I’m tired of getting instant shot by bots in lonefighters.

Bots’ OP stuff:

  1. Mostly, lonefighters’ bots are always give instant shots. They just running and suddenly turn to you and you dead. Even when they are like “bouncing up and down”, they still can have a instant shot.
  2. They are too accurate at shooting. The headshot rate is insane, and even with premium squad, you still get one shot knock down. For non+35% vitality perk, bots can always shot you died bypassing knock down state.
  3. They are too good at spotting enemies. They are like L4D2’s witch, a bullet passing them can send them to terminator mode. They can suddenly turn around and shoot you without even have to spot you. And, if you are in front of bots, even you are hiding in some place “safe” from human enemies, like in dark place/prone/in bushes/behind smokes. They can still give a instant shot.

Also, this can cause a headache when trying to run across bushy area, like this corridor of that map:

This is a pretty bushy area, while human can have great difficulty seeing through this bushes. So, “as a human” , I like to ambush or use this bushes to sneak through. But, for bots, they just can see and shoot through this bushes fast and accurate. Prone is no use to hide from bots. So passing through this area is a nightmare for this map.

Suggestions:

  1. Nerf the bots’ sight. They just can’t hear a bullet and instantly shoot back. They need to have some time to spot enemies are. The further, darker, and the less exposure of body area, the longer spotting time or even greater chance of unable to spot the enemy!
  2. Let bots’ try to hide first when getting suppressed (hiding includes running to a building/running to hide behind a obstacles). Most average human wont have the first reaction of shoot back when getting suppressed. For a player without great FPS shooting skill like me, my first reaction when getting suppressed is run, run as quickly as possible to a safe area! No one will stand still in that open area and shoot back. Unless they have confidence (like bots’ accuracy).
  3. Before shooting, bots need to come to a still, like human. Since they are using bolt-rifle after their first life, not SMG/LMGs. Using bolt rifle’s strategy should be aim more precisely then shoot, unlike auto weapons, you can moving and shooting (spreading bullets). So, stop letting bots running/jumping/bouncing up and down then shoot.
  4. Reduce lonefighter’s bots’ level, or GIVE THEM A RANDOM LEVEL! LV5’S AI is so OP like above. Even among human players’, those FPS expert are still a small percentage of all players. Just give bots a random level, to reduce the amount of LV5 bots. Also, facing different enemy difficulty is also a fun.
  5. AI dont get suppressed like human! Even you hit them, they still can give a accurate shot! If you are the human who get suppressed like him, your weapon already shake uncontrollably.
  6. MISC:
    a. The faster enemies moving speed (or jumping/making noise), the greater of spotting possibility.
    b. Stop letting bots shooting uselessly to tanks.
    c. Let bots still able to use other squads after their first lives, though, except AT/flamethrower…those ai cant handled weapons.
