The bots could play both Marines and Aliens. They followed waypoints, built structures, and as aliens fortified the hive with a grip load of OCs and DCs. Skulk behavior was down right scary. Bunny hopping in groups around the map attacking with tenacity. They even took down my relocate attempt twice by 4 human players to reactor room in ns_tanith.
As Marines, the bots were moving around the map in groups around ns_nothing capping resnodes for me, building phase gates, and the occasional TF and turrets if coaxed enough.
The bots, though, has problems using ladders and alien gorges not capping RTs often enough. Though their skulk counterparts were aggressive patrolling the map and attacking marine start.
Combat mode behavior is ok, the aliens will be toe to toe with the human marines until they level up to gorges and then they're not as deadly anymore. Occasionally, an alien gorge will get enough res to fade and start killing marines again.
Their most interesting trait though, is their chat code. Very amusing, one of my teammates didn't realize they were bots until well into the 2nd game playing with them. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
RCBot is okay.. ish.. they don't move around combat maps much though, they just wait around in their hive, and the marines are about as useless. I do like the way they talk like idiots, though, heh.

Did you use search?
when playing bots, the round wont end when all hives/bases are destroyed.
