sir you couldint be more untrue I play pve a lot and I mean more then some people and well I can tell you right now I'm most likely more smarter and skilled then most pvp players that have been playing most likely longer then I have bots can do a shit ton for a persons gameplay truth is I train against bots and not players because ai tend to give a untrained design what I mean is they are not as well reliable as players and sometime can take routes that players normaly would never do meaning as short
ai can train you for the unexpected
ive always loved pve as the ai are normal unpredictable and never well like how players are I also use to run a clan on arma 3 till we all moved to other games and the main thing I told my mates keep your eyes open and never leave a blind spot why because the ai trained me with that if I didn't watch my own back I would have died so many times its not funny and well before I did my training with ai I never use to I use to be a Rambo little cod bitch running and gunning and well I never was scared of players why because
1. ai have aimbot meaning pin point death
players do not
2.ai seem to have a dieing issues
players do not
3. ai seem to get into places that players can not aka until you guys fix bugs on arma 3 they go thru buildings
theres so many unexpected things ai can train you for and I mean a lot so really if anything the combat patrol should be seen as training and give you less xp and money then pvp but still get some based on how hard the mission really is
