As a player who played this game for 1 year(not very long compared with some experieced players), i want to share some personal opinion about this game.I will go straight,try to make it sweat and short.
1.New player’s guidence
To put it bluntly，the guidence of this game is terrible,actually,l learned most of the things need to know in this game from some experienced streamers.The existing novice guidelines are too simple.For example,Although many players know how to build a rally point, they will place the rally point in some very inappropriate positions, such as an attic or an open area without cover.The first will block the AI soldiers and you need to control them one by one.The second action…I can’t find a suitable word to describe it.In addition, in battle, many players will choose to stay with the soldier rather than switch soldiers after the soldier falls to the ground. This is a fatal mistake, especially in close combat, which means that your team may be directly wiped out.Basic FPS tutorials are necessary, but as a single player control a squad to fight as the core of the game, these are far from enough.
2.AI logic
Nowadays AI Wayfinding system is a nightmare.Even a door can block your AI,not to mention whether they can keep up with the players.As for letting AI help build fortifications, I think I might as well count on my human teammates.In most cases, I only get an answer, and then see them running around like untrained civilians, or ADHD is more appropriate.I miss that AI on call version very much. I mean, at least they will help me build fortifications.For me, the biggest trouble AI causes to me is that they sometimes don’t follow the orders I give them. For example, when I let them occupy the target point, almost half of the soldiers will stay outside Soldiers take obeying orders as their bounden duty. I hope my AI can obey this. I don’t care their casualty figures, as long as they stick to the point.
3.weapon balance
I hate the poor accuracy of guns after update.I don’t think this is in line with the actual accuracy of weapons. If I were the government and the arms dealer provided me with such weapons, I should shoot him directly.And after that,the official nerfed the semi-auto rifle’s rof,well,incredible,and keep the SL weapons rof at the same time.At least,I thought the dev will fix the reloading anime for weapons which used 5 rounds clip to reaload,such as G41 which was mentioned by others on the forum long time ago.But the dev did nothing on it,and the tuner SMLE,I think it is the only lucky guy who doesnt suffer it.It really makes some semi-auto rifles unplayable now, having poor accuracy ,slow rof and suffering from long reload time at the same time.I don’t understand why I unlock these weapons. Is it to make myself more miserable？If you think their previous performance is too strong, you can consider enhancing the recoil force during continuous shooting, so as to affect the shooting accuracy, rather than forcibly giving the player a rusty trigger rifle.Sometimes you can clearly see that the bullets go too far. They shoot directly get through the model of the barrel.This is ridiculous.
4. pre war preparation
In the pre war preparation stage, players can get too little information, and you don’t even know which respawn point you will be assigned to.I think players should be given the right to choose, and tell everyone how many people have chosen this respawn point.This is more conducive to cooperation between players.This is particularly important for the defender. Such as a small point is crowded with players’ AI, which is very close to the front line and will soon meet the enemy. People are trying to find their way through the chaos.At this time, a large number of grenades fly over, and this tragedy is staged every day.At least, you have to give players more opportunities to organize defense.
I have a lot of idea want to share ,but im too tired now.I welcome you guys to exchange your views.Hope you have a good day.
It is very bland. I remember starting out not knowing a damn thing I was doing and basically learning it over a course of a few weeks. Even then I was being blind to how useful perks were.
Yes it’s been terrible, and really has improved very little since I’ve started. Pathfinding on some maps is absolutely atrocious. Though it is nice they do not shoot at aircraft anymore. As for building, my best advice is to get your engineer AI as close as you want to build so they actually build. I find that if they are 20m~ or more away they will go full Arnie Grape.
Some guns are good, some are bad. I won’t go into all of them but I agree that some have dispersion that seems to have gotten worse. I usually buy the low- mid level guns and max them out rather than waste the silver and bronze on more expensive disappointments.
Yes, 100% agree. We should be able to chose a spawn point when we enter the battle rather than spawn at a random location. Our boys worked hard to put down a rally, and if it’s available for me to start on, please let me.
My AI has always and still is shooting at aircraft, didn’t know they tried to change that
AI is still facinated by the flying grenade.
it improved massively since the OBT launch noe they actually seeks cover and dont just stand around and they throw grandes back.
but on a scale of 1 to 10
before they were 1 now they are 3.5
you should add that bots are always looking in some retarded way. you are having fight and when you switch bot is facing some random direction…
They do have some reactions when you mark,they will look at that direction,but no guarantee for futher steps.Although you used the close formation,most of the time you switch soldiers, you’ll still find them everywhere.
At present, AI’s behavior has a high probability to change due to entering the contact state. To be honest, I think it’s stupid, especially when building fortifications,they just left me and ran away.
I think the system is brilliant, while leaving huge room for improvement. I also think they made the maps too small, and the insta grey zoning is very unwelcome. The AI controls are wonky, semi responsive. I agree on your points mostly and think they are fair to put out there.
