Hi All,
Sorry if this has been touched up but i cant find anything on it.
Past two days i have been blueprint hunting doing Control Points at Tier 3 and i have to say, good fun overall. difficult is hard as it should be but with some serious issues!
- Friendly AI is so dumb and suicidal its making it so hard to complete Tier 3. They need to be more tactical and stronger? they don't wear armor or possess anything like the elites do. Its a bit stupid, Higher the Tier level (higher the called in Friendly AI) should be, I think this will be a great idea instead of lowering the difficulty overall.
- You die a lot, that's fine hard difficulty gives great rewards, but when you die and outside of the CP zone and then your friendly AI randomly takes control, you don't receive the exp of the blueprint!? its so frustrating when you work hard getting to that position and just earn the Supply caches.. not rewarding enough anymore. Can this be fixed?
Thoughts?
Once you can deal with level 3 check points (CP), you will use friendly patrol as a cannon fodder. I kill 1 or 2 NPCs at start and then call for reinforcement, which means they will arrive just in time for the boss of first wave. Reinforcement AI is dumb as it can get caught in firefight with random enemy factions on the streets or get stuck due to random threat etc, however, they are good at tanking damage. Patrol leader might eventually die but you can usually revive him to keep the patrol active.
i noticed that the friendly npcs are utterly useless when you need them and when it's time to actually be utterly useless they take-over the damn thing by themselves while i'm respawning
i also enjoy it aside from this little issue.
that's also why i don't really engage in t4 CPs, wouldn't want to spend all that time and effort only to risk having some npcs ruin the reward at the end.
Don’t die. But seriously, this is a rare occurrence, unless you just die a lot. So, really not much to complain about other than your own game play? This has happened to me and it’s frustrating, but it was ultimately my fault that I died at the wrong time.Originally Posted by Kenhal Go to original post
Some control points are easier than others and some factions are more prone to rushing. I cleared 3 of them yesterday without even getting close to dying, then I did one that I died 5 times. I enjoy those challenges, but you will figure out which ones to stay away from if you don’t like it rough.![]()
Some odd moments..... when you re-spawn home after dying when you still have boss/tank/2npcs to kill at capturing stage and they suddenly capture it without having to defend... I feel because you are not actively in the zone area, the games economy system kicks in and skips alot mof the fighting, the enemies just disappear. its horrible right now.
That's wonderful to hear, but everyone has different builds and skill levels so that's not really a solid defense to my issues pointed out.Originally Posted by Birdman2796 Go to original post
The one I died on 5 times yesterday, all the enemies died and my allies disappeared. The CP icon was showing white, so no one was controlling it. All I did was go back and shoot the flare again and I took it. I was lucky this time, but either way I died and would have been my fault.Originally Posted by Kenhal Go to original post
