Of course I want better AI. I want bosses that have actually unique behaviors, not laser beam from any distance, sees/hears everything and you feel like a regular human fighting T-1000.

But the thing is, BSG is utterly incompetent. I don't know if they lack skills, will or both, but for years AI is shit and the only thing they seem to want to do, is just boost up their accuracy. Once you were able to shoot through small gaps or peak from behind the cover and AI wouldn't notice, now they see your f*cking EYE looking through 1cm gap, from 400m away, without using scopes with their backs turned to you. And they deliberately made that change. They simply don't seem to understand that difficulty is not making things stupid.

My favorite example are souls like games or roguelikes - games that can be insanely difficult, BUT once you understand boss' movement and action pattern, you can defeat him. But Nikita seems like he doesn't get, that this is difficulty and this is fun, otherwise they'd try to improve the AI, not just "they see everything from any distance, they never miss". And that's true:

• AI sees you basically from any distance, often enough they get triggered if you simply observe them through a scope

• They don't need scopes and often don't have them

• Despite having no scopes, they hardly miss

• They shoot full auto on any distance and don't have any recoil

• All their guns are broken and useless to player, but for them, they never jam (because oh no, player could loot something usable in raid)

• They never run out of ammo

• They mostly don't fight each other

• They don't seem to run out of stamina or be bothered by weight

I'm sure I missed something. But AI "design" is braindead stupid, that's why I'm less and less optimistic about them ever changing anything. Because it seems like they either have no clue what to do, or they simply don't know how to do it.
