Number of Players?
« on: January 01, 2014, 06:57:16 am »
Hey. I have Question.
Why when you load game there is fake info about how many Players currently play Soldat?

Like in picture, it show that there is currently 154 servers and 117 Players, but problem is that it also count Bots and its a bit weird because its not player but Bot...

Problem is that in most servers Bots are deleted if more than 2 Players join game, and greatest amount of this Bots are in just one Zombie server and two "9999 ping" servers made on player PC just for short game with Bots(you can't join them).

Its seems that is nothing, but when you subtract numbers of Bots, there isn't actually 117 Online Players but just 61... Its 52.1% of this fake number.

Did you always count Bots as a "Online Players" or just because you want boost statistics? Don't feel offended I'm just curious...

I agree with you kabuto, that's wrong. Maybe I should make a bugreport on it?, although it's probbably not a bug.

I personally never play on servers where bots are present so it doesn't really affect me. I bet there are others who take it this way.

61 players online sounds so depressing

Arguing with your girlfriend and you don't get a response for a few minutes
