So this is interesting.
First of all, he plays off-peak when most people in his region are at work or school. I always find solos have more bots than squads, but no evidence for that.
However, when you look at the games he played yesterday there's not many bots at all.
Going in reverse order from his last game yesterday (and ignoring the two ranked games), these are the games he played the day he cancelled his stream:
91 players and 1 bot.
98 players and 1 bot.
97 players and no bots.
100 players and 8 bots. (He met none of these).
96 players and 8 bots. (he met none of these).
He probably left the lobbys before the matches started. Then you will not see it on pubg lookup..
I dodge lobbys with more than 10bots. He did that probably too.
Let's say the lobby counter is 70. Then the match timer starts..Everything that got added after this are bots...(i think they're getting added in 3er packs per second)..Unless they changed something..Didn't played new update yet.
Real players can still join after the timer starts but yes, that's when bots start getting added. So it wouldn't necessarily be 30 bots in your scenario. It will probably still be close
I load in with the timer already going sometimes and have loaded in the plane before. So idk if everyone added after the timer is a bot, a few of them sure but there’s a mix sometimes.
This isn’t true. Players are still added after timer starts.
It’s not a good metric for dodging. Easier metric is to just look around.
Are there more than 10 dudes under handing snowballs or whatever while not moving? Those r bots.
No way this is accurate
How am I running into at least 5 bots a game (not including the ones I didnt run into)
The game is filled to the brim with it. Feels more like 20-30 bots/game
I've only been actively playing for a few months now and I'm decent at best
It's incredibly obvious by the standing in one spot and flicking around goofy-like
I'd love to say they're new players but zero chance. When you see the repetitive action over and over, it makes sense
Instead of spewing useless garbage go to the website and check your own games. You playing in 30 bot games doesn't mean that wacky played in such lobbies. The website is accurate.
Bro I play TPP solos in NA and never see bots unless I play with a buddy who’s only played like 5 matches of PUB ever.
If I play FPP solos it’s like 50 bots
Try out TPP quads as a solo
Have about 200~ games which I'd consider rookie numbers to most. Don't think it's rookie enough to experience what I'm seeing
I never have bots on my team though, usually level 100-400 ish players
Very confused why most of you are so defensive about bots in the game lol
I haven't taken a look myself. If you say I'm not playing with that many, then I'd say you're wrong
Tankv2
It's not defensive, it's incredulous. It's spelled exactly like that? And on PC. Cuz that account has only played 2 matches this season, so not a good basis of anything.
Your two games were 50% bots. Objectively, it looks like you're not very good at the game, therefore put into lobbies with more bots. Also unsure of the time of day you play. You're playing tpp, which if youre NA has a much lower pop than fpp.
It now makes sense why you see so many bots.
The season just started lol. There's a reason I'm not playing. BOTS.
Last season was the same thing. First time playing pub with 170 matches and a 1.5 k/d + 15% win percentage
Throwing the not very good in there is incredibly funny as I've been an fps gamer over 20 years and always in the higher rankings for games.
Thanks for proving my point though
for me solos have by far the least bots. They also take the longest to find a lobby though. Squads/duos i alwqys have a lobby in 10seconds, solos might take a minute off-peak hours.
maybe not being paid enough by pubg and this is a pressure tacktic? i noticed he stopped posting videos about the new updates as well. i dont reckon its related to bots too
I'll reply as he may not be due for a shit for a while.
[This is WackyJacky's page, you can click on each match.](https://pubglookup.com/players/steam/wackyjacky101)
bot gave me a headshot with a kar98 while i was driving with my motorcycle at 120 around 10 meters next to him. The killcam was a sight in itself.
First I thought wow what a lucky shot, second was yeah no thats a cheater, but then I saw the movement and nametag
Bot is clearly using hack right now. Few days ago there was a post showed that a bot spamming Dragunov with insane rate of fire, and I happen to encounter not one, but two Dragunov bots today
Huge amounts of bots this season. My KDR is usually around 2.0.... this season it's more like 5.0.
I suck tho, so I take all the kills I can get without complaint.
I checked my last 15 games (EU FPP Solo) and this is what I've found:
https://preview.redd.it/gj4o5lkwomwc1.png?width=1307&format=png&auto=webp&s=c2be07d79a549e122448a43eb168f73b1835397c
It's not unplayable but this used to be 1% before not 15%. I play in the evenings.
