I think it would be a great learning tool.
Anything that speeds up q times is awesome
Most players are faceless internet strangers I’ll never meet again and couldn’t care less if they were replaced by ai
They could fill in the gaps during waits
I mean we’ve seen the solo casual megathreads.
And yes, I wholeheartedly agree that this game is meant to be played with your friends and guilds. Or at least to get the most out of it. But some of us don’t have friends. And I work and have an inflexible schedule.
I’d hate to sit there all night trying to get one crew to run one dungeon and probably not get any thing out of it. And if the loot table were far enough down, I wouldn’t interfere with all the elites getting their mythic gear. Leave it at mythic zero.
This is purely a completionist story lore, perspective. That’s how I see it.
This is a godsend I’m glad it is in development. Love to just spam runs on alts doing this even if just normal and heroic.
Assuming it ever comes to fruition and isnt just them testing stuff, and assuming they function with similar limitations to Trusts in FFXIV, i dont really see any downsides.
Will likely only work in normals/heroics, will almost certainly be slower, but could potentially teach basic ‘dungeon’ skills in a less stressful environment, should someone decides to use it.
Hell depending on how well it’s implemented, dungeons could actually be part of leveling storylines where important npcs act as ai party members in dungeons, so you know. Less “Go in here and murder my enemies for me while I sit here and huff glue” sort of thing.
“I was vote kicked by ai for no reason. Blizz do something”
Also fake news
They somehow got it to work for that little ending quest mini dungeon on exiles island leveling place, and for Arathi comp stomp. So I can see them trying to add more stuff like that eventually. Comp Stomp is funnier, than actually fun though. Watching people freak out because some bot manages to cap a flag makes it worth doing
From the looks of it Ai dungeons are a seperate difficulty from regular dungeons.
If i’d hazard a guess i would say this is probably a “story” mode for dungeons.
Very interesting, and a positive change for queue times since the odd quest here and there requires items from Normal/Heroic dungeons
It’s not like it’s that outlandish of an idea, the precedent already exists due to Comp Stomp (human players mixed in with bots)
Just when I thought the players in random queues weren’t stupid enough.
I hope not.
I would think the population count is way worse than what I was thinking.
It works just fine in FFXIV. Then again they are not just random npcs that you party with.
This is freakin’ cool!
you can get a mythic keystone without running anything via the panda ( i think ) npc in valdrakken.
If true, fantastic. They act like bots in LFG anyway. Now you can enjoy playing dungeons with your close friends or even alone without having to pug toxic randos. I really support that.
It works well enough in Final Fantasy XIV, can’t see why it won’t work here.
Obviously, for high-level content, you’re not going to have AI party members as an option.
Oh my goodness, this would be so cute, let me summon you cuties to the dungeon. I want a frost mage, aug evoker, VDH, and disc priest. I think the mage and priest should be gnomes.
“couldN’T care less”
GRAMMAR POLICE! OPEN UP!!! Actually not really grammar, but saying police?
But yeah, most LFG partners ,ight as well be bots
I have mixed feeling on this, is this a trick?
