ive noticed that my soldiers are too close to each other. The formation options dont work, they dont spread out. as a result of this glitch/bug, they get wiped pretty often. Am I the only one who has this problem?
They do spread out if they are following you. If you order them to stay in place, they will be one on top of each other no matter what formation.
I have read that they are implementing individual orders soon, so you can move soldiers to static positions and have them hold…at least I assume that is how it will work.
Formation only work (rarely work) when the bot follow you
I find they do spread out once you set an area defense order- to a degree.
I assume area defense has to be trained per building, because while they spread out in some cases, there are Berlin objectives where all of the bots get into the bot pile of they’re ordered to defend.
The “folowing exact command” behavior is also ruined…if I command them to hold position in the house, some memeber stay out and aim somewhere, instead of take cover inside. I don’t know who made this AI, but this one is far way worse than in any other game…
Im pretty sure they used to spread out even when I orderd them to defend area. I cant order them to overwhelm enemy positions because when they rush to it, they are running too damn close to each others. What is the point in having the formations comands if it doesnt work? How do I get into cantact with the developers? I cant keep on playing like this. All I do now is leroy jankins in to the enemy while my soldiers are lagging behind, I used to do that in COVER of my own soldiers (command my bots to rush a position and follow behind them). Any little finese there was is now gone.
