Gap between low tier and high tier AI is a bit too high

Hi all.

I just was playing for a few week and I was impressed at how fdifferent 1 star and 4 star soldier act when you dont control them…

1 star seem to wait a good 4 sec before doing anything even reacting to an ennemy in front of them
4 star sometime go aim shot in a quarter of a second, they dont hit mind you but they act way way faster and shoot way faster…sometrime too fast in fact…

I think the gain between each tier of soldier should be changed a bit, i mean tier1 soldier act slower than any form of life on earth and 4-5star one are almost super human reaction fast(since they seem to spot throught walls and stuff)

I don’t think so. They are equally trash.

AI performance has changed dramatically since the last 2 patches. In my first weeks of play at level I, II my AI were shooting fairly often and getting some good/hits kills. Now levelled up to III with perks and they shoot rarely and hit nothing. Only the controlled soldier is getting any score. This is in contrast to the early patches where ‘enemy’ AI were nailing me with headshots from over 100m when I was in a ditch hiding in bushes/long grass not moving not shooting. The whole AI balance is currently out of whack and needs to be fixed.

I didn’t really notice much of a difference but that’s awesome they incorporated AI behavior based on level. They’ll surely continue balancing.

It is so easy to level AI I would think that system will get more of a work up first.

I have the feeling that at the moment the AI shoots only if the player gets attacked.

If my observation is correct, I see it as a problem because my AI squad m8s get no experience points.

I feel like the UI might currently be bugged to only show player kills in your squad menu. Nonetheless I do agree that AI squadmates are pretty ineffectual overall. I’ve started getting into the habit of plopping a hold order on a secluded area near me and fighting alone.

I don’t think soldier AI is affected by level, my 5 star squad doesn’t do any better than my 1 star one. It would also be kinda stupid on gaijin’s part to separate AI into five seperate Ai’s when it’s already not that great.
