What the title says. I know that they can and do call them in (I have tested it in all AI custom games, multiple times), and they only started doing so after the last major update.
Bombers clog up the radiolines for everyone, don’t keep real players from using radios.
I’m not writing this out of anger, I just won a game because of it, but I bet the other team are pissed.
99% of time ai radio call outs, the ai cheats and does pin point accuracy on the human players, it is so stupid. and unfair.
Wait fr? that would explain why Ive been seeing bombers used so much more often.
Its been annoying af, also explains the extra piss poor placement of said bombers.
just make bombers not interrupt radio calls for other players, easy fix
I wanna add that those mortar strikes are definitely ai pin point accuracy. how the hell do they hit me directly every time. such nonsense my god.
Would be nice if they’d bring back the ability for each side to have two radiocalls active at a time.
wait so fake players can call air strikes??? so when a air strike gets placed right on top of you after you squad wipe someone those are bots or do they need to be alive to do it?
I can confirm: AI now calls in airstrikes (tested in custom battles with AI only)
I noticed, that the AI from the enemy team calls in airstrikes, not the AI in my team.
Maybe they dont do it when there is a human player in the team.
@_WARHEAD AI have never called in any kind of artillery when they’re on the players team in solo custom matches. Now I am just assuming this is a behaviour based on the number of players in the game (because I am almost certain that AI does call in radio strikes in regular games too, either that or the bot like squads were actually just very bad players I guess), and I’d like to test this theory out with other people at some point, to see if a equal ammount makes both sides use artillery or if neither side will.
@OblongHarpy4-live Well if you don’t want to take my word for it you can boot up a solo custom game and test it out for yourself. My proof is that it is eminently reproducable, not just on my end.
@Toilet_Paper1 AI does cheat with artillery placement, they will magicly know where you are and where your rally point is (building in the open will see a artillery strike on your position immedietly upon finishing, I hope this was patched out some time ago because I don’t see that to the same degree anymore). But they do still need to manually call it in with a radioman, and the AI also needs time to place it (it’ll stay in the “calling in” state until they’ve placed it, at least a 2-3 second delay), giving you time to kill the AI and thereby averting the strike.
That’s all from me, your professional AI noticer.
Ok i will check it out when i get back from work…thats crazy dawg
all i read is… Silver incoming.
So update there was no AI calling bombers in 3 custom matches i was in so idk man
yeah perhaps it could be divided more so that bombers can only interrupt bombers and other way around
personally, i do not want AI to be dumber.
so they should use bombers and it’s a welcomed change.
especially for MY Pves.
now, with that being said, as the world doesn’t cave ( nor should ) to just me,
i will agree and highlight the more reasonable solution:
the same goes for tanks.
it’s extremely cool that AI can finally use Tanks.
but that shouldn’t affect players pool of things.
hence, the easy fix would be to change how AI works and put them on their own " list " of cooldowns and rules.
I’m fine with whatever solution doesn’t block real players from using game mechanics, I’m just wonder how good it would be to have four incoming waves of bombers at the same time (one AI and one player, for each team)… that would be silly…
