That’s unsurprising, I don’t bother with multiplayer games at all because always getting stomped so bad you don’t even learn how to fucking play isn’t worth the time. One assumes they have to come up with some sort of strategy to keep players like me on a pvp only game.
Rocket league is the only online competitive game worth it anymore for me at least. I stopped for a few years and saw people complain on forums about bots and toxicity but when I came back it was exactly how I left it, and that was before epic bought it.
I do miss the abusive loot chests since I was an adult and like gambling on them but I understand why they needed to go.
One assumes part of the goal there was to give players the dopamine boost of thinking they’re beating someone. Not saying it’s not an underhanded tactic but I can see and understand the motive and, as far as shitty things in the online gaming world go, this one’s probably the most benign.

And that strategy was to allow you to play against bots on purpose and with your knowledge. It has been around for as long as bots have been.
