The AI currently just get in the way and give my position away. I have yet to see one of them shoot anything. Is there a update on the way?
They work better when they reach higher levels (4-5 stars). It also sometimes helps to mark enemy for them - they really turn to that side then and possibility that they will shoot someone is higher
They also don’t work too well as quick respawns if you take them with you. Not in the meat grinder we have here. It only works as intended when a) you’re fighting at very long range which almost never happens, b) you leave your bots behind or they get stuck somewhere. In any other situation it tends to only add humiliation and further handicap the already defeated player.
They do shoot and even get kills sometimes. It’s just not accentuated enough, which makes them seem even more worthless than they are.
What’s odd is that even low-level machine gunners seem to be highly competent compared to any other class of bots.
