Red5 Did a Great Job with Mob Intelligence

I continue to be impressed with the mob AI in Firefall, particularly the humanoid AI.    

The humanoid mobs will actually adjust their tactics to best counter yours and in many cases will take cover to avoid attacks and even attempt to flank your location as opposed to just blindly running at you.  

It has certainly made PvE in this game a lot more interesting and fun.

Even some of the creatures seem to have a certain level of intelligence in how they move in for an attack and will actually follow you for quite some time if you attempt to flee.  

 

I really went into this game with low expectations but continue to find myself really enjoying most aspects of it.

    I do, as well. I particularly like Thumpers (they just fall out and Thump!), the graphics, the jetpacks, and all that, but when I got to playing this with a buddy of mine, the game did surprise by upping the ante and being more enjoyable.

    Yeah, had the same observation for the AI in this game, better than the other games' AI, IMO. It's vastly improved from a year back, and that's good for FireFall.

    I just played FireFall after being referred to it by a friend. We're playing with 3 other people and yes we're currently having good fun and progress. It's awesome.

    Well, yes, the AI at least does not just stand around there. Way better than monsters who just stand around taking all the damage.

    Guess it was just a glitch that I experienced the other day, xp for free since the monster wasn't attacking me. :p  but have to agree overall, ai here gets the player more involved.

    I'm glad the AI has been observed to have improved. But I'm more concerned with the actual people I'm playing with...act like good AI!
