They are insane spycheckers though. And I can't wait until they figure out how to use unlocks.

And by that, you mean they basically treat spies as normal enemies all the time.

It was so weird trying to sneak behind a heavy and then have him spot you, rev up his gun and spin around to face you; all because he saw me acting suspicious.

And then when I went back to normal servers I had one of those "What if everybody is a bot?" moments.

Is it possible to actually be disguised to a bot? I.E. be a spy and not have them shoot you on site when disguised.

Well a good spychecker does shoot everyone on sight, spy or not.

Their blog post about the subject has more info but apparently they have no more information than an actual client connected to an actual server. So no maphacks, hidden knowledge, etc.

They are basically a robot made to play the game. And they are fairly good at what they do, considering how complex and tactical TF2 can get. Its also the reason that the bots cant play Scout or Spy yet, it is just such a complicated game.

I've had heavies look at me revved up, for like 20 seconds, and after I kept looking at them, something clicked in their code and they started shooting.

Not sure if it's a glitch or not, but it seemed very much like a realistic heavy.

Maybe if you had kept moving around paying it no mind it wouldn't have shot(no I havent played against the bots yet so I don't know) but if you just stood there watching it that could have very well looked like the 'deer in headlights effect' I often see in spies while playing that just screams in big letters "Fill me full of bullets because I am a spy and I need more heavy metals in my diet!"

He'll still shoot you. I would know. I go for the front lines as though I'm about to attack but they shoot me. I guess they think I'm trying to go back to heal. Either that or they're trying to shoot someone else and I get hit by the stray bullets :P

Wow... playing with twenty bots on nucleus with them forced to be engies leads to a mountain of turrets, but they never actually try to claim the center.

There's a minor bug where teams consisting entirely of medics seem content to stay in the base, thanking each other and calling themselves "her doctor".

Moving on, My favorite class is the spy, because I like to break sentries and their engineers long before my team even gets close to them.
(Unless there are no engies on the opposing team... then I just try to backstab anyone who happens to have a back.)
And next on my list is sniper, because I am a pretty decent counter, and nothing pisses snipers of more than being sniped.

 This is followed by the sniper screaming things about "How did you let a heavy past unmolested?!"
