dayglow 2 Posted October 11, 2010 BI's own SP mission points this out so well. Played through Trial By Fire again and the squad that I was with (you play as a Automatic Rifleman, not squad leader) got ripped apart by the APC that shows up in town. So many buildings and other cover for the AI, but they stay in the open, even after by the mission design they call out the approaching APC and ask for air support. You're lucky if any AI survives this encounter. I think I've only completed this mission a few times with no more than 1 or 2 AI surviving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pulverizer 1 Posted October 11, 2010 Basically, all AI behaviour when hopelessly outgunned could be improved, against tanks, attack helicopters, artillery, sniper... They should run or hide properly (eg, inside a house), anything is better than lie down in the open and wait for certain death. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ffur2007slx2_5 11 Posted October 12, 2010 Yeah, I also have the same feeling. When you use town generator model, Ai team won't join in the battle inside the town! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JojoTheSlayer 35 Posted October 12, 2010 If you put anti tank infantry on "hold fire" and wait for them/tell them to target tanks they will usually target the tank and say "eyes on target" or similar. At that point tell them to open fire and all AT guys seem to use there anti tank weapon strait away. Just remember they need to be kneeling or standing to use there anti tank weapon. Just a tip. Still agree to some degree with the OP though :). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
