Most brainless AI

[pffh]

Call of Duty: World at War. Seriously, the AI in Gears 2 is glorious compared to the idiots in World at War.
I've seen Nazi soldiers run past three of my allies, not more than a foot away from them, to get to me. The fact that the Nazi soldier ignored them bugged me enough but the fact that my team didn't even flinch at his presence killed me inside.
This wasn't a one off either, I've seen it happen on multiple occasions, right before I had to turn it off, for fear of breaking my TV.

GOD I hate that AI. In the last mission I was walking out of one of the buildings in front of the stairs and guess what I see a nazi run up to another soldier about to stab. But then as I walk out of the building a split second before he stabs he turns and runs towards me.

Friendly ai seems to be very tough to pull off, Gears 2's friendlys are pretty moronic but I think Halo 3's marines take the cake, they've run me over on several occasions and trying to operate the turret of a warthog while they drive is a one way ticket to an early grave.

Definitely Halo 3's from what I've experienced. A marine decided to laser me once, when I wasn't anywhere near an enemy. That's the last time I gave them a laser. >_>

Dead Rising Survivors. Complete and utter imbisciles. At least some of them give you the option of holding their freaking hands, but if you have multiple survivors with you. that isn't a viable option.

i hate when the AI in L4D stand outside the saferoom door and i walk all around the saferoom shouting at them knowing they can't hear me. then they get pounce by a hunter and they had like one life so i have to pick them up and then the horde comes and after that bill gets in the safe with that smug look like he just did something worth while.

also i hate when the decide to pick someone up when someone else is getting murdered by an SI.



it felt good to get all that out.

I am seriously looking at this thread with a sad, sad eye. Everybody's mentioning freshly baked games such as Halo, Gears 2, RE5 and so on, with rare exeptions. You may all complain, but hear this: You're all a bunch of whiny 13 year olds.

If you complain about the allies in Gears 2, you have never seen truly stupid AI. Heck I almost want to say that it barely exist in relatively known games nowadays. Come back when you have plown through "The World is not enough"(Ai was about: Shoot when bond is seen; run from grenades) on PS or any enemy or friend from Jedi Knight.

The AI for goldeneye was worse. It was shoot when bond is seen; run from grenades with the addition of get stuck in doors/stairs a lot.

I played Painkiller on a friends computer becasue I dont have a rig, and the enemies didnt even attack. The same goes for Onechanbara: Bikini Sammurai Squad. Also, in older RPGs, enemies will use the same attack over and over even though my ally may be imperviouse to the attack they are useing.

Mercenaries 2. I once did a test to see how long I could stand in the middle of a street with people trying to attack me without being shot. It took them about 30 seconds to even shoot me once. They're really... really fucking bad.

Also I would say Resident Evil 5 has horrible AI as well. Trust me on this one, if you're playing RE5 without an online partner, prepare to die. A whole lot.

I would say the Marines in Halo 3 but in Bad Company Sarge, Sweetwater and Haggard are complete spoons.

Sheva, From RE5 god she's tarded.

I'm gonna go ahead and agree that Mercenaries 2 has the MOST retarded AI ever. If you've played it, you know what I mean.

Finging bad AI isn't hard. In fact its easy as hell, and any dispute you have on which is the worst AI is just going to be comparing notes without reaching a decisive conclusion. It would be much harder and more interesting to find good AI.

Well, I think all FPS AI's will have their dumb parts. I keep hearing about Far Cry 2's AI, but when I played it, I thought the AI did a pretty good job of rushing and flanking if they saw or heard me. Of course, I could rush up and knife a couple of them at times, but considering the fact that it takes quite a few bullets to kill I didn't think the AI was too bad.
The AI I absolutely was disgusted at was the people in Condition Zero: Deleted Scenes. It's the single player missions that came along with Counter-Strike: Condition Zero. Your teammates will literally crouch right in front of an enemy and start shooting at him point blank.

Three little words Left 4 Dead. The AI has to be driven by a drunken chimp no Zoey I am at 50 health I do not need your medkit, no Louis I don't need you to use your pipebomb now everything is nearly dead anyway, no Francis we do not need you to pick the hunting rifle for the Hospital in No Mercy, and god damnit no Bill I DO NOT NEED YOU TO SHOOT THE WITCH ON SIGHT!

Morrowind. The escort missions were so frustrating that I always turned difficulty all the way down just so I could pick off the wildlife before my companion could kill themselves with the nearest cliff racer.

All AI, because they don't have brains.

Are you sure you're not talking about people? Because as far as I've seen, the AI doesn't use pipebombs or molotovs, Francis typically takes the shotgun, and none of them will shoot zombies that are not trying to attack you. As in they will stay away from witches and refuse to shoot zombies that are just standing around.

Are you sure you're not talking about people? Because the AI in L4D don't use pipebombs or molotovs, Francis doesn't take the hunting rifle (Zoey does) and none of the AI will shoot the witch unless she is already startled. In fact, they refuse to shoot any zombie that is not already hostile (as in they ignore the zombies that are just vomiting and standing around).
Whoops. Double post.
