poesel Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I walked (!) down the northern canyon from the east with inf in sea cliffs and I had two bot tanks on the road below me. They didn't even react when I started dropping grenades on them. OTOH jby had some turrets much farther away in the stone rubble on the west side and they were happily shooting at me. I don't think this is intentional and its very annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was completely confused by that phenomenon today as I was trying to spot what I know suppose wass you and I couldn't figure out what the turrets were firing at yet the bots around me were entirely passive. Did you get a kick out of me spinning in circles trying to find you? Also, is it me or are the bots incredibly accurate with HEAT at a very long distance?

ClaytoniousRex Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Actually, it was intentional but probably a bad idea. In 1.2.9 turrets now spot only as well as anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poesel Posted July 3, 2007 Author Share Posted July 3, 2007 bboyle: yes, I did Thats the one thing so lovely about inf: you are slow as a snail, but when someone comes driving TO you its like christmas (well, if you have some grenades left over...)

Imperial Grunt Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I think the turrets are able to spot infantry at distance just like bot vehicles, especially Hermes and Bacchus Paladins. Hopefully this will be fixed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperial Grunt Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 And the bots can be very accurate with HEAT. They can nail dropships at distance with HEAT, which is almost impossible to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
