good sniping map where get? and good sniping bots

[dragonlord]

how could i get bots to be VERY good at sniping
i mean they pick a place and sit there waitting for someoene to come by and not even moving snipe them....like humnans's do

and any maps that are very good at sniping for? i mean big open maps, like urban3 in quake2....or grandcanyon in quake2 ... or that blue city in halflife

Just set bots settings like this (I think)
Fav weapon: sniper rifle
camping: high
jumpy: no
accuracy: high

that should do it.

Try Face or LavaGiant or DiamondSword.

Bots won't snipe in DiamondSword. I have several bots configured as Rooster suggests. One night after about 8 or 9 beers, I was listening to music on the headphones, and decided to see how long I could snipe on DiamondSword before a bot takes me out. Forty-five minutes later, after 167 kills, 120 headshots I was still unharmed. When the bots enter the sniping towers they don't seem to notice the rifle and just go for the armour.
In my stats it says I had 25 kills with the ripper on DiamondSword in one game. I don't recall seeing that weapon on that map or ever using it before.. very odd.
A good map for bot snipers is Hydro from the bonus pack.


To make the world a better place, get the entire population to hold hands and sing a song of peace, but make them do it at gun-point so nobody gets 'out of line'.

Almost forgot to mention HallofGiants. That's the best bot sniping map I've played. If the opposing team has 2 bots configured to snipe, getting away with the flag becomes extremely difficult, they're so accurate it's scary. They'll headshoot you as you fly thru the air.
