang up against you. A few ideas to make them tougher:

-set botskill to 5 (hit "botskill 5" in console, I think)
-create waypoints all over the map: if you don't do this they wander randomly and only attack you if you come close; building waypoints gives them greater ability to move & target people
-don't "snipe" at them or move far away, get right in their face; they suck at hitting far away targets
-don't use any disk attacks, especially Frieza/Cell disks: they totally kill sluggish bots

Normally I can beat the bots using about any attack exclusively, except Ki blasts and Melee (and with Ki Blasts I only don't win if it's a FFA, and I can still place decently!). And I'm not a great player, either (I'd say a bit above average).

I would like to get some bots because the ESF servers I always have to reconnect to it because of the connection problems.:cry:
