Continuing the discussion from Are they being serious with this?: I think they must have changed it as the start button is now missing I’ll show you how it use to work though and file a bug report because I really enjoyed this feature to see how things worked.
Steps:
Move to Select mode
Go to My brawls
A number of the modes work but go to Missions vs Survivors
Select (Any Vehicles)
Add a few AI players
Hover over your own name and pull up the context menu (right click on PC and select move to spectator)
Refill your spot with an AI
Set up the rest of the custom battle like map and the other settings.
It would look like this before you started with the start button next to the leave button:
When it use to work you got an empire of the match type of freecam view and you could flout around the match seeing all the dmg scores from each bot’s attacks. It probably broke when they added in the custom brawls.
@Poony4u The one way you can still get around this current limitation is have a friend sit in for one of the AI players on either side. They can kind of just cloak themself and run around on the sidelines avoiding the fight while you watch what is going on.
It’s interesting and educational to see how the bots use stuff though. I’m not even sure if they want to expose bot behavioral tactics that much so I’m pretty sure this would go on the bottom of the stack to fix. So use the work around if you can.
Birds-eye and/or cinematic playbacks would be very nice.
If I were in charge, I would try to get good looking playback features working. Not only because it would be fun to watch some of our matches from a floating camera, but also that it would result in a ton of free marketing from players posting content. For a free small time game, Crossout looks pretty good.
It would also be great if we could get playback video of our Leviathan battles, so we can finally see how they perform against humans.
