Especially egregious in Chaos Waste, but a problem everywhere.
They’ll travel back to the beginning of the map if they even suspect a blightstormer might be out there somewhere.
And instead of saving an incapacitated player, they’ll walk right against you and stand still while a Ratling Gunner or a few slaves kill them.
Or they’ll go on a journey across the map to pick up ammo box instead of saving a downer player.
And when the party is pinned down by a Warpfire Thrower, of shooting it dead, they’ll run head first into the flame to get knocked back repeatedly until they die.
PLEASE FIX THE AI (or atleast acknowledge whether you’re aware of all these accumulated problems or not)
It happens especially egregiously when the ammo boxes are on seperate elevations from you I find.
Somehow elevation differences make the bots think it’s way closer than they think they are…not that it matters, their first priority should be rescuing players anyways.
This is only if you have pinged the ammo box but they are busy with specials, if you run ahead and after 5min you have killed the special they wanted to chase, they will travel back to pick up the item you have pinged 5min ago.
It often happens with blightstormers because you often cant kill the hiding blightstormer right away.
you ping ammo box → but bots chase blightstormer → blightstormer teleports away —> you and your bots cant kill him —> you run ahead to make progress → you shoot blightstormer 5min later —> bots will travel back to ammo box and leave you alone XD
because you often cant kill the hiding blightstormer right away.
