BOTS - Intentionally dumb?

Year after year, it’s always the same.

If I position myself to fire, immediately the BOTs in my squad get in front of me. Making it impossible to fire.

Even if I indicate where they are, when I position myself, bots from other squads immediately position themselves in front of me.

Really annoying.

My suggestion: make the bots always stay behind you. And if they’re bots from other squads, make them stop lining up in front of you.

In time.

For the angry fan boys. Theres a lot of similar games that the bots dont stay in front of you.

In an optimal world AI would be as deadly as players up close - while being much much stronger at mid range combat and even being a real threat at 100 meters past.

AI is still much too weak.

The only thing they are good at is melee combat.

they’re somehow VERY proficient in melee by having inhumane flick reflex

Don’t forget when you try to flank a side while on a bush and it start raining fire

I think having dumb bots is sort of fun because you get to shoot a lot of dumb bots. On the other hand their behaviour is incredibly annoying since they never do as you say and always get stuck.

Especially shit like blocking you when shooting or building, that should really be programmed out.

Overall, I do like the system with bots. It makes the game fun but sometimes there just very annoying.

The bots are basically ducklings following a mamma duck … its part of enlisted’s charm.

It would be nice if bots could be set to not flag themselves at least by the squad they are in.

Perhaps also enhancing the formation instead of just narrow, normal, and wide, have like v, line, etc and have them move into that type of formation.

Overall, the BOTS in this game are probably the poorest quality BOTS I have ever seen in a video game. It’s bad enough that they run in front of you when your shooting, but they don’t stay where you order them to. One or two might stay where ordered, but two will be standing out in the open outside the building somewhere and one might be in a building or bunker 50 to 100 meters away. They also run around like crack heads that haven’t had a fix in days. :laughing: They are also worthless if your sprinting to the next cap point as NONE of them will sprint and NONE of them will keep up. I guess it is to complicated for DF to program them to sprint when you sprint. :roll_eyes:

Like many other issues with the game people have complained for a couple years or so, and like the other things people complain about, nothing changes.

I guess DF did respond to some people complaining and neutered he AP mines to the point where they are all but worthless now, but I guess the good news with that is the BOTS that are running around going through crack withdraws won’t be dying on the AP mines. However since they are going through withdraws out in the open they’re being shot before they can stumble on an AP mine anyway. :rofl:

well its about time you feel the same as I . :face_with_hand_over_mouth: :expressionless:

FYI: if you order them with the individual command in a spot they will stay put until you reach max distance ( arty also makes them scatter). Not a real solution for the problem but more a kind of workaround. Annoying downside is you always have to do lots of inputs so binding the command to the mousewheel (or any other “easy spammable” key) helps a lot.
