Aliens tougher than MP players?

Post » Thu Dec 31, 2009 1:20 pm

Hey,

A funny thought I had while playing SP on SS difficulty today was how difficult the Aliens were to kill, especially if you don't resort to sniping and assassinations. What's funny is that I find the SP campaign more difficult than playing MP online lol

I keept getting killed over and over by Aliens but MP players are a lot easier.

Is Crytek AI smarter than real people? lol

People have complained about the AI but I have played both Veteran and the majority of SS and it's pretty good to be fair. Small hiccups like they won't attack you if you snipe them, they all stand there miles away and let you kill them, but for the most part they are pretty tough and I haven't seem them running in circle but I have seem them walking into walls but that was a couple weeks back before the patch and haven't seen that since.

I only hope they don't give the Ceph Feline's or else were all doomed.

They were only easy, cause they didn't shoot frequently and were scared of dying. Whereas from our perspective, this is a videogame and we don't care, Which is why caution is not exercised in MP.

Either the AI is smarter than people or people are dumber than AI.

I've seen that before.

All the guy has done is pick out a few moments in the entire 8+ hour campaign and made a 2min video.

In my experience the AI is not that bad, and the "issues" are the exception rather than rule.

Lol interesting perspective. Seems to be the latter.

AI in SS difficult is HARD in my opinion.

That's for balancing the game I'd assume. I die like every minute or two in Multiplayer, but only like every hour on SS. That's because the multiplayer and single player are very different. For example, if in Halo matchmaking, you were as strong as you are in Campaign, it would take a million shots to kill anybody, and it would be hard to play. I think that as far as multiplayer is concerned, it's important that people are relatively easy to kill. Because it wouldn't be fun if you had to empty an entire clip into a person to get a kill. I think that multiplayer characters could do with maybe a 10-25 percent increase in health, but everything in single player seems perfect to me. I think the big problem is just the "Host advantage" in multiplayer. That makes a very big difference, especially when it's as extreme as it is in Crysis 2.