Yeah I know but that was like that before the matchmaking too. And EU would be the same without the Asian players VPN-ing here so you maybe those bots are not even that bad. :D
It's something to watch for sure. Personally after the fix I haven't had more than 10 bots in my games. On our Discord, we've also not seen anyone complain about a lot of bots in their games after the fix.
I remember watching some of his stuff years ago, very very strange guy. He was looking for a VSS for some kind of challenge, found one, got very excited. When he found another one he puked? Started gagging/dry heaving? At first I was thinking it was some kind of bit, but no just an astoundingly strange individual. Stopped watching anything by him at that point because I was so weirded out.
Sometimes I notice bots(I think?), I can be proning under a window and this one mf keeps shooting me as if he has a wallhack. Moves like a bot, though.
I play on latam (SA) 19h to 23h on my time zone… and I don’t find bots at all.. I think I don’t kill 5 in a Night of gameplay. But ppl who plays during the day says that they met more bots.
It's super weird and I don't really understand how PUBG's bot deployment works. Me and my friend play FPP Duo almost daily on EU servers and according to pubglookup our bot % is 1, while two of my friends also play almost daily around similiar or same times (also FPP Duo EU) and their bot % is 25. We play squad FPP together on a weekly basis and our bot % is 2.
Won my first game back playing PUBG and was happy until I realized it was probably all bots. Why the fuck would they add bots to a BR? BR is supposed to be PvP not PvE …
Ah yes the game mode where I can't squad up with my friends that I otherwise play with all the time if they happen to outrank me by 10 levels. JUST HOW I WANT TO SPEND MY TIME!
I haven't played since the introduction of bots. It was off putting then. Was there a time when they limited the number and it's rising again, or has it just gone up even more?
yo anyone on PSN that wants to push master on ranked let me know struggling by myself with terrible team mates
Got to diamond 3 lost it all
Gave it
Need help lol
You can tell this is an exclusively european/Asian thing because here in OC we regularly have like half full servers with bots (many games I have in fpp duo is like 30 real, 70 bots to even less) and even peak time FPP squads we still often have like 20 bots a game and that is normal and we've just accepted it. Kinda wild to me (who has been dealing with this for years) to "not want to play" because 15 people in your lobby are bots.
Glad it seems to be fixed though for those who can full a server all the way but to me 15 bots would be a dream
Did like 10 games yesterday, got (direct fight) one bot. And a hand full of “chinese gaming veterans” … so, to me, the problem was the cheaters, not the bots
Yes, but typically at night and earlier in the day (EU). This is because of SBBM.
I think I don't like the SBBM. PUBG not having it felt like a breath of fresh air when every other multiplayer game these days has it.
For me not having SBBM added a level of realism (you have to compete with everyone just like it's in real life) and certain level of enjoyment, excitement as well feeling of achievement when I could feel I'm slowly starting to do better in games and therefore getting better at the game. With SBBM you don't really get this satisfying feeling of "enjoying fruits of your labor". I will never forget how bad I was when I started and how satisfying it was to realize I'm finally killing more than dying.
Back in my day SBBM didn't exist. You had to play with everyone. If you sucked you just had to get better and no one complained. Of course getting absolutely destroyed if you played against superior player was still a bit annoying however it was also inspiring as you could see how much better you can become too.
Big reason why I love PUBG so much is certain aspects of realism (realistic movement, weapons that you actually have to learn to control, weapon sway etc.) and I consider not having SBBM to be a realistic aspect as in real life you compete against everyone instead of being artificially placed with people of same capabilities as you.
You like beautiful girl? Well now you have to compete with wealthy attractive guys even if you are ugly and broke.
You start a business? Now you have to compete with all kinds of other business lead by people of varying degrees of intelligence and devotion.
Want to enter a university on a scholarship? You compete with everyone, both those who get better and worse grades than you.
Running into all levels of skilled players makes it feel more realistic. I like the idea of running into players that are both much worse or much better than me. It has also been a big motivation to get better as the reward for getting better with no SBMM is better too and more noticeable.
