What's so funny? It's the grammatically correct way to say it. You don't say "smarter than us".....

Lol I remember when I had a bot as a gunner in a chopper and he got so many fucking kills, something like 90 - 0 and he beat my score and I was like "OMFG THATS BULLSHIT" and he was like "Enemy infantry spotted"

Uh, there are many more actual grammar mistakes made by the original poster than the one you think is a mistake:

Lookey here!

Today, I made some changings [should be: “changes”] on [should be: “to”] the video settings, and i [capitalize; as in: “I”] decide [should be: “decided”] to play a singe [spelled: "single"] player match to test this [should be: “these”] settings. I played the [unnecessary remove: “the”] Gulf of Oman on Expert, the [replace “, the” with the conjunction “and”] the results realy [spelled with two L’s; “really”; though “truly” would have been a more appropriate word choice]  supprised [ spelled: “surprised” ] me.

Anyway. . . the one thing that is fine - is the final sentence: “The bots are smarter than we. Q.E.D.”

"Smarter than we" - is fine; although technically incorrect according to those that suffer from conceptual orthodoxy in terms of the English language (though I doubt you’re thinking is even that sophisticated; or in other words; I doubt your error in thinking to be wrong in that sophisticated of a way).

It's more a subtle matter of diction (inferred style here) - not grammar (as word usage changes over time; see the O.E.D. [the Oxford English Dictionary] for details) - and "YES" the modern American vernacular usage would be "smarter than us," but that is not an official stamp that such is actually incorrect.

"Smarter than we" sounds more old world English in usage - even older sounding would be "smarter than thou art."

And when combined with the Q.E.D., an abbr. for the Latin "quod erat demonstrandum," maybe you would have understood the sense of the usage.

Bots work together to achieve a flag capture. They will actually fire at enemy along the way.
This is more than most of the human players ever do. Hence bots are better at teamwork.

Bots have difficulty settings so their accuracy when they fire can be changed. At Expert level they almost never miss and the only factor that makes them miss is the deviation of the gun. Hence they don't go hyper and spray erratically. The bots are more accurate than human players.

Outside both those points the bots are nothing more than mindless logrithmic drones without any sort of randomness or human intuition. So they suck in every other aspect. Including changing their minds and or realizing enemy strategy and preempting those strategies.

Although most human players are too blind and stupid to realize most strategies also so I guess the general public of players are the same as bots in the respect.

On most servers I wish I had bots on my side. At least then they would FOLLOW orders and actually try to CAPTURE flags with me instead of doing whatever the fuck they want to do.

i love nazis too

OMFG!!!

Firstly did everyone who read this thread understand what the user was saying?
wait just listening...
yep that was quite deafening. A resounding yes!
Secondly is there anyone so anal out there to be bothered by any spelling or grammatical errors in the post.
two seconds...
yep just a small wind and a tumble weed rolling by, oh yes there was a little mouse squeaking yes me(topal63).
Prick

You my un-friend are atypical to say the least. . .

My comment was directed not at the original poster (whom I don't agree with, to me bots a scripted idiots effective in AA for sure but idiotic nonetheless, and he, the original poster is entitled to his opinion). . . My post was specifically directed at the inane commenting from the other poster (about grammar) pointing out his error. . .

As for me - this was the first time I have ever included grammar mistakes in a post (on any forum) to illustrate a point. But it was not directed as comment about the content of the thread idea (I am fine with grammar & spelling mistakes, I am fine with the colloquial forms of speach, they do not bother me and I make them from time to time as well). . . you are as wrong as the other guy, only in a different way.
