I stumbled upon a post I made in another Thread...

it's never nice nor relaxing when he spawns in the botlist.

If you play team based matches ...and he spawns in your team... then it's pretty much relaxing.

btw. why isn't it possible to copy his stats to another bot ...I have one custom bot which should have his stats (copypasted them in the ini.) but compared to Loque is my bot no match for me. The bot is good but not that good. Why is that so?

Maybe the Coder guys know the answer ...Is this Bot hard coded in the engine?
What about the stats of Xan in the SP ladder.
Or is it in reality a psychological issue? And we just experience a mass autosuggestion.

If I remember well, on the highest difficulty Xan has a skill level above godlike but contrary to popular belief his accuracy setting is standard (summon a rifle and watch him miss miserably).
Another thing about that Xan is how HyperBlast is pathed, Xan blocks a pathnode between you and him and he takes an alternate route, almost always catching you from a side or behind if you're trying to run away from him.
It's mostly psychological and winning is easy if you don't let him camp the shield belt.

The actual bane of my existence during that tournament was Riker on AS-Overlord, mofo would camp the cannon high and snipe my entire team down as we approached from the tunner.
My team... was a custom Botz formed ladder team with Aegor in it and we got wiped in every single attack.

PD:
I'll release XC_Force skin and a custom Botz team for tournament ladders for next FerBotz lol.

I'm not sure if it's really hard coded in or not but I do remember nurfing Loque's ability in the .ini and it works. Copying, I think it didn't go well because I guess I didn't copy everything to make it outstanding.

But hey, Aegor is more outstanding than Loque! (Ferbotz suggestion, huehuehue)
& everytime I play with Ferbotz and then Loque sometime later, I thought Loque is slacking or I really had a lot of fun playing with Ferbotz cuz Loque isn't a deadly bot to me anymore.

Not exactly. When you first get UT Loque and the rest of the 32 bots everybody's familiar with are all set as defaults; except Xan. That's why if you change the bots but click the "return to defaults" you get them all back the way they were when they first showed up on your system.

Not so much with me.

Their setups are in the DefUser.ini but back in the day when I made my own custom bots it bothered me when someone else used my system and set UT back to factory defaults...

...so I changed the DefUser.ini to my own bot list and controls.

Basically, I performed a lil' exorcism on my UT and now Loque is just gone.

Xan on the other hand, being the default for the BossSkins model is a summonable player. I forget what the specific is, but if you summon the boss-model into the game, even though he shows up as "Player" in the score list, that's Xan as he was intended to be.

Hm... I don't have Aegor anymore ...I think there is the PS2 Skaarj boss now. With slightly different stats.
What number has Aegor in the list?

I don't see a bot of that name on the list · http://www.jonlinney.co.uk/info/utbots.htm

Aegor is a Ferbot.

On that list, it seems that Loque is just the guy with highest Accuracy, but Style is normal.. Yeah, his accuracy roxx, 100% hit with the Minigun all over Deck 16

I swear, anytime anyone mentions Ferbots, I picture this:

Bots covered in fur.

Seeing as Loque has come up an insane amount of the time the last few months, for a bot that's been so long gone and mostly forgotten, I went digging around for his setup · http://tinyurl.com/mh9xcqw

After that I set him up with my own bots, to estimate how good he actually is. Set him up just as that said...

...minus I gave him Daffy Duck for a voicepack.

Does he still eat you? I set up other bots like Loque, they didn`t work like him.Maybe it is just a psychological thing....

Aegor isn't a bot from UT bots. It's from Ferbotz.

I never did looked at Ferbotz that way b/c they aren't furbotz lol. But I do have an idea why Ferbotz are named. lol.

Well, yes... they're not furry-bots, it's just how it sounds when you say it.

noccer wrote:Does he still eat you?

I can honestly say he has never eaten me. He only looks like a zombie.

Now I see ...I exchanged Arachne with the Skaarj boss and renamed it Arachneus.

Sooo ...I assume, all the fear Loque has spread in the community was merely because his accuracy.
There is nothing special on his set up.
Or am I wrong?

Well, his aim is jacked up and he's set never to camp... which indicates he's always hunting for prey and he can kill you without you knowing where he was at the time. Although his base skill level is set to average so he's deadly but not super-deadly. His spidey-sense is pretty high and he can kill on the run with better than average strafing, but he's not at all jumpy so not that unpredictable.

You're not entirely wrong.

Wasn't Loque a big part of why there was so many aimbots? I forgot where I heard that.

Somewhat but other bots have some kind of autoaim as well so the main thing is, we all can blame it on epic because they created it..... LOL.
