    Nest control point broken

    So on Alert LvL 2 The Nest Control Point doesn't seem to work anymore. I go and clear it out for the yellow hunt info, but when it comes time to prepare for the counter attack no enemies spawn and my reinforcements wont capture the point. if restarted the game i don't know howmany times. fast traveled a crap ton too back and forward, but nothing seems to fix the issue. anyone else having problems like this?

    Check your map for associated activities. These will be indicated by a red line segment between the control point and said activities. Then clear ALL that you find.

    This remedy is effective if you ever get the 'allies unavailable' notification. However, it may also destabilize the stoppage in your situation.

    Your control point should remain neutral in the interim, and the reinforcements should despawn if you exceed their rendering range in pursuit of said activities. You should then be able to repeat the procedure for the defense phase.

    So of coarse as soon as i put up this in the forum it decides to make me a liar and work. I just shut the game down for awhile and just now went to try it again to record video... yeah it just works now. go figure.

    This happened to me too - standing around for ages waiting for a counter attack that never happened.

    What I found was that the enemies who were counter attacking had stayed at their spawn point, so I had to go to them and take them out to complete the take over.

    It seems that there's a problem of enemies getting distracted.

    I found that I had to go on the other side of the park in front of the Nest and the enemies were engaged with another faction.

    In the end they went so far away from the CP that I was worried it would reset.

    I think this has to do with the new AI programming. This happens at the No Hope Hotel checkpoint as well. There's either one or two enemies who run around to the back of the hotel and just stand there pointing their guns in the air. I always have to run around the back and take out the group of random, roaming enemies that spawn on the way and then finally take the stragglers out before the next phase of the takeover starts.

    The new AI programming also gets in the way when doing world activities like territory control, civilian executions, and broadcast takeovers. The enemies can see further now, so they focus on a nearby activity or random JTF patrols and you end up having to chase them for 5 blocks just to complete the event. It's really a beneficial improvement and not frustrating at all (sarcasm).

    Hello UbiBlush,

    Here's a video of the No Hope Hotel checkpoint issue I have every time I take it over. There are always one or 2 enemies camped around the back of the hotel and they do not move. This was the first time I experienced it; now I know to go behind the hotel. I cut the video to the point where I killed the last visible enemy to where I found the enemy. I did not speed up the footage because I want UBI/Massive to see how much time their AI changes waste. Maybe they could program a command for them to push after a certain amount of inactivity.
