WZFF - AI Targeting

I want to know – how does the AI prioritize targets? Because I just played a game where the two banshee raiders and additional enemies hunted me down relentlessly. I would spawn and the two banshees would spawn kill me. Is it just a bug or does 343i just hate me for some reason?

They shoot to kill. Some are not good at it cough grunts. Some are good at it cough banshees.

this page should help you understand why this happens

So I am to understand that instead of creating real, beatable difficulty, Halo 5’s AI cheats a little bit in order to fabricate the illusion of difficulty? I believe that. I absolutely would not put it past 343I to put something so base in their game.

Halo is on that listen under the FPS tab

also, if you’ve never been on tvtropes be careful, it can be addictive to look up everything.

I appreciate you taking the time to help me understand why it’s so frustrating. While I still do get frustrated, at least I know my accusations of bullcrap are most definitely grounded.

I absolutely -Yoinking!- HATE the WZFF AI. 343, how is a mortar supposed to shoot an air vehicle out of the sky? The AI in halo 5 are way to precise and smart. They can look through walls (Not joking, test it out yourself), Shoot you out of the air with a wraith or just plain Light rifle you at the dead center of your head. Man, the computers need to -Yoink- up once in a while and miss. Oh and the knights will calculate your velocity to find out where you are gonna be in the next second (if you are moving) and fire ahead of time- all in the fraction of a second! You run into the projectile and there is NO WAY of avoiding it! Why give knights Heartseekers when they are so damn precise with a base cannon? This is even more OP considering that they don’t need to charge up before firing. Ugh! This just makes knights UNPREDICTABLE. Remember that word? Yeah, that’s the thing that ruined Halo 4’s campaign.Sigh Bottom line: No one likes to get Outmatched or Outsmarted. So Fix the AI. Actually, screw that. Shut down the whole game for a damn day and compress those files! Delete the ones not required. Man you guys have a long To-Do list so I would say, take your time and get your priorities right.

Sometimes it goes above and beyond in it’s nonsense. It was the final round, two tanks are shooting warden, I’m on foot, a good 40 feet behind the tanks, in semi-cover, and warden, RUNS, he doesn’t shoot his beam at me, he RUNS past the tanks, past everything, and swords me down. It was the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen in WZFF. I was shooting him with a battle rifle. lol

The best part was this got the warden completely owned as he was now out in the open surrounded on all sides. Of course I’m not gonna get credit tho, seeing as he sent me straight to hell himself.

He saw you… The weak, and injured animal… Then he struck!

A banshee killed both of us hiding behind cover in two different areas, about a split second after each other (Pew, pew were dead).

I believe the AI is doing something different on everyones screen. example all of us spartans were getting owned (killed) by warden but he was mainly targeting me. I mean every time i peek at him from behind cover, he looks at me personally and winds up that big black ball for me, simultaneously while other spartans are vanishing. How can this be? 8 spartans trying to kill warden, and he is dealing damage to everyone at once?

It’s just known as being cheap. Like a boss in Street Fighter.

Sounds like when I used a Wraith req to use on two Waeden Mythics.

As I closed in on one Warden, in cover from the other, I saw two tanks shooting my target. I put my wraith quite close to the tanks already there and shot once, and missed. The tanks were inflicting damage on him. Next thing I know I’m getting EMPd by him shooting his eye beams at me and me only for a good half minute while the tanks are free to shoot him. Even got it recroded. Can’t link now though as it’s too much of a hassle to link through a phone.
