When will the basic bugs be fixed and the AI stop being so dumb? The AI can climb and swim, but when it comes to following you, it chooses the path that is most crowded with enemies.
And remove the automatic cancellation of orders or put unlimited reinforcements.

I agree they definitely need to make it to where they attempt to follow in your exact footsteps, and they definitely need to increase the distance that you can order them to.
Additionally, I think it would be nice if you could order half your squad to a location and have the other half follow you, that way you could set up more effective flank pushes.

It would be great if the AI was able to kill, but it is almost zero cases of the AI killing on its own.
I have already made a post about increasing squad “wait here” order, wanted to remind that apart of the extremely short distance where your squad can wait, you can set individually a position for each soldier of your squad. It’s crazy micromanagement and i dont really know how many people do use it, but the function is there
just press the letter K(“switch the mode of giving orders”) to open the menu, then X for them to wait
With the time it takes to give individual orders, you lose the game.
I play on console, so I don’t even know if its an option for me.
I’d be happy if they just allowed more separation between the squad and the toon you are controlling. They know that most people try to hide their squad so they don’t get slaughtered. Just let us do it.

Well, Lone Warriors mode is at least accessible in custom matches.
Frankly, I’d prefer an option to command several squads at once, but, that’s probably a tall order in terms of data required, with these player counts.
I may be in a small minority when I say that the dumb AI is what makes Enlisted for me I couldn’t imagine it any other way. I’ve evolved my play style around how stupid and unpredictable the AI is at times but mostly it is predictable so I agree. Definitely there needs to be many improvements to the AI but there’s always a threshold where the devs need to balance between dumb dodo birds flailing around aimlessly and highly skilled terminators that will headshot your entire battalion 1 by 1
The commander mode of games like holdfast or battle of cry allows you to command teams of 30 bots and they do it better ._.
I don’t think it’s impossible, they don’t want to do it.
A middle ground between dodo and terminator would be nice.
I would add seasoning without mentioning that you could trust your bots a bit more since you can’t trust the players.

Maybe?
I’m not disagreeing with the laziness part, but I think it’s more complicated than that.
Things that do come to mind - how detailed the maps are in enlisted and the holdfast/battle of cry?
They are relatively large, since each player has 26 bots in command and they are maps with between 100-200 players.
