Bot behavior

Is it just me, or are others finding the Bots more stupid in custom matches than on the main servers? I have been playing custom matches quite a lot lately and find the Bots completely brain-dead. They get stuck behind the smallest of objects. At least on the main servers, they do follow you over most things that are in their way. Just wondering.

I can relate that too, while playing lone fighters. Somethimes we can find almost all the bots stuck at some fence waiting to be “respawned”.

Devs spending to much time on sunshine and rainbows and not game mechanics.
1 problem is devs not talking to players. We need direct line to discuss things.
2 bad managment is rampant
3 Game testers missing too many bugs
4 Unless its a sliver bug, bugs rately get fixed

Nope, not just you. I played a game a week or so ago in Tunisia. I capped a point and was running to the next cap point. When I left the capped point, I was upstairs, the next cap point lets say was north (since I don’t know the directions of the maps). I ran downstairs and out the east door and proceeded about 125 meters north into a building where I clicked the X on the floor calling the bots, then proceeded to build a rally point. When I got the rally point finished, I noticed that not a single bot had appeared, which was odd, so I switched to the next soldier to see where they were. They had run out the door I did of the capped point, and kept running east, not north like I did. They were at least 100 meters to the east of the capped point, and probably 150 meters from my location, and they were all there. Not sure WTF told them to go there, but dogshit AI programming.

Other times, I can take a 9 man rifle squad, get everyone safely upstairs in a building adjacent to the cap point, and literally one by one watch them either run downstairs and out the door getting shot, run outside on the balcony and JUST STAND there till they get shot, or they will stand in front of an open window inviting to be shot. Next thing I know, I have myself in the cap point, and two or three bots that are still alive.

I gave up playing in the general game for the most part quite a while ago because of the BS preferred map mode crap that doesn’t work, so, I guess I can’t say they are more stupid, but they are quite pathetic, and to be honest, embarrassing. I have also noticed that most enemy bots when you shoot them if they drop, they bandage and heal in about half a second…WTF, they drop, you retrain your weapon on another and before you can shoot the bot you just shot bandages, rises up and shoots you. :joy:
