The NPC's aim is to ridiculous and op.

[McIn Tyler]

Ok it's not even a joking matter. Especially when you're trying to do CEO missions and the worst is when you get killed when you're in a helicopter or doing the out to sea mission where you have no cover. Seriously, in the next DLC, they better nerf the NPC's aim botting.

[Tonguegirl]

It's too!

 

Also B&M

[Rafae]

Cool story bro.

 

 

Now what?

OFFICIAL LEAKED FOOTAGE OF GTAO NPC LEVELING UP THEIR OP SHOOTING SKILLS

 

 

[Xiled]

Its not B/M its a fact that ai especially in I/E is overpowered. Wanna be spawn killed by buzzards? Wanna get sniped by that stupid helicopter? Wanna get shot by an insane amount of enemies that spawn 100 feet in front of you with sultans and banshees?

 

Ever play a survival at a high rank, the ai spawns like 3 feet from you taking you out with 3 bullets from blind fire from 3 blocks away through buildings. lol

 

AI needs to be toned down a lot. There just not fun because of how overpowered they are. They don't have to be super easy to take out just give them proper ai and only let them use guns and vehicles with the same restrictions that the players do. AI in buzzards for example can shoot in 360° out of the buzzard. Ever do a gang attack recently? They will destroy you. They use miniguns with barrels that don't spin. They can snipe you with pistols at the edges of them as well.

You're right and wrong.

 

These issues have been discussed for months. it's old hat and not worthy of a new thread. Therefore B&M.

A cop in this game could shoot a dime taped to the LSIA runway from the top of Mt. Chiliad.

Edit: With the standard pistol.

They can also shoot their gun extremely fast and can shoot you while underwater lol

[Black Terminator]

Those bastard cops can also kill you in two bullets which is ridiculous when you are trying to steal a special vehicle for your warehouse.

[BitBasher]

and the worst is when you get killed when you're in a helicopter or doing the out to sea mission where you have no cover.

You are choosing to die there because you are not thinking it through. In every spot where there are barges for that mission type there is also land close enough you can land the helicopter and destroy them all with a sniper rifle, where there definitely is cover. There is never even a reason to get shot up while stealing a car from a barge.

Only two of those missions have islands nearby for cover. The others do not.

News to no one, its been a topic of discussion since launch day.

It is overpowered, and NPCs are able to do things you cannot.

Like:

1. Being able to use aim assist in vehicles for both driver and passenger.

2. Be just as accurate using blind fire as they would firing normally.

3. Can actually aim the mounted cannons on helicopters, even when enemies are directly behind them.

4. Snipe you with perfect accuracy from helicopters, something I have yet to see any player do with consistency.

This is just a few gripes.

 

Combine this with the fact that enemies instantly respawn when they die on a few missions, and it can result in some sh*tty experiences when doing missions from time to time.

 

Their accuracy is so overpowered it breaks a few missions. For example never try delivering a boat on a contact mission with a helicopter chasing you, its gonna kill you long before you get anywhere near the drop off point. Everyone has to sit and wait for the helicopter to come to them, shoot it down, then deliver. Its clear Rockstar intended for people to shoot the chopper as you go but with accuracy like that you're gonna lose that fight most of the time, so players had to improvise.

 

Its because of this overpowered accuracy that you see tons of players driving armored Kurmas or the Duke of Death when doing contact missions.

One example of the ridiculously overpowered AI is in the import/export mission where you have to steal a car offshore. If you're lucky enough to get past the super accurate bodyguards, you'll have to deal with attack buzzards that can down you in two shots. It's crazy.

[Maibatsu545]

Yeah but if the enemies have unrealistically good aim Rockstar can be lazy and not have to code AI that is actually smart and uses tactics.

The one by Fort Zancudo can't be done from land. They are far out at sea.

[HamwithCheese]

Thanks for telling us something we knew 3 years ago.

[Prince_Polaris]

As you get higher in level, NPCs become much easier to deal with. The Duke of Death is amazing when it comes to NPCs, too. Other players can get you rather easily in it (I'm told) but unless you just sit there like an idiot NPCs have a hard time killing you inside of it! Just watch out for NPCs in front of you obviously, but you should be shooting the ones in front anyway.

Edit: The rhino tank might be a pathetic whimp when it comes to PvP, but it's also awesome against NPCs! It's completely bulletproof, and of course you can blow them to pieces! Just don't run over too many cars...

Oh sh*t they do? I've only alerted them during that one once or twice, and I got the hell out of there too.

As said, simple things like this belong in the B&M topic

 

Thanks!