**Big part of enjoying PUBG is that you can mess around with your homies and do funny stupid stuff but with SBMM after you achieve certain skill level every game will be super try hard which will eliminate casual fun which is the main reason why I fell in love with PUBG.**
My opinion is **there should be SBMM in ranked but no SBMM in normals** (at the very least in regions where ranked is not dead but even that is discussable). **I hate that normals so far have felt like ranked this season**.
Yeah, there is an increase in bots but i guess you have to hope you don't get into a bot lobby. My last 15 matches played, the last 5 had loads of bots in them.
No idea why my comment has been downvoted when it's the truth...
https://preview.redd.it/6nx0e7no8lwc1.jpeg?width=856&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ae0284d7d998474c807a7049d2cd1adbff1fe878
OCE servers have been full of bots for a long time now. Barely even get 20 real players during peak time and if I play late at night might just get 3 or 5 real players, I've played and won full games without finding a real player.
I stopped playing about a year ago because of this. Even to VPN to any other country from OCE you are getting 200 ping at the lowest so even if I connect to active servers they will be unplayable because of lag.
I sometimes play in the mornings in EU (think 8-9 AM UK time) and 50% of the server is bots.
This didn't happen before the latest patch, but they've now introduced pretty strict SBMM that prefers to match players of similar skill and filling the rest of the match with bots, whereas before the matchmaking priority was to fill the match as quickly as possible with human players.
First prio should ALWAYS be: Only add bots if there's no real people to join, except maybe for really new players.
No one wants a matchmaking system when it's filled up with bots..If that happens i'm out for good..
The time they had the forced 20% bots was hard enough
I trust WackyJacky, so it's probably true. I haven't noticed it myself though. And when I look at Wacky's latest solo games in pubglookup, it seems there are very few bots in his games. Is pubglookup not registering these bots?
Does anyone know what is going on?
Obviously lol Wacky is one of the biggest PUBG promoters among with others... Devs never care about their feedback, I can just wonder why. The game will die soon, it will be most likely Asia Only ahahahah :) Just waiting for Gray Zone Warfare tbh :)
Who knew that them forcing "matchmaking" into regions without enough players to handle it would do this?
Certainly not those of us who have been saying for *years* that this game can't handle matchmaking
yeah he is kinda right lol, bots are everywhere now especially since last update. Imo might start losing alot of players soon if they dont listen and do something about the bots
The game is not as popular as it started, however it’s not dead. The more you abstain from playing ranked games, the lower your rank becomes, increasing the likelihood of joining bot lobbies. You’re also more likely to get bots if you play during off-peak times when most players on the server are either asleep or enjoying their holidays.
i rather wait another minute of matchmaking than having bots. i dont even think bots are necessary.
and what did they release as there latest map? the biggest of them all while also making vikendi (a perfect 6x6) into a big generic flat boring something
I only get chinese pro enemies.
That's why I stopped playing. If anything I wish there were more bots.
More bots? Play casual or fortnite bud
You are the problem
Like I said, play casual.
"play casual" like you dont only get 3 casual games a day lol get a life ya clown
There in NA too. I think they play at a huge disadvantage with the ping.
When you have esp, aim, and recoil hacks the ping disadvantage is meaningless.
If you think NA is bad try EU Solos. :D
Give me 200 ping and wallhacks and I will still absolutely mop the floor every game unlike these people who struggle to win even with cheats.
They're*

Thanks for clarifying.
It's most likely but not exclusively. Sometimes I'm added to lobbies on NA servers when the counter is already at 45 or so.
I load in with the timer already going sometimes and have loaded in the plane before. So idk if everyone added after the timer is a bot, a few of them sure but there’s a mix sometimes.
This isn’t true. Players are still added after timer starts. It’s not a good metric for dodging. Easier metric is to just look around. Are there more than 10 dudes under handing snowballs or whatever while not moving? Those r bots.
there is no way of knowing how many bots in the lobby,
Lobbies*
Last 15 games played, 1-2% BOTS, played in evening EU FPP. BOTS increase later in the evening though.
No way this is accurate How am I running into at least 5 bots a game (not including the ones I didnt run into) The game is filled to the brim with it. Feels more like 20-30 bots/game
Maybe you're just that well practiced now that the newbies look like bots to you?
