Bot Intelligence
You cannot squad up with bots, if you could it would be awesome if you could direct them with commands, like defend a point in conquest, go capture a point etc ?
Are the bots getting any real battlefield tactical upgrades, dedicated to their role prowess ?
They are way too mindless & easy to defeat, they should be so much harder imho, the way they are now it's just a brainless turkey shoot.
Take the AI from Arma 3 for example, they can be tweaked to be more battle efficient than any other AI I know of, sure they have been worked on for over 20 years to perfect their abilities & sub abilities, the BF AI are still very BF2ish by comparison. Think of AIX mod from that time, if you ever played it.
Skill: Influences multiple sub-skills related to the AIs "intelligence". If the value is set too low, the AI will be dumb.
Precision: Influences sub-skills related to AIs precision. If the value is set too high, the AI will have a super human precision. Lower values result mostly in interesting fire fights.
Arma 3 AI Skill
I would really like to see some better AI updates for those who want to play PVE too against really hard to beat AI.
I see a lot of bot sitting in vehicles not doing anything, I jump in start driving, jump back out to let the bots take control and they just sit there idling, which is listed below so hopefully this helps.
These are the pending updates listen in the hub.
AI:
- AI bots can now respond to ammo, healing, and pickup requests.
- Fixed an issue that caused AI repairing friendly vehicles to be less responsive than intended.
- Fixed cases where AI attempted to take cover in ways that left them static or unresponsive. Bots will now correctly move toward locked objectives in King of the Hill.
- Fixed instances where AI soldiers could take too long to find a valid path to their objective, causing them to remain stationary.
- Improved AI responsiveness when performing revives.
- Improved AI revive logic and movement to make their actions more consistent and reliable.
