The AI is mega broken right now (PVE)

[Eightball]

They are basically already locked on to you through walls and are doing the equivalent of pre-firing you, because they are shooting the moment your arm comes around the corner, before you can even see them. Because they are already aiming at you through the walls. It's on ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ridiculous difficulty right now, bushwhacking is also back harder than it's ever been even tho they fixed it years ago.

Kaban just tried shooting me for 2 mins through a straight flat wall, no windows. Every AI is auto locked onto me through walls. The moment any AI has LOS to me, it's shooting me.

I'm also convinced that when you loot a body, or use CMS / Surv12, that 2-5 scavs spawn and immediately path to you.

I have 2400 hrs in the game and it has been a loooong time since i've seen the AI this broken. 1.0 ready guys.

Why do they insist on messing with the AI like this every patch? Like, they are so notorious for messing with AI settings and making the game almost unplayable with it. You'd think they'd have learned by now how to tweak it properly. Absolute incompetence.

Game has always been this way, you cant just run and gun right away. Get better weapons, gear, ammo etc and learn the maps and where to and not to go. Youll realize some basic mistakes you are making eventually....Maybe.

What, like loot a corpse? It literally spawns them on you when you do. It's not something i'm doing wrong bud.

It's also nothing i'm doing wrong that the AI are literally wallhacking, bushwhacking and locking on (and firing at me) through walls. Sure must be something i'm doing wrong, huh? lmao.

And no, it's not always been this way. The difficulty goes up and down like a yo-yo depending on Nikita's mood.

I dont know, i playing pve and dont have that issue, playing from 2017 and i can tell right now AI not that hard like was couple years ago

[Seals]

idk what you have the npc working rly well on pve not to easy not to hard.

Its not battlefield or call of duty.
get better and l2play with brain

[Otakuya]

I think this is intentional and I love it. Since this game is created for hardcore players, PvE could be quite boring if you surely get quest items and escape killing weak scavs and PMCs(it's not too difficult to treat them even in 1.0 IMO). I mean there're tons of fetch quests that rellies on difficulty of a raid to make gameplay enjoyable.

Now, boss spawn rate is quite high and they are terrifying as usual. You must spare strong ammo & nades to kill them strategically. Thus, we can experience special feeling which other games don't offer.

I think PvE is mainly for casuals so I totally understand OP-san's opinion thought.

[BOT LOBBY]

Stop trying to nerf the game dude! I've died 2 times in 58 raids, one on the only scav I've played so far. If anything the AI needs to be harder by a lot, it's much easier than it used to be used to be brutal back in the early days. Just improve, simple as that. You must be trying to farm clown awards or something, don't go attacking bosses if you can't cope with them shooting back

[HellHound]

My 30fps having ahh can juke them from behind, what on Gork and Mork are you doing that they are that pissed off at you xD

yep i've had 1 moment (only one though) where i was looting something (either a corpse or a container i forgot) and a scav manifested itself in front of me.

good thing he only talked and did not shoot yet...

[Sklex]

AI has never been easier.

[Das Trojanische Pferd]

PCM's are really wallhacking right now most i have seen that it happens on steel doors like the one on reserve at the vehicle yard had a group of pmc's camp in the garage where the BMP for revision is and the just keept shooting trough the metal door i have not seen a pixel from them

[Otherworldly Nomad]

For the love of god people - pve is already extremely easy... don't force them to dumb it down more... if them locking ai onto you is the only way to make pve remotely difficult - just let it be. Kill pmcs on factory, get 6 tier tank armour and run in those. That lazy company bsg will never add difficulty selection for pve, will never add mods support so sane bots will work there, but they can ♥♥♥♥ it all up even more, dumb it down into oblivion even more. Just get used to them wall hacking u. It's literally only way bsg knows how to deal with ai it seems...

amazing, so many words. go play arena breakout, or delta force, or arc raiders so you can learn what brain-dead "world of warcraft"-level ai looks like

No thanks. And Arc Raiders AI is actually pretty smart and intelligent behaviour. Doesn't make them hard, but they are a million times more intelligent than AI on Tarkov lmao. What a terrible comparison to make.

[Deadeye[EUDK]]

Regular scavs and most PMC's, even raiders too, is not really a problem. Sure, meeting a pimped out PMC with high tier ammo, will ruin anyones day, but can expect that in PvP too.
Not every fight is supposed to be won or even fought.

But the problem is many of the bosses, that only require a pixel sized LoS on you, and they will beam you down instantly.

Goons are notorious for doing this, and they will hunt you down across the entire map, nomatter where you run or hide.
AI's in general being completely unaffected by foliage, can be annoying enough. But AI bosses and their guards, being able to spot you through foliage AND hard cover, is just poor AI programming.

Just like every AI know exactly the moment your grenade leaves your hand and run away.

Sofar, my shortest raid have been on shoreline. 33 seconds, before Birdeye sent me back. Just because I spawned in the southeast area of the map.

[Orkhon]

maybe leave the tutorial and start playing the real game

[Heathy]

probably triggered tagged and cursed, this happens if you go in with (just) a pistol (or melee weapon), the AI will be hyper attentive toward you.

The bosses are unusually attentive than the regular AI, corpses make scavs spawn in. in PVE it ends up being attritional where you can keep spawning scavs until you die from 1000 paper cuts
