i love this game, and it provides that serotonin relief that cod: vanguard, bfv, and bf 2042 can’t. but I have 2 main complaints with this game.
1: Squad AI is terrible. I’m not talking about them shooting and getting kills, but rather how they follow the player. I will die, swap to bot ready to continue the fight, and they will be a good 20-50 meters away. not acceptable for a squad based game
2: ladders need a huge fix. 4/10 times, my soldier will just refuse to climb the ladder for no apparent reason. Gaijin plz fix asap!

To add to that an issue I will get is my AI randomly getting stuck on something i.e. a staircase, window, or something odd. The ladder issue I can’t tell if it’s an issue climbing the ladder or if the ladder was destroyed and the texture just hasn’t rendered in. Either way yes these are frustrating and need to be fixed
Further, We should be able to order our squad to stay put until called. 2nd, when we do place squad next to the action we should be able to force them to stay either prone or kneel for concealment. 3rd how close they stay with the squad leader should be set adjustable with 3 positions a.very close, b. medium distance (a player setting), c. long distance (a player setting). Next, if we setup up an ammo supply we should be able to designate a bot to run ammo and resupply the acting squad leader. Last, if we are flanking an enemy position, the squad leader should be able to set up bots in positions to watch the leader’s flank and 6 /rear so those roving enemy that thrives on catching lone flanking soldiers are suppressed.
Can confirm the ladder thing. Happens also in Normandy bunkers where the ladder can’t be destroyed. It seems you are blocked at a certain height, a bit more than a soldier would be tall.
The bots should learn to run to keep up with the player.
Also it would be nice to have an individual placement for each bot. Or at least make them stay within the same room as the player. You don’t need squad gameplay if they all die running out of a building for no reason…

ive been getting blocked from getting to the 4th or so rung on ladders for no reason in normandy (possibly others, i dont remember) and as of recently one or more of my bots somehow get stuck inside walls and i have to suicide them cause they cant get out
I do not want everyone hiding and saving their bots and only using them as spawns. Hopefuly they will be able to help more with furthur development . Sure wish they took voice commands.
