I read the reviews --- AI is weak?

    I enjoy Metro 2033's AI though. It's not F.E.AR. 1, but it's good.

    How's Last Light's?

    I found Ranger Normal's AI incredibly weak, but Regular Hardcore was much better.

    Most people say they're weaker, and in some sense it probably is. I think they're good though, dont stop it from trying out the game.

    human AI is borderline retarded even on RH. The game is still good though.. so don't get me wrong. MLL is still my GotY so far ;D

    If you want not - Hollywood - slow mo of a game, stick to F.E.A.R. otherwise, Metro will give you awesome atmosFEAR, presentation and detail to small things.

    Thanks for the input guys! Yeah, will probably buy the Ranger Mode DLC then.

    Nah, I'm not a fanboy; no worries there. The F.E.A.R. series died once the first of the sequels went out anyway. They were good, impressive even but compared to the first one the sequels were colossal failures.
     
  7. Define "weak".

    There are forcefully conscripted lazy soldiers that talk about how they have been forced to help with labor and then proceed to discuss ways to make it look like they are working without actually doing so while being scared shitless about monsters in the dark.

    Yeah, they are totally well trained military specialists that will put up a decent fight.

    Komodo has a good point indeed. But some of them were rediculously skilled a dodging bullets! :lol:
    I'd be spraying after them whilst waving my gun back and forth to the left and right, and they'd just be crouched down and doing some weird gypsy-dance, swinging from side to side, lowering and raising their heads :lol:

    Well when going on full on stealth....I just wish that their reaction sequeences will be better especially if you are just afew feet in their faces.

    But for me...the AI is good. Not excellent but good.

    I remember when I mucked up my stealth, I was horrified to see the whole place being on high alert coupled with the arrival of armored reinforcements...that was scary.
     
  13. They were fine to me as well. But if you listen to the banter they occasionally spout, you'll find out they are essentially good for nothing.

    They could have better retreat/defence logic. But I found them pretty good.

    The detection reminds me a lot of Far Cry 3 without an indicator arrow and instead of bushes, you have shadows.

    2033's AI was sometimes uncannily good at instantly, telepathically disclosing the location of the guy who hit someone in the leg with a silenced revolver to everybody else in the level. Last Light's AI sometimes just doesn't give a damn that a guy just crouch-walked right in front of them, but in combat they are actually really fun and somewhat challenging, blinding you with lights, flanking, and calling for help.

    I'm not a hardcore gamer by any means, but I thought the AI in LL is pretty decent. I've encountered much worse AI in Aliens: Colonial Marines.

    Hmm so AI is not exceptional but it's not bad either. Thanks!
