I think one of the "bots" is when you get your Titan and then exit it. It follows you can gives some support, I believe.
Titanfall: Why 6 vs 6 is Fine, a nine minute section of the podcast, where they talk about Titanfall.
They talked about Titanfall's maximum player count of 12 on Podcast Unlocked (IGN's Xbox podcast). Each of the panel members had spent a few hours with the game, and they all said that the 6 vs 6 system works extremely well.
Personally, I think the whole "bigger is better" mentality isn't 100% accurate when it comes to games, particularly with player count. It depends much more on how the game is developed with player cound in mind. Over my decades of gaming, I have had the most fun with FPS' that have had (relatively) smaller player counts.
I watched that before and it still says nothing other than its awesome to play which of course is always what's important but the maps plainly support the large amount of players and populate it with canon fodder instead of other real players. If 6v6 was perfect, why are they filling it up with bots? Just leave it 6v6, not 6v6 with 40 bots. That's just what I'm wondering.

Never played DOTA, nor do I even know what it is... So, what does it mean that they compared the AI to creeps?The very first thing they do is equate the AI to creeps in Dota... End of discussion.

6v6 is not a problem; "bots" are not a problem.
Which means the AI is there only to spend your ammo on(by killing them) and not adding any benefit to you?
There is plenty of benefit to them, at least in Dota. They exist to level the players, provide currency, and serve a purpose in attacking the towers / pushing the lanes. How that will happen in Titanfall remains to be seen, but certainly not some huge detriment.
In one of the videos I saw they explained that the bots are there so that people who aren't very good at FPS and/or are having problems killing other human players can still get kills. Apparently, you need to rack up kills in order to be able to call down Titans, I think.

You make it sound like titans = killstreaks calling in a chopper. I dont think it will be quite like that but is a similar idea.
Did they really say that it is for people who aren't good to have a chance in the game? I made that idea up as a joke in a previous post and didn't think it was even the case.
It basically is a killstreak, you get rewarded for getting kills. Its the same people who did cod 4 isn't it? 3-5-7 kill steaks
So, this actually looks cool. I doubt I'll get one, but I like the look.

Looks pretty sharp, I wonder how comfortable it will be.
