^^^^^@cal4m1ty

well you were wrong then,,cause most of the previewers/reviewers are praising the AI.

knifing can be done in every game on easier settings(cod4 /cod 5).on harder settings you can't do it.

just watch this 2007 E3 trailer @ 2:30,,,the guy melees the player back when he gets too close.

I told you all that the AI in Killzone 2 looked ridiculously stupid in the gameplay videos.

EDIT: But obviously this doesn't break the part of the game that I'm buying the disc for. Online. (hopefully)

 

Read Twesterm's post.  This is an issue that many shooters face, and it's an issue of development priorities.  under normal circumstances, it seems that the game has great AI.

Here's a preview from Edge based on the review build of the game (they can't post the actual review until the NDAs are over at the end of January):

Enemy AI, one of the sore points in the first game, seems convincingly tough, even at normal difficulty. They'll use cover as effectively as you do, try to flank your position, flush you out with grenades and even duck, roll and shuffle to safety if they're caught in the open. If a Helghast trooper is making a break for different cover, and you start firing in front of them, they'll stop and try to head back the way they came. A small touch, perhaps, but indicative of the intelligence you're up against. Their lifelike responses are made more convincing thanks to some excellent animation, which holds fairly steady across all the character models and environments. When a fellow member of Alpha Squad busts a door down with his shoulder, there's genuine weight and momentum to the action. Flags and tarpaulins flutter angrily in the constantly raging Helghan storms, while swirls of dust and billows of smoke display particle effects that manage to be impressive without feeling distractingly showy.

May I point out there is an achievement/trophy for completing a level in CoD WaW with just your knife, it is not particularly hard, and you have to do it on regular or above, then again the AI in WaW is not that great

in fact they say it's only easy in the first level(s?), while they add "this tactic is an excellent way to get killed while fighting the tougher, smarter enemies later in the game", so it's kind of incomprehensible to me why they even bothered to make it a news just to contradict themselves in the last paragraph...

LOL, this reminds me of Assassins Creed. In that game, you could stab someone dead and, walk two feet, the guy next to other other guard wouldn't know who did it. That game was terrible.



Kantor on 09 January 2009

Oh, right.

So, they like it then.

So, we all just got angry for nothing...
Damn.

Erm...should we stop now?

AI!...  AI huh, you want AI, well you can have your "Artificial Intelligence"!

"If you play through it several times, you won't really see the same thing twice. Environments are destructable and cover is destructable.  We developed an AI that uses these environment changes."

"Squad members actually respond to your actions an work with you, not just a novelty item."  If you SUCK, they will tell you "HEY GET YOUR ASS TO COVER", lol.  "You won't be babysitting your Squad.  They can hold their own and sometimes save your skin."
