Beginning with Battlefield 2: Modern Combat, bots are present in the singleplayer campaign, appearing both as squadmates and as enemies. Some maps are not available with bots, although third-party mods compatible with the first three games can add or improve the necessary pathfinding code. Bots can also be used in these games' Conquest Co-op gametype. They are used mainly to fill teams in the singleplayer mode in Battlefield 1942, Battlefield Vietnam, Battlefield 2, Battlefield 2142 and Battlefield 2042. They will also respond to threats such as flanking gunfire, live grenades, and the occasional Commo Rose command. They are available offline and within online co-op game modes and can perform basic actions such as commandeering vehicles, manning machine gun emplacements and capturing control points. But as difficulty progresses, they become more resilient and are accurate shooters trying to aim for headshots.

For example, with the Easy difficulty, they seem untrained and are inaccurate shooters. Bot intelligence varies with difficulty and the installment of the series they appear in. Non-player characters, also known as Bots, are a type of artificial intelligence program, with each individual instance of the program representing a player. It may contain little or inaccurate information. This article is currently under construction.
