The tl;dr version: I want to be able to kill stuff more often.
For the rest here is my reasoning:
There are 2 reasons for this.
The main one is that in short I want to be able to practice hunting more often. I know its not the same and the fact that they use random routes means it isn't quite that similar but I still believe its good practice. I'm quite active and sometimes quite allot of time goes by before I see one gaining.
Reason 2 (but also a good one imo): This is something fun to do while waiting for something better to do
This game was for the most part fairly boring most would agree. More then once I was on or near max turns burning to do something (although I was spending my time trying to learn to hunt which meant I didn't want to get in a trader). I introduced a friend to this game. I taught him a fair bit, and even managed to organise a fight (which we obviously failed badly at hehe but was fun). I do not think he will return to this game. When asked why his answer was simple. 1st of it took him 2 weeks of playing before the first time he even had a chance to pull that trigger. 2nd of, we had to wait around for the better part of 2 hours before we managed to track someone down to shoot at. Now the fact that getting into a real fight took time and a bit of strategy he considered awesome. The fact that shooting at something was such an exclusive event he found less awesome.
The only drawback I can see too adding more bots is that they might mess up the s/d of ports but I'm sure this is easily fixable.
