I don’t think you are appreciating just how completely absurdly broken an unshackled FPS bot is. A chess bot will beat you. An FPS bot will not even allow you to play.
I’m not even kidding, an FPS bot will literally kill you from across the entire map, through a wall, with a perfect headshot, long before it would even be possible for you to know where the bot even is.
An unshackled FPS bot knows where you are at all times, how you’re moving, and can execute tick-perfect headshots the very second it can kill you, and it will never miss, even on full auto. It will fire a shot that goes through three sub-pixel-wide gaps and through a wall to instantly kill you, because it can calculate every single angle to get that kill faster than the server can even do a game update.
Humans may not stand a chance against a chess bot, but at least they can play a match against one. Against an FPS bot, you don’t even get to play the match, you just lose.
Another big difference is turn-based vs real-time games. Although both players in a chess game use a timer, making a move a tenth of a second later usually won’t make a significant change on the outcome. This is not the case for real-time games like FPSs, where a bot that can react faster than any human can will always win.

It’s an apples to oranges comparison. FPS bots are not playing the same game: they have perfect information in an imperfect information game.