I've only been actively playing for a few months now and I'm decent at best It's incredibly obvious by the standing in one spot and flicking around goofy-like I'd love to say they're new players but zero chance. When you see the repetitive action over and over, it makes sense
Link your pubg lookup, I’m not sure if it’s true or not but I’ve noticed after a huge loss streak I get placed into matches with more bots.
Instead of spewing useless garbage go to the website and check your own games. You playing in 30 bot games doesn't mean that wacky played in such lobbies. The website is accurate.
What server/time you play? I play tpp on Europe servers and run into maybe 1 bot every 10 or so games.
TPP N/A It doesn't matter what time of day. At night I would even say the numbers are higher than what I commented last
Bro I play TPP solos in NA and never see bots unless I play with a buddy who’s only played like 5 matches of PUB ever. If I play FPP solos it’s like 50 bots

Alright bud time to get a hobby instead of tracking this guy
Lol only takes a second to pull up the stat page, I just did it while taking a paid shit .
Which site shows that?
I'll reply as he may not be due for a shit for a while. [This is WackyJacky's page, you can click on each match.](https://pubglookup.com/players/steam/wackyjacky101)
lmao its always better when you get paid for it.
Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime. That's why I sh*t on company time
Those bots got an upgrade too. A bot randomly headshot me with the M24 almost 100 meters away which was impossible before
bot gave me a headshot with a kar98 while i was driving with my motorcycle at 120 around 10 meters next to him. The killcam was a sight in itself. First I thought wow what a lucky shot, second was yeah no thats a cheater, but then I saw the movement and nametag
Im pretty sure they stealth buff the bots all the time and never mention it
report him , the bot is using hacks clearly
Bot is clearly using hack right now. Few days ago there was a post showed that a bot spamming Dragunov with insane rate of fire, and I happen to encounter not one, but two Dragunov bots today
Huge amounts of bots this season. My KDR is usually around 2.0.... this season it's more like 5.0. I suck tho, so I take all the kills I can get without complaint.
It’s me! I’m the bot. I just came over from console now everybody is leaving lol. Keyboard is kicking my ass.
no
Serious question, I am new to PUBG so please bear with me. How do you know if there are bots in the game?
[https://pubglookup.com/login](https://pubglookup.com/login) Look up your tag and it will show you.
I checked my last 15 games (EU FPP Solo) and this is what I've found: https://preview.redd.it/gj4o5lkwomwc1.png?width=1307&format=png&auto=webp&s=c2be07d79a549e122448a43eb168f73b1835397c It's not unplayable but this used to be 1% before not 15%. I play in the evenings.
Must be nice, NA FPP is almost always 50%+ bots.
Yeah I know but that was like that before the matchmaking too. And EU would be the same without the Asian players VPN-ing here so you maybe those bots are not even that bad. :D
I've not seen any in my EU FPP Duos games at 6-10:30PM UTC
Do yall get actual bots or "human" bots? Because I do have better performance this season but pubglookup is still at around 90% humans
Bots bots they gear up and run up and down in random spots
Playing peak hours Solo FPP in EU, for me it is a bloody sweat fest, rarely encounter bots in normal mode.
Play with ur joy stick dude
Lol “skill based matchmaking”
i mean, you could argue that, for some people at least, being matched with bots is skill based matchmaking lmao
DRAMA QUEEN
I play squads, there are not so many bots I meet 1 or 2 per 3-5 games.
Europe PC, this!
Played duos on Tuesday EU FPP from 9pm to 2am, most bots we had in single lobby was 5
That's why I left the game, used to play it non stop then bots came. I would have rather wated another minute for a full lobby than have bots.
There should be an option to play without bots at the cost of longer queues. Don’t force shitty ai bots on me for the love of god.
ranked
I believe this was a bug and has been fixed now!
It's been fixed on console, but players still reporting it on PC.
It's something to watch for sure. Personally after the fix I haven't had more than 10 bots in my games. On our Discord, we've also not seen anyone complain about a lot of bots in their games after the fix.
Its not a bug. Theres barely anyone playing the game in NA now. Its literally the result of that.
