Just like title says.
Implement private matches, but implement an intuitive bot system inside it.
Include:
modifiers
Up to 6-8 players
Challenges
Milestones
Ability to restrict loadouts
Reward completed challenges (only for bot system)
If anyone played games like goldeneye and perfect dark then you know what I'm talking about. Having challenges a group can work towards would definitely create an endgame feel and something people replay the hell out of.
Edit: rewards are not based off player vs player. They are directly related to the challenges associated with bot challenges. The only reason private matches are mentioned is because you would implement the bot system in there.
Example:

These don't seem like much, but put in 8 perfect sims and it could take you weeks to beat.

*Update*
It seems Battlefront 2 is implementing a bot system. The people saying "easier said then done" ... yeah this is to you.

Every subclass, and both paths in that subclass, would require its own AI for it to know what its abilities are and how to use them. Not to mention that every single crucible map would have to have pathfinding added to it. And even then AI pathfinding will never simulate a player's mobility.

Bump for the update i added

First off, dear. Private matches should never and will never give you rewards. Secondly, adding an intuitive bit system isn't just a switch to flick. I don't think I know a game that has bots that has mobility like Destiny. I'm sure u fine could do it given time, but you probably won't be that satisfied with the results.

I just want to have fun with friends with mayhem rumble private matches pls.

Bumped for the edit and added links. Better examples of what im saying

Dudeeeee a bot system is such an amazing way to efficiently practice crucible gameplay in the least amount of time without having to wait to find games and matchmaking. Very very good idea

Remember everyone, in the entertainment world, the phrase "Easier said than done" has a greater impact than you realize.
