*Possible Spoilers* A.I. Improvements

Post » Wed Dec 02, 2015 11:09 am

So I will admit, I am a huge Bethesda fan and I am just as disappointed as Pete Hines that stuff is getting leaked, but I have peaked at that elusive leaked gameplay video (no story spoilers for me, just gameplay) and I approve very much so. Of course I can't leak anything, but to those who haven't seen it... Wow...

The number one glaring thing I noticed was that it seems, SEEMS, that combat AI has been improved. I saw dumb-dumb Super Mutant hiding in a door frame and peak firing around it to land a few nice hits on the PC. I am not for sure, but based upon the direction of the enemies, I also saw some evidence of flanking.

Now mind you, the PC was absolutely wrecking the mutants, so until we see an 'even' fight, we can't know for sure how AI will accurately react to the PC.

Besides AI I saw solid shooters mechanics, the new loot system (real-time) in action, and a bunch of dead mutants. It was great. I know some other threads have addressed this footage already, but I just wanted to point out the AI and how it reacted.

Agreed, if "super easy" is going to be THAT easy, I may change my difficulty to just easy, lol.

I greatly prefer this AI to the one that always strafed back and forth across a door frame and took pot shots at you. FOUND YOU!!!

What I wonder is... Since we can shoot through walls with a perk can enemies with certain guns shoot at us through walls? That would be pretty cool.

I do hope the AI is better! In skyrim you could kill an entire crowded room of bandits with a bow and they wouldn't have any idea what was going on.

I believe the Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) and combat is way more improved than in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, because Bethesda Game Studios hired a employee from Bungie to develop a brand new combat system from scratch from the ground up and also had help from iD Software for the Artificial Intelligence (A.I.).

So do people still think that the Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) and combat will svck in Fallout 4?

When I first read that Bethesda Game Studios hired a employee from Bungie to develop a brand new combat system from scratch from the ground up for Fallout 4. I had a feeling it would all end up getting improved.

Is this honestly a surprise to anyone?

People are naive about a lot of things with Fallout 4 still, some people really just will believe whatever they want to believe.

For example, making comparisons of Fallout 4 to Fallout 3 on some specific aspects of Fallout 4 is stupid. You should always compare a Bethesda game with the one before it on technical aspects such as A.I., graphics, animations, etc.

Now if we are talking Story, weapons, crafting, etc, yea compare it directly to Fallout 3, that makes sense. Anyway I am done.

The Spanish speaker was on easy from the look of things. The guy who was talking over his own playthroug with coments about how he was replaying fights to avoid story or suprises and he was not going to open or loot everything because of things he found was on normal. Not sure a about the guy playing his own music way too loud.
