AirwolfPL 0 Posted October 1, 2003 Check this out: ftp://download.gamershell.com/pub....ler.ZIP I'm impressed with AI's behaviour in this game. It would be cool to see such AI in OFP2... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr burns 132 Posted October 1, 2003 Amazing! I want to play this game now AI´s behaviour in OFP 2 should really be something like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpeedyDonkey 0 Posted October 1, 2003 Yes it's good. Btw did you see the fish in the water? Cool  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joltan 0 Posted October 1, 2003 And the beach, now that looked nice! BIS make OFP2 min 2GHz and DX9 and give us something like that with a big environement! Guess Far Cry will be just another boring shooter, but a good looking one for sure! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tamme 0 Posted October 1, 2003 IIRC Far Cry will be just another generic shooter, but it's AI is something to look forward to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gollum1 0 Posted October 1, 2003 The AI might be unscripted, but I think the conditions and environments have been made perfect for the AI in the video. That Osprey helo will probably lower its troopers into a lake if you try it in a jungle. Pretty nice anyway...the "kill reactions" were good. They can make it look sooo nice and dramatic in a rolling demo, they´ll probably be a lot more stupid in a real demo (pointing at a wall when calling for reinforcements etc. using large formations indoors etc...) I´m looking forward to it...too bad that my 1,1 ghz won´t be able to handle it that well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baron Hurlothrumbo IIX 0 Posted October 1, 2003 Very impressive AI Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted October 1, 2003 If the AI is unscripted how come every time someone was shot the person next to them reached to their back and pulled out their gun, before seeking cover? Anyways the water looks pretty but there's a very arcadey look to it that doesn't appeal to me. That one set in South America where you go to investigate a kidnapping or something (yes I know, very vague) looked like it would appeal to me more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadow 6 Posted October 1, 2003 I'm with Placebo. Looks very arcade-ish. And you have to be blind to not see all that scripted events   like scratching his erm back, the conversations during idle, calling in the re-enforcements, where the Osprey hovers to unload soldiers etc I'm disappointed. I had hopes. Nothing more than what we currently have in OFP IMO, only wrapped up with lots of eyecandy. I'm more envious to see Söldner in action, and 10 times more interested to see how OFP2 will be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tamme 0 Posted October 1, 2003 Yes, Söldner. I saw some new screenies and it looked much much better than the early ones I saw before. It might be an interesting experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hellfish6 7 Posted October 1, 2003 It's not bad - but I don't think I'll buy it. As has been said earlier, it's too Arcadish. I am not a fan of games where you can take five hits, find a medipack and go back into the battle. This game looks like that will be a feature. After watching it a second time, I can't say that I'm too impressed with it. I mean, idle animations? They had those in Jagged Alliance 2, IIRC. That's not impressive. In fact, I think it would be pretty easy to do. If unit X is idle for Y amount of time, an animation sequence is selected from list Z. The squad tactics aren't particularly good - I think OFP's is better (I didn't see any teammates flanking anything in this video). And their bounding overwatch wasn't exactly text book either - one guy would move forward, stop in a sandy place with no cover for himself, despite the fact that there was a palm tree and a couple of big rocks nearby. The vocal commands and taking cover were pretty good though. I like how the orders were shouted, unlike OFP's radio orders, which I am not too fond of anymore.

Harnu 0 Posted October 1, 2003 I'll have to agree with you Hellfish. I just watched the trailer. Everything is pretty and shiny, but it doesn't seem all that great. Too arcade-ish for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
denoir 0 Posted October 1, 2003 I'm more envious to see Söldner in action, and 10 times more interested to see how OFP2 will be. My interest in Söldner is extremely limited. It seems very arcade, with a nice health bar and all. Plus the effects they are advertising are very questionable like when hand grenades making meter deep craters. No thanks. Not for me.

ralphwiggum 6 Posted October 1, 2003 nothing that tops OFP ai. when enemy shoots you, they take their guns out. OFP AIs do that. taking covers and reinforcements might be slightly better, but not by much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gollum1 0 Posted October 1, 2003 Agree with Denoir, Söldner is always mentioned in these forums but I don´t get what the high expectations are about. Standard walled-in maps, a health bar (now that says something), superhero-style action...plus the game looks really console-ey. (?) Not for me at all, but to each his own...

Heatseeker 0 Posted October 1, 2003 Well probably because they are using this gorgeous game engine to do another boring shooter, im guessing you would all feel diferent if it were a military simulation no? good a.i., great graphics, big islands, large view distance, jungles and swamps, vehicals and swimable water, this engine would do a great military simulation . And OPFs a.i. isnt all that great anymore, they are just very acurate and can see throu each others eyes, vegetation, buildings, etc . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
