I stand to be corrected but...
I belive it is possible in the demo to modify it to allow not only a
higher number of bots but also the 32 player map. If this is the case I
don't see it being any more difficult to do so in the full game.
There are 2 problems with this - firstly the bots will not have the
correct pathing for the larger map versions so I would expect them to
sometimes get very confused and not play well. Secondly I have no idea
if these modifications would be picked up by punkbuster as 'impure'
files leaving you unable to play on PB enabled multiplayer servers.
Incidentally some 16 player maps do have aircraft which the bots do fly
properly. I think.
