WhenWarzone Mobilerolled out its major update on April 2, alongsideproblems faced by Android userstrying to play the game, one of the other main issues tackled was matchmaking times and player difficulty.
Accordingto the official post, the game’s April 2 update adjusted matchmaking and other levers “to improve the level of difficulty for new players.”
However, since the Season 3 update, players have become frustrated as their lobbies are filled with bots. While some bots might have been visible previous to the update, the current number is so high that some players claim they’re queuing into lobbies filled entirely by bots.
“I was literally the only real player amongst bots against a team that had like three real players…” one fan said,venting their frustrations on Reddit.
Another playershared a similar experience in a separate threaddiscussing the issue. They said, “I loved playing the MP mode, but now there are always 2-3 bots per team.”
“Who else thinks the game has more Bots than actual real players since the update?” was the title ofyet another threadon the subreddit regarding the current state of the lobbies.
