GuardianAngel 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Oh, yah, Â could you ECP guys explain to us how the AI suppressing fire works? I still don't get exactly what the AI does from the description that you gave us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commando84 0 Posted May 10, 2005 supressive fire is when you fire machinegun against enemies and the enemies duck for cover i think Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crassus 0 Posted May 10, 2005 Just a guess, but perhaps they've been able to successfully get the AI to act in a more coordinated manner, by having the AI concentrate their fires on the player and his squad, pinning them down, while another team of AI flanks. Wouldn't that be somethin'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Acecombat 0 Posted May 10, 2005 I can testify that AI in ECP is bitchin smart as Zay wrote , myself. Recently while playing with ECP ive seen i was struggling to play/complete missions and the AI was always killing me and my squad as if we were some 16yr old kids with bb guns , i thought at first maybe i am in vet mode with Super AI turned on , but it wasnt the case so i turned ECP off and guess what we owned the AI pretty much. I dont know what magic has been woven here in to the AI but they are damn smart now and hard to beat. Should make for good co-ops session , but SP can get quite tough .

Commando84 0 Posted May 10, 2005 maybe no need to put in advanced cpu demanding a.i scripts then? just use ecp then love you guys if it works Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gandalf the white 0 Posted May 10, 2005 a typical example of covering fire: AI blindly fire at the position you'll likely be... fortunatly for me, I moved just in time... that was like... totally awesome something you couln't see is that they also fired MG bursts, and single shots... "peng" , missed... "peng" , missed, but they're getting warmer... it really helps to make you run from your car-cover, but when you do that you're as good as dead, unless you're a good runner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joshnolan225 0 Posted May 11, 2005 oh man, i sincerely hope that this comes out before i go to VMI, where games are a big no-no as a rat, this would make me happy, anyway, this is absolutly amazing work, is there a way that you would be able to implement ECP in conjunction with another mod, say, ECP+ Civil War, to see som graphically amazing civil war battles in which VMI cadets kick the dog crap out of the yanks?

Silent N Deadly 0 Posted May 17, 2005 Not really, it will be a long time before you'll see OFP2 on your computer screen. ECP is close, i guess just believe em, they aren't lying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silent N Deadly 0 Posted May 19, 2005 You could, but it would be more efficient if you chked 4 times a week. I have a strong feeling that it wont be this week, or next. Hope im wrong though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JGreyNemo 0 Posted May 19, 2005 I look forward to getting completely owned by AI. I get glimpses of smart AI occasionally using Baron's improved AI, with a couple of scripts. But alas, alack, I've never been "suprised" by an actual AI flanking that works. (Ai placement is the only thing mission makers can do to surprise me) (Ok I lie, there was this one time when a BDRM with a DSHK just rolled up to the side while I was picking off his AI compadres... then well... Retry Mission.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
