Bots have been added to Random Battles up to tier V PURELY due to MM being unable to make a 12 v 12 battle. So if server pop is low or the amount of players in queue are low from tier I-V, (And since MM tries to do MORE at tier battles).
This does is NOT as frequent as you may think. (With the exception of if you take a tier I-II ship into battle regularly)
It is purely for that reason. This will have no bearing on achievements in Coop as of right now.
