We waited 2 years, how many do you think they need?

What I read here is… yes.

EXACTLY  
Their problems are:

- they use worst weapons of the game… who use here a catachan sword??? who use a headhunter? answer is… the bots.
- they have generic build. You don’t get synergies like in a real team and various talents that can make a run easy

The solution: let us use our bots. VT2 has it. A mod permits it in Darktide solo mod, so that’s possible. Put a revolver / boltgun / IAG + Combat axe to your bots, and the game become more easy than with players that rush…

Of course, there are other problems. They can’t carry anything. They could allow us to transfert a book to the bots.  
They don’t know how to use heavy hit on melee weapons… here I don’t know if it is possible to make them enough smart for this…

PS: yes we can see player using a catachan sword or a headhunter, or a lasgun MK IV (the worst)… but less than player using CA, DS IAG columnus, revolver or Boltgun