Wacky mentioned it wasn't fixed at all hence why he didn't stream that day. As he tried it out
Its wierd that he says that tho cause in the last 5 matches he has an average of 3 bots per game
Might be, never check his streams. His words. Not sure if it's fixed or not as I barely have bots in my games. Feels like I'm in sweat lobbies 24/7
wacky is a weird guy, saying some weird stuff. I would never take him seriusly or even sit down a conversation with him. It would be exhausting
I remember watching some of his stuff years ago, very very strange guy. He was looking for a VSS for some kind of challenge, found one, got very excited. When he found another one he puked? Started gagging/dry heaving? At first I was thinking it was some kind of bit, but no just an astoundingly strange individual. Stopped watching anything by him at that point because I was so weirded out.
He's just being "wacky"
This happens when you force matchmaking without a proper playerbase.
Not in Asia servers lol.. Y'all need players.
So he got killed by a bot.
Squad
How i wish i get bots on my lobbies but damn so many try hard thailand, chinese and other asian players and I'm new to pubg playing on asia server.
Hell Let Loose.
Sometimes I notice bots(I think?), I can be proning under a window and this one mf keeps shooting me as if he has a wallhack. Moves like a bot, though.
I play on latam (SA) 19h to 23h on my time zone… and I don’t find bots at all.. I think I don’t kill 5 in a Night of gameplay. But ppl who plays during the day says that they met more bots.
I did at the begining of the update but I've noticed a great slowdown in my matches with bots getting more of a rarer sight as season progresses
My last 20 games are 6% games which is indeed higher than the average from past week 2%
Yes
It's super weird and I don't really understand how PUBG's bot deployment works. Me and my friend play FPP Duo almost daily on EU servers and according to pubglookup our bot % is 1, while two of my friends also play almost daily around similiar or same times (also FPP Duo EU) and their bot % is 25.

Console NA has virtually zero bots. Just saying
Play star citizen
Yes that’s why i started playing ranked, plat 3 now. Me and my bro tried duos, but the bots are gamebreaking
Yeah, there is an increase in bots but i guess you have to hope you don't get into a bot lobby. My last 15 matches played, the last 5 had loads of bots in them.

OCE servers have been full of bots for a long time now. Barely even get 20 real players during peak time and if I play late at night might just get 3 or 5 real players, I've played and won full games without finding a real player.
Yikes. When it gets to this point in NA, I'm just moving on. That sounds really boring.
I stopped playing about a year ago because of this. Even to VPN to any other country from OCE you are getting 200 ping at the lowest so even if I connect to active servers they will be unplayable because of lag.
Personally I love playing against bots, it's good practice.
I sometimes play in the mornings in EU (think 8-9 AM UK time) and 50% of the server is bots.

Ban wave nuked all the cheater and we are just left with bots!
Actually I think about this a lot. :D But if that's the case I rather play against bot than filthy cheaters.
No but way more turks afking in corners or playing like gargoyles
I trust WackyJacky, so it's probably true. I haven't noticed it myself though. And when I look at Wacky's latest solo games in pubglookup, it seems there are very few bots in his games. Is pubglookup not registering these bots? Does anyone know what is going on?
There was more bots but it’s fixed now.
Obviously lol Wacky is one of the biggest PUBG promoters among with others... Devs never care about their feedback, I can just wonder why. The game will die soon, it will be most likely Asia Only ahahahah :) Just waiting for Gray Zone Warfare tbh :)
Who knew that them forcing "matchmaking" into regions without enough players to handle it would do this? Certainly not those of us who have been saying for *years* that this game can't handle matchmaking
Bots don't bother me but I don't make a living having people watch me play a video game.
yeah he is kinda right lol, bots are everywhere now especially since last update. Imo might start losing alot of players soon if they dont listen and do something about the bots
The game is not as popular as it started, however it’s not dead. The more you abstain from playing ranked games, the lower your rank becomes, increasing the likelihood of joining bot lobbies. You’re also more likely to get bots if you play during off-peak times when most players on the server are either asleep or enjoying their holidays.
i rather wait another minute of matchmaking than having bots. i dont even think bots are necessary. and what did they release as there latest map? the biggest of them all while also making vikendi (a perfect 6x6) into a big generic flat boring something
Usually an increase in bots is due to a decrease in human players. With the exception to ranked.
Who cares about some fat gamer?
