    AI Team is most useless AI in universe

    I am playing through a new character (using the AI teammates) and am wondering why I ever started to replay this game.

    I am doing the Faction Missions for Mads and went to the hospital to find the settler guy. I put my guys near the chopper (as I had left them outside for backup and after the cut scene they magically appeared next to me) and went to find the Sentinel office. As I am making my way there I notice one of the blue triangles on my mini map is running back and forth against the side of the building, nowhere near the helicopter a 100m away. I get to the office, the bad guys show up and immediately start shooting that guy (turns out it was FIxit). He almost immediately gets shot and taken out. I tell the other two they are cleared hot, as I am in some heavy combat and want assistance. They both yell battle cries and proceed to crawl towards the building at a snail's pace. Over and over I try to spam the Cleared Hot command but because you have to press a different button to access that menu I constantly shift my inventory from the grenades I need to other things hampering my own efforts. Meanwhile they constantly yell they are going to kick *** and consistently do nothing.
    I eventually clear the guys on my level and heal myself and then notice that all the enemy has instantly decided that there is nothing wrong. Again I spam get some and they yell battle cries and do nothing. They have entered the building by now but shoot one guy and bypass the others to climb the stairs (one does this while the other is still by the door) so that they can presumably attack a guy on the third floor. More enemy show up and start shooting me. I am screaming and pleading that they help me. They continuously assure me they are seconds away from unleashing God's glory on the enemy and yet STILL do nothing. I heal Fixit myself and he immediately runs off out of the building. I again spam help me! help me! He as well yells let's get it on and runs away from the building!

    In all my years of playing video games (I am 47) I have NEVER seen such crappy team AI in a very long time. The only games that I know of that comes close is Rainbow Six Lockdown (2006, another UBIpaymemoney game) or Daikatana (2000, Eidos games). Even Wildlands teammates were better than these sacks of useless potatoes.

    The next update better fix this crap. This game is embarrassing for so many reasons that if it was my child I would euthanize it and obliterate it from the Earth before it could infect other good people with it's uselessness.
    You didn't have to say that last part. That's such a horrible thing to say, should've just stopped at embarrassing. But I agree about the AI to an extent, last time I played Breakpoint the sync-shots didn't work. And how they are able to be right in the enemies face and remain undetected looks so ridiculous.

    LOL, even I wouldn't have gotten to that extreme but I feel that he wanted to make a solid point and he got the point across best he could.

    I can respect that.

    Hi there.
    This morning I saw the XBOX store, and I noticed that a new version of Ghost recon breakpoint appeared with the logo "optimized for X / S series".

    also with a new cover.

    the query is if you have any information about it.

    You will come to learn and embrace the word "Soon" mostly given by any UBI employee and most of us now when someone wants news about something you have seen, even if on their website or social media platforms.

    Oh and the definition of that may vary by a mile or the distance between Earth and the Moon... or perhaps even Pluto, even though it is not a planet anymore.

    Just overly optimistic?

    In their efforts to make them clever, all they succeeded in doing, was making them more stupid than ever. And yet, frustratingly, they’ve been given simple fixes for this, time and time again. Yet someone in the company clearly refuses to accept how poor they are and keeps stamping their foot in a tantrum, sticking their fingers in their while they shout ‘la la la, not listening!’

    Well, plenty of discussions and arguments can be had as to why they suck they way they do but the bottom line is that they will never lift a finger to do what is necessary because of the excuse of how hard it is to do so in an open world so lame/mediocre is good enough to hit that check mark.

    Then you didn't play Wildlands, right? because no offence, but both are heinous the only advantage that BP has over WL is that at least you have two squads in WL, you can define their roles with their weapons and they have unique perks like support and anti-tank to help the player. In WL is just horrible and if you are in the drone screen the squadmates won't shoot at the enemy unless ordered or in combat.
