Apparently, they\u2019re getting \u201ctoxic\u201d with streamers by shooting bodies and teabagging. Originally scheduled for October 22, 2021, EA have pushed Battlefield 2042\u2019s release date back to November 19. And that might not even be far enough, as early Beta impressions called the game \u201ca bit of a nightmare.\u201d But, aside from bugs and visual issues, you know what else is a nightmare in BF2042? The devilish bots. With each lobby seemingly filled with AI players, some streamers have been surprised by their run-ins. As JGOD couldn\u2019t help but notice, these bots don\u2019t seem to follow the \u201cThree Laws of Robotics.\u201d Battlefield 2042 bots get toxic with streamers Battlefield 2042 has bots in the Beta and they are Very Toxic \ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd23#BattlefieldBeta pic.twitter.com\/rrNAxddFyZ \u2014 James \u2013 JGOD (@JGODYT) October 6, 2021 The first law of robotics is a simple one: \u201cA robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.\u201d Unfortunately, not only do BF\u2019s robotic characters harm human players \u2014 they add some spice to it. As seen in JGOD\u2019s clip, these bots will not only kill you, they\u2019ll also keep shooting your body or even toss in a teabag. Drama broke out in the CoD Mobile scene after a pro team was disqualified from a $20,000 tournament for &#8220;&#8221;shooting bodies.&#8221;&#8221; \ud83e\udd26\u2642\ufe0f Imagine if this was a thing in the CDL\u2026? \u2013 https:\/\/t.co\/El8eFYGtRA pic.twitter.com\/bEkGnML73E \u2014 Dexerto Esports (@DexertoEsports) May 22, 2021 While likely unintended to be \u201cvery toxic,\u201d as JGOD describes them, it\u2019s still pretty funny. In the past, professional CoD teams have been disqualified for shooting bodies, so we\u2019re talking about dangerous territory here. If you\u2019re excited to jump into the Battlefield Open Beta, you should definitely still do so. But remember, if you get killed and hit with some BM (bad manners), don\u2019t get tilted. It could just be an innocent bot. At the time of writing, EA haven\u2019t responded to their AI\u2019s actions. And, on behalf of the BF community, we hope they don\u2019t patch the AI behavior. It\u2019s much funnier this way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Battlefield 2042\u2019s Beta bots are being incredibly \u201ctoxic\u201d to streamers EA DICEBattlefield 2042\u2019s Open Beta is underway and, despite some issues, its AI bots are very realistic.
