How to identify that a player is a bot in PUBG mobile

mobileplayerunknowns-battlegrounds

I have been a PUBG mobile player for a real long time now. When I posted my chicken dinner win on social networks they said I won against bots and not real users.

My question is: Is there any way to identify if my opponent is bot or not?

Best Answer

I have compiled a list of various methods to spot bots from multiple gaming news websites as sources to confirm the following list.

Please not that all the sources confirm that these aren't "official" ways of spotting bots as there aren't any official ways to do so yet. These are mot tips and things to look out for to spot bots more easily when playing the game.

Situational awareness

    If you creep up on a player (for example when they have their back turned), they shouldn't have any idea you're there. Bots will notice you pretty much as they appear in your line of site, regardless of whether or not they should be able to.

    Bots within the game always seem to have a sixth-sense, meaning that as soon as you have them in your vision or line-of-sight, they will immediately be aware of your presence.

Visual cues

    I spawned into one game with a huge chunk of enemy players were running around in the same shirt with the same haircut. Now PUBG Mobile may not have the most down to the details character creation menu, but most people on the Internet have a little more room for variation than that.

Gameplay intelligence

    There are a lot of dumb players out there, but that doesn't change the fact that 9 times out of 10, bots can be pretty dopey. If the fact that they can scope you out too easily scares you, they're also not very smart and are designed to be more or less cannon fodder.

    Bots, in all honesty, are prone to a bit of stupidity. So, if you see a character with one gun, who always knows where you are, and who appears to be acting rather erratically and can’t seem to successfully aim or shoot you, then you have yourself a bot.

Extra loot

    When you kill a bot and loot their body, you'll often find they were carrying more than they visually appeared to be (e.g. armor when they weren't wearing any).

Loadout

    Similar to above, most of the bots are running around with only one weapon, and won't ever attempt to switch between the two (they don't really need to). If they're still around in endgame, you can be pretty certain that even the noobest player on the planet will have scavenged around enough to kit themselves out a little better.

Weapons

  • Source: redmondpie

    Bots within the game will typically only be carrying one weapon. They are bots after all so they don’t need to be loaded with weapons of destruction.

When do you encounter the most often

    You should also only notice that these bots appear in the early-mid part of the game.

Avoiding bots

Apparently, there is obviously no way of removing bots for good, but the more you play and level up (usually outside the bronze bracket), the less you are likely to encounter bots in-game:

Once you move yourself up out of the Bronze bracket then the number of bots appearing in a game should noticeably decrease.
