rua'anith Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 On the tac map you can give orders to the bots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toby Haynes Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Bot wrangling is a critical skill in 1-on-1 or 2-on-1 battles - if you don't organise the bots, they will either waste the heavy tanks, get all your dropships killed or otherwise ruin your master plans. Hull-down and Advance are the most useful commands for trying to take a position. Move is critical for placing bots in certain areas (think SAM and EWV units). The others - well play with them and see how things work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junglist Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Bot wrangling is one of the most satisfying/frustrating aspects to the game. Eventually all must wrangle or be crushed by the enemy's coordinated attack. A good way of improving your wrangling skills is to spend some time in a mercury to the rear of your forces, where you can safely give orders, deploy sensors, and survey the tac map. Also, at critical moments in the battle you can always take control of a lead unit to maximize the attack, leaving the mercury for later.

__Yossarian0815[jby] Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Stellar rat, to save you some frustration: when you lasso several bots, take care not to include deployables (techniaclly also bots), since your orders are then restricted to the possibilities of the deployables (only extract essentially) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
