I give two examples
See my teammates behind me? They are not snipers hiding in the gray zone, they are bot teammates, because of the shit pathfinding of this game AI, they are all trapped in the house, I have observed them, they just stay in the house, what do not do
So, the AI pathfinding in this game is complete shit, not only does it affect the player’s AI not being able to keep up with them, it also makes an already unfair game even more unfair
If you think a game with unequal numbers of players is unfair enough? Look at this, the bots used to supplement the lack of human players are AFK in the house!

So, when exactly is AI pathfinding fixed? What is the development team doing?

As for Tunisia, the BOT is completely broken.
It is stuck in doors, wells, walls next to entrances, all kinds of places.
That should not have happened before.

Yes, it was working in africa campaign fine until last December.
The bot got stuck all over the place at the time of some update.

Bots are just easy xp farm for enemy or useable meatshield for players.
I can confirm that its not just Tunisia. The AI in what seems to be all campaigns broke pretty badly as of a couple updates ago. I’m not really sure what causes it, but I THINK it has something to do with them trying to put down rally points. I know AI are capable of putting up rally points now (as of one of those updates), but it seems like they get stuck where they try to put it down.
Also, the AI rally points are not helpful as they put them down just on the edge of the original spawns. This actually is HURTING teams more than helping as it tends to draw “hunters” into the area. “Hunters” are referring to players that know approximately where the AI placed rally points are and farm them for kills and points.
Until the mechanic is developed better, I think removing it would remove the issue of AI getting stuck like this.

AI in tunisia is broken for some motive
It’s amazing that AI is not a priority for developers

I find the real players im matched with are bots too in at least 80% of games

that is why squads should be deleted. 
Actually I think it is. If I’m not mistaken, there is a team specifically working on that aspect. However, as a buddy of mine has worked on AI behavior in the past, that is a MASSIVE amount of coding to try to work with.

this legit tilted me earlier and i nearly uninstalled. it came down to a hair in a confrontation game, both sides had no spawns left, and 2 - 3 of my teams squads were just sat in spawn. if they came to point we’d have won
lost a booster on that
this is true and a lot of people lose sight of this but it’s especially annoying when every update after an improving update they revert back to how they were a year ago, if not worse. last gen consoles are the problem, if devs were given more freedom without having to cater to early 2010s tier specs we’d be fine
I think this is another reason we tend to play more reckless.
If ai was half way decent, they could really defend and shoot properly, cover themselves and provide covering fire etc…
Everybody see them as just meatbags to use as shield or xp farm now.
