Ridiculous AI Accuracy

[Gay Tony]

inb4 someones comes in and says "realism"

 

Yea, because robocops are realistic.

 

Besides, I remember a few months back some woman irl went psycho and tried busting though the white house gates with her car.

 

I saw the video and at least 6 or 7 officers were just standing there pointing their guns while she was backing up and driving away.....

Neither, keep it how it is.

Stupid site won't let me vote, it says "You must cast your vote in each question of the poll." when I try and select Nerfed & Trevor.

[BrokenLizard]

The black gang members should have the lowest accuracy. Then the Lost. The Mexicans have mediocre accuracy. Gangsters in suits should have high accuracy and the military should have the best.

 

I don't think R* gave a sh*t when they gave gang members the same accuracy as a highly trained soldier.

Free aim is ridiculous

 

I was on my BMX & 200 meters away, I get hit by the cops shooting their magic pistol

Why I don't play FA? Because of the sh*tty unrealistic AI bullsh*t. If it weren't for the robof*cks I would've sticked to FA forever after.

It can be frustrating but it's not all that difficult to be fair. I'm not claiming to be amazing at GTA but I use FA and I've never found a mission I couldn't complete on hard on my own. Some of them just take a little longer while you stay behind cover and pick enemies off cautiously.

 

The only exception is the ones with infinite spawning enemies which makes things f*****g difficult but that's not a FA issue.

Cash cards.

The AI is fine how it is, it's why the missions can be challenging at times on hard, especially on Auto-Aim.

 

Michael is the best character. Franklin and Trevor both suck.

You left your head poking out, he blew your brains out of it. Use it as a learning expierience and try a better strategy next time.

gta is made to be a singleplayer game really. and its made for auto aim. but online i always use freeaim because skill on skill is more thrilling and its slower paced in free aim so interactions kind of have more chance to develop.
dem police with their super pistol aim at 200odd yards is a 'slight' annoyance though. but thats nothing to with freeaim just sh*tty ai aiming ... well really good but sh*tty-unrealistic.

That's nothing.

 

I'm pretty high leveled, and gang attacks are becoming more dangerous than jet griefers to me. All those 100% accurate minugun NPC's that go invisible on the map when they're not firing will make anyone paranoid.

 

hahaha soooo ^^^^ hate it sometimes when i try ti pickup my vestra from the landing strip

[GopherHedgeHots]

What annoys me the most is the npcs will shoot you immediately after they come around a corner, i think they dont even have to shoot bullets rather they just need a line of sight. Sure their guns fire but its not like when another player shoots me, its as if they can will me to be damaged while their gun fires blanks.

It is annoying they are so accurate but I believe it comes with your choice of mission style; easy, normal, hard. It just makes the payout a little used up when having to re-stock ammo from putting 500 bullets into one guy (haha), but it's the way the game is on missions.

 

What I think needs to f*ck off is when in freemode sessions if you killing other players by guns and no explosives (tank, jets, buzzards, RPG, sticky bombs, grenades or grenade launchers) you will should not receive wanted level. Fair enough if you hit a NPC while shooting, then ok IMO for wanted level be fair to come as it does already but I find the confusing part is.. You pull a gun out in public and NPC don't react. You throw a punch in the air or fall over and they lose there minds..

Shoot 2 kill OP

[Thunderer08]

I get standing AI would be fairly accurate but those in SUV's, boats and Chopper is some bull..... like the chopper from a mile away or behind a building, The worse one was while doing Diamonds are for Trevor... the boat/rib that attacks you....total BS they hit a wave and the bullets came through the bottom of the boat and hit me nearly killing me on the spot...wow come on Cockstar what are you doing....

 

RR is a bastard... poke your head out from the wall with a carbine and pop dead with 4 bullets... no wonder people use RPG's on that.

 

As for the police.... nobody has mentioned the cruisers out running a super car and trying to pitt them at 220mph that's bulls*** too! Umm that's realism!?

 

same with the police choppers 2 of them clanging into each other to get to you... that's E'fed up and surely makes for a fire ball, please!

 

I hate doing any of the truck missions with SUV killers chasing you... if they hit you head on you can't shot down but they can up and your toast every time...thanks cockstar.... anyway rant over.... spose it would suck if it was really easy on all the games it just needs turning down a notch on some game play.

I normally would say that it's fine as it is, however, today I was doing that Simeon mission, the one where you gotta steal the orange Dominator.

 

So yeah, a teammates takes the car and I follow him on my bike.

 

Random Escalade appears behind me, filled with vatos inside, shooting at me.

 

Me on my Nemesis and that Escalade, going at high speed, round the corner.

 

They didn't miss a single shot. Literally.

 

My back be like

But their aim is ridiculous. I've read a story in the B&M thread about a guy who flipped in his car several times over. While in the air, he got shot to death by the AI. I think it was Luisniko.

 

That's just poppycock.

[NombreDeLaBeast]

Like many have said, there should be some sort of curve between the different "factions". Hell even slight variations period would be cool, since not everyone shoots well...why should all NPCs be so special? (Besides the fact that we have free thought and whatnot...so I guess there is that.)

[Crunch McThornbody]

Rockstar have turned all the players into NPC bullet magnets, it's f*cking insane how accurate they are in virtually every situation you get yourself into where NPCs are shooting at you.

 

Some months ago I noticed a significant increase in the accuracy and damage of the NPCs in gang attacks, if you accidentally trigger an attack whilst you're out in the open on foot then look forward to seeing that WASTED screen turn up. Sandy Shores airstrip is a bitch for that scenario, like when you spawn there after a mission.

 

And it's pure sewage bullsh*t how the police heli's will spawn so close to you in the air when you have a wanted level, even in a jet at the ceiling of the gameplay area they suddenly appear, which is why when I join random jobs I often quit out of the Docks to Stock & American Export missions because trying to outrun them and lose wanted stars in a cargobob is so often insanely frustrating to do, even when you've got a teammate in a buzzard shooting them down it just triggers more to spawn right next to you!

 

 

Oh yeah there's one other thing I've noticed NPCs can do which you can't; shoot vertically. First noticed they do this whilst in a mission where they spawn in cars to chase you down and shoot you, I was in a heli and they were immediately below me and I was getting shot at. WTF R*?! Our characters have limitations on the range/accuracy and angles we can shoot at, the NPCs should have the same limitations FFS!

A.I in this game is pretty much. Surprise Mothaf#cka....KABLOW. I understand in theory why they HAD to make the aimbots ridiculous to offer some semblance of challenge as some of the missions aren't very indepth. Its just something we'll have to live with and in Free Aim anything over over 3 stars is a death sentence. Pray to God you don't wreck and have to go on foot, as the Cops in the game say...."ITS OVEEEEEEEEEER!!"
