Had my 14 year old nephew helping me, who is quite good, and some of the battle chests in town center (plants) were just ridiculous and un-fun. We eventually got them, but the aim, and ridiculous skill of the AI is making it just not fun. Also, if I can't expect to be able to complete these solo, even if it takes very long, i will not go for them in the future. What happened to the mode where when a player joins you, it says 'your enemies grow stronger'...Damn but they are just as strong with even one player. While i expect them to increase in difficulty, realizing that you will never get some solo, ruins it for me. Why are the ai so strong, and we seem so weak. Also, even with the perk that increases foot soldier fire rate, it's pitiful.

Un-fun battle chests, ridiculous ai health..solo imossible for me it seems

Sorry to hear that you're still struggling with battle chests.
As I have mentioned elsewhere, I found Town Centre plants chest 4 very challenging, so I am glad to hear that you got it 🙂

Something I noticed about the AI in battle chests is that your team mates will play to your ability, so if you play poorly then they will too, whereas playing well will lift them up. Essentially your team reflect your skill level.
I don't know if that knowledge is helpful for winning, but once I realised this I stopped blaming my teammates when I lost. Except in PvP. In PvP if we lose it is always my team mates fault 😉

@YayHorseys Yeah nothing quite like starting it and being down 0-2 before you can even get to the statue. Also love love loved fighting on the beach and watching an AI chomper do what I would consider "dancing" with a scientist as it just never even attacked the scientist just rubbed up against it over and over until scientist blasted his face off. Absolute trash garbage.

What chompers and scientists get up to when they're enjoying some together time on the beach is none of our business, really.
Sorry. Couldn't resist. My mind just went there. 🤨

This is most disturbing...I'm screwed.

@ToastedSarnie I'm older, i didn't hone my skills on call of duty, more like PacMan! I will from now on look at my assigned AI, and apologize to them.

@YayHorseys Ah the days of going to Aladdin's castle and burning though all the quarters I could beg from my parents and grandparents to play Space Invaders, Defender, Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Galaxian, and more!

@YayHorseys Probably not much older if at all! Clue in ID, though not my ACTUAL age, I hasten to add! I remember the Commodore 64, black & white tvs, vinyl the first time around & rotary phones!! 😆 I think the AI should look to themselves for a warrior-type leader - the other team usually do all right!!! ☹
