Hey there! idk about you but I’m one of those people who like first person shooter pve, and this game meets it because almost all the enemies are ai, but can there be a mode where 100% of the enemies are ai, and its single player.
Thanks!

As much as I would like to get some PvE content. It’s completely naive to think we’ll get anything more than private lobbies in customs.
You’re probably new here and you clearly have no idea what kind of studio you’re dealing with.
I won’t elaborate on that too deeply.
But the pace and efficiency with which they work…
To come up with more complex PvE mode that isn’t just a modified lobby in customs would take them a few years at least.
I personally, for example, have been waiting for a customization for APC for a year and a half (as they promised it to us a year and a half ago).

as someone who makes pve mods, i might sound bias…
but i agree!.
PVEs can offer so much.
for example, historical battles, tower defense type of missions, and much, much more.
however…
as adamn tried to point out, PVEs needs some serious work.
otherwise they will be for the most part generic and bland.
currently, the biggest issue with AIs, are the rather inefficient way to deal with tanks, or airplanes.
they are, just recently, been able to spawn tanks. but that’s about it.
if AI are given anti tank weapons, they will use it on infantry.
and they have no way to fend off Airplanes.
snipers are kinda op against AI.
because they are unable to retaliate from very distant targets Even if they have a scope themselves.
AIs are… somewhat dumb. pathfinding is a nightmare.
let alone that at this moment in time, if stationary, they will always look for coordinates 0,0,0.
resulting in these type of situations:
where AI will pretty much look where they aren’t supposed to.
there are also some major flaws of how they behave.
for example, all they currently do, is go from point A to point B.
and if there are enemies in between, they will mosty avoid them.
they are unable to storm houses correctly. going just one by one inside the house in a single file line.
just waiting to be gunned down.
if there are 40 casualties in the way, they don’t have the decency to pop smoke.
if a tank is shooting at them, or an mg, they don’t take cover…
and worse of them all, if a cap zone is large, they always tend to clump up in a single spot opposed as being on multiple spots within a capzone.
and to conclude, the issue will probably DF it self.
they can be very greedy.
and the only way i can see them ever doing PVEs, is either with reduced xp, or a mere tower defense type of mission for boosters and minor rewards like WT.
“best” way would be through a dlc.
but i’m not getting my hopes up on that either.
meaning, they will either never do it, or if they do it, have very low xp gaining rate.
which it’s a shame.

A pve mode could be considered as a way to actually improve AI since it will be focused on it
I cannot give so much ideas but i would like to end with an AI like the one insurgency sandstorm have
“they’re just bots bro”
an AI that literally says skills issue to even a 30k CS2 Player (not because having an insane aim but having an actual strategy)
