Patrol needs balance of damage of bots. Bots are incredible power with relics like helicons,punishers, nemesis. Legendary retchers are overpower 1 shot kill half of build 14k-16k PS player. These weapons should have in bots hands lower damage or replace these weapons with others like hurricanes or Aspects, AAGun Starfall.
Next problem is bots shoot on nearest player through wreck of wall when helicopters go in invisible, will be good if bots shoot on last known position of their target and not shoot from back and through terrain on others player -, bots with Gaijin, thyrsus, cannons, scoprions - these bots spotted cheat and shoot through the walls and wrecks or terrain.
You know, I always wondered why you never see bots using rockets of any type, not even trombones. Same for flamethrowers (except in some raids). If bots used rockets, especially homing rockets, flocks would triple from the price they’re at now ($6000 on pc).
in raids some enemies, and bosses, use both the homing missiles and flutes. the bots with flutes seem to have immunity to bullets because i cannot for the life of me shoot down their missiles and they ALWAYS hit me with them unless i use the spark or the argus.
helicons in and of themselves are busted. on bots they are absurdly broken and getting hit by a single volley from these stupid things take out alot of my armor and often times my weapons to. heck they are often times enough to take out two train plows on top of dealing some hp damage to my build.
the dual retcher bots are a massive middle finger to players. the accuracy on these bots are absurd and ridiculous. if i dont take these out in one shot i am most likely dead. retchers seem to target me the most out of any bot and i have no idea why. i remember we used to have different bots. we used to have a icebox bot with some aspects on it and a bot with mandrakes (those got taken out due to complaints from other players for how broken they were). not sure why the icebox one got removed though.
no they dont. i just got out of a match where the entire enemy team was focused solely on me. how do i know this? cause every fricken bot bypassed my team mates and came straight for me… my team mates were shooting at them and they just aimed their cannons and punishers and shot solely at me and me only. every one of my team mates were out in the open for these bots to shoot and they only shot at me. and no i couldnt hide behind wrecks cause theyd just shoot through them.
bots lock onto me for a solid 4 - 6 seconds after i go invisible. so even when i trigger invisibility they still shoot me out of it then relock onto me again. i tested this several times and yeah bots dont seem to detarget you unless you are behind cover or something. the problem here is as soon as the invisibility wears off they immediately target you again, especially if you are a heli.
dont forget to that scorpion bots shoot through your ENTIRE BUILD and it doesnt just stop when it hits your cabin.
ive had cannon bots fire a single volley from 2 cannons and knock off both my weapons mounted on shoot through parts right behind the cabin despite the shot hitting my cabin dead on. i tried this in the garage with my own builds and i came to the conclusion that they gave bots overpen and more powerful explosions. no shot should be able to degun you if it hits the cabin dead on and your guns are behind the cabin.
yeaaaaah same…
i hated the mandrake bots to. at least 3 of their shots were guaranteed to hit me everytime they targeted me. it was so frustrating to fight them.
when i shot a mandrake 0 of my shots hit the target. instead they would hit the area around the target, even if the target was stationary and didnt move an inch. at least 90 - 95% of my shots wouldnt land and would hit directly beside the target i was aiming for. bots however?! at least 3 of its shots were guaranteed to hit me per mandrake! so your taking 3 - 6 shots of mandrake bullets. one time i got one shotted by a mandrake and every bullet, thats 5 bullets per mandrake, so 10 total, hit me directly on my cabin. these bots are stupidly busted.
the worst part is the devs purposefully made it so bots intentionally miss their shots with the starfall so they can target parts over your build, including your weapons, with starfall fire as it always gets full damage if the bullet explodes over your build rather than hit your build normally. they did this in events.
I agree, except for the part about the helicopters. What you’re describing—them chasing you while you’re invisible—was true a year ago. Nowadays, in matches, I mostly see that if players activate invisibility, the bot fires immediately, but the shot doesn’t hit the helicopter; instead, it veers off to the side or passes right through them to hit another player elsewhere. There have even been times when I was behind a rock and a piece of my build just broke off without me seeing any actual hit.
I don´t saw bots with AAgun Starfall. They only have Thyrsus or gaijin but when someone go in invis when they fire from these weapons their shoot hit others player and bots don´t need aim. Shoot just go in space and hits nearest players.
as i said this is in events. if they brought this to pve or patrol vs ai im sure everyone would scream at the devs…
players are absolute jerks man. at times theyll do this on purpose. cloak up or fly right near you so that shotgun bots target you. theyll even attract them, go invisible and force the shotgun bots to target other players.
and idk what your experience has been with helis but when i use mine it doesnt matter if i go into invisibility or not they will always come after me. if im on a heli as soon as the cloak wears off i am instantly targeted again. if i go around a building or any cover they will chase me relentlessly until im dead or land. doesnt matter what weapons i use its all fair game to them.
Yeah, I love the opinions of those guys who zip around the map with a rocket launcher while invisible, or camp way off in the distance—or somewhere out there hide behinds hills—as snipers. Shoot with snip weapon its not so easy how it look in game you must know distance and wind or you shoot only air. They should have Adele shout in game "Hello from the other side "
