Stormbuddy release and other side notes

Greetings buddies,

as introduction - we get contacted a lot by people that made bots and other interesting products, they mostly fear to make a business out of them, due to the fear to be targeted by Blizzard.

Stormbuddy aka Flumi's Bot is no exclusion of it. If you are disapointed about Stormbuddy, then we are sorry, it mostly speaks for our products then.

But do not think that what you buy now will be the same in 3-4 months from now on. There are multiple reasons why we rushed the release (release will be today, with proper newsletter and information about the prices in an extra thread).

The bot as it is works, it wins vs A.I. almost every time (if you had another expirience please contact us). The only purpose as of now is playing vs A.I.

Some day you will be able to code your own routines as with HB. Some of you where not here, some forgot how a bot looks like and what it can do at the beginning. As we released Gatherbuddy, it had 3 profiles build in (all done by me) and its only purpose was to mine and gather. 6 years later you see what it became.

If you are not patient and if you do not want to help the development of Stormbuddy, do not buy it. It probably is the worst bot of Bossland GmbH so far. But for that we will not excuse ourselves. Because it is been developed, you can call it a buggy early access. Remember all the Steam games you bought, that are full of bugs, cost twice the final product and have no content in them? Thats Stormbuddy.

But Stormbuddy is also the one and only working bot for the masses out there for HotS. Your payments help our development. Now you already heared 2 reasons for such an early release.

You are free to discuss, as long as it does not become a flame war.

 

but its not true plying vs ai is a big problem, you get fast reportet feom your team mates.
you can play just training games which give nearly no exp.
for the mass? if i have 2 sessions in one room which gave me 50% more exp the bot dont start to run, just a afk bot so for now i can let run every bot alone in training and have to hope nothing crashes bit it really crashs alot thanks for your late statement but i dont agree with it..
if i play a training game with 2 sessions i have to restart at the begining the buddy software, than it runs for exactly one game, and if i play with 2 session i lose some training games too because the bot is much worser than the ki of bliz which plays with me

 

First of all, thanks for making this thread to begin with.

I'll just assume you have to plans to take it out of OCR, which was what me, and most people were upset about.

This answered one of my questions, but with the answer comes quite a few questions, do you have plans to support a "combat" bot for SB, if you don't, would you allow other developers to support it?
This could potentially become something similiar to what BoL is for LoL. Asking primarily because of your stance on arenas with HB, and since this is also a Blizzard game.

This is somewhat true, by that I mean, it performs worse than Blizzard's AI. It will win almost every time, if you have human teammates.

 

I wasn't fine with bot being what it is, Im fine after your statement. Just make it work in the background as fast as possible

 

I have faith in the HB team, and trust that they will turn this into an amazing product. you have to start somewhere and I'm glad they released it as is so that we at least have something, Rome wasn't build in 1 day either.

 

New account. Botting only vs. AI. Zero games won. See attached pictures for proof.

I don`t want a refund for now because I hope will get better, I just state the obvious, that the bot cannot handle even a single game VS AI as it said on the site, before you buy it. I really believe that at least the trial version sould be free (and lets say, reduced to 1-2 hours of play).

U said that to contact Bossland if I have such an experience. Consider this post as me trying to contact you. Waiting for a reply whether I do something wrong or it is really the bot that can`t win a single match vs. AI...

 

With human teammates, it becomes an 80% winrate.

 

It would be a 80% winrate if you were just afk in a corner though

 

R U fking kidding me?

Playing with another players VS AI will be like that:
- the other are humans that want very quick wins and will FOR SURE report you as a bot (will be the SAME, or even worse, as playing "quick match");
- the other are like us, botting with Stormbuddy, and you will very quickly lose (with only 50 exp per game).

Also, what Macatho said:

...`cause there is no "KICK" or "report AFK" option, ...for now.

 

No, I am not fking kidding you.
I just stated a fact, and with human teammates, winrate is roughly 80%.

Is that to say I don't realize how fucked we are because the bot gets us easily reported, no.

 

so what is in the works for it? what should we expect to see in the next 3-4 months?

 

Jeez, I hope it won't be that long for it to be background functional, OCR is killing me.

 

Played 3 games lost all 3

 

same, but only timeline he had given was 3-4 months so thats what i went with lol, as it is now ocr and terrible ai/control id say its unusable, should at least be able to win vs ai with ai teammates

 

Glad I invested in a lifetime session, I feel sorry for people that bought monthly keys.
It might just take a lifetime too.

 

Hello, how to contact you ? Because it lose vs AI almost every time (not win !!!!!!)

 

Ya'll whiny bitches know that the bots not going to be in this state in a few months, so why all the bitchin and moanin? Give it some time it'll get better, now go outside.

 

If the bots suppose to currently support Coins, Skulls And tributes like the site claims / shows above the maps i have yet to see it go after any objective.


Edit : this is more of a question. because bossland said / thinks it should be winning maybe somethings not working? <3
Bossland are you playing with AI teammates ?

 

I'd be fine with it in its current state, but it's OCR for god's sake.

Takes me back a decade, back when people used autoIT and pixel detection bots.

 

Some people are upset because they paid now for what they expected to be a "buddy" quality bot, and got as bossland said "early access" level quality, with the promise of improvements in the future. Anyone who purchased a product and is dissatisfied is well within their rights to make that dissatisfaction known, at least in a constructive manner.
