Hey All! Just want to let you know this is an active discussion with the game team as you've seen us post previously. But I wanted to pop in and let you know this isn't something that has fallen off our radar. I'll update you when I have either something official or just another reminder that we're on it!
Seriously? Remember being a player? This is an absolute joke! I hope your family is well cared for Dave. Only cost you one soul my friend. We miss you and hope you find your way back to land of humanity
Yoooo chill out. What the hell man?? "Dork" has been part of our MCOC family for a long time, and is genuinely listening and trying to do what he can for the community. No need to act like this towards him.
I want to know what's up with America Chavez AI on defense in BGs man. Wjy is her AI so "determined" to land a heavy attack? All she does is spam heavies, leaving you no choice but to avoid them by dexing back. After about 10 of her attempted heavies in row, you're backed up into your corner. And guess what? Here comes ANOTHER freakin heavy attempt. One wrong move with your dex, one bad timing, one game glitch that throws your reaction time off, one slip up, one miscalculation, one dropped input, and you're clapped by her Sp 2.

Wtf is this even??
If you're mad on Chavez heavy spam, may I introduce you to Mysterio heavy spam? You could be standing on far side of screen, doing nothing but still he will throw 2 heavy on repeat.
I came back on forums because of the ridiculous things happening to me during fights. I already commented once. Glad to see its not just me. I cant even take this game serious. Constantly trying to adapt to faster an an faster defender movements every month has just made me lose interest. Dont risk attacking when they have power or throw a heavy, dont throw full combos in corner or fire specials, intercepts an shallow evades and dont hit into block. I keep adding champs to the list to that i cant punish after a heavy or special. Basically never let block down a move forward the defender will instantly throw a heavy an jump frames an hit you. NOW i cant even block!! Defenders just hit right through it. Or thats how it seems. Fighting ANY champ that is unblockable is ridiculous now!!! After you attack them , you cant block or parry an it only leaves one option an thats back off!! But cant do that now! Instantly get blasted with a special or they hit you or hawk you down mid dash. Kabam needs to fix this problem!!
Gahh, this Doom again decided to use sp2 against my Titania sp3 cycle.
It's horrible, cut it out !!!
Doom’s AI even when she was introduced loved to do this. She’s one of my absolute favorites but Doom had always been a risky one to sp3 and heavy cycle.
Still what’s more notable is everyone seems to behaving like Doom now.
Just continued investigations for now. There's a regular meeting on this to discuss and breakdown what is how we can address etc. I'm being purposefully vague here simply because I don't want to hard confirm any one particular thing yet and don't want to promise anything the team can not deliver on reliably. Stay tuned for more as we hear it.
Thanks Dork, just you taking the time to give an update like this is a breath of fresh air. It would be so significant if just one of the game wide in-fight points if frustration could be address or at least a plan of attack shared. I think most of us appreciate that it’s not just one thing called AI, but some patchwork of performance, AI behavior, and visual bugs.

Lol been there with him too. They both spam heavies as if they're rooted or something 😂

They're probably programmed on purpose to throw heavies since heavies are important in their kits.

While you guys investigate, just reporting that I got reparried by AI 3 times last war 😞. 3x in 1 war, It’s getting out of control. Shang-Chi, trying to active MLLM chi on Prowler, bam reparried by AI. Fighting Onslaught with Serpent, hitting his block while I have Pierce, bam, reparried by AI, 2x. And when Onslaught parries you, your willpower is disabled rest of the fight 🤦. It used to be that champs with double hit mediums were the unsafe ones, now any champ can be reparried by AI mid combo. Anyone know when or what time period this started occurring, the AI acting strangely?
Since the last update the special button (left bottom side) seems very unresponsive. Most times nothing happened, sometimes it registers as a parry. Very annoying when you want to special intercept.
The other thing is the problem that keeps going on with dexing. The distance you dex is shorter than the space of the attack of the defender.

Especially with Cheeilth's heavy, even dexing her heavy isn't enough space. You'll still get clipped. You have double dex her heavy.
I Swear I'll lose my mind if one more time onslaught dash back and light intercept me when I try to dash in. It is too annoying nowadays costed me another good bg match.

I think the AI issues have been happening for a while now, not just in 2024

Still skipping frame rate issue bro, however until this time, I doubt this is bug anymore, feels like an intentional cheating from Kabam

And then you wonder why they don't take you serious... Yeah pretty sure the new CMs will politely keep you updated.

Lol my patience is gone! This update makes everything even worse with the flood of thread about every issues. Just look at how many dislike you got! I don’t ask the issue need to be fixed immediately, but I want some update at least what is the root cause? And what is the potential solution along with eta to fix

Just fought night carnage in crucible, he took legit 2 minutes to change form because of "BLOCK NO BLOCK BLOCK NO BLOCK BLOCK NO BLOCK" thing he does on repeat.
Why AI is so jittery and retad? Like can't it at least behave properly?
With the AI the way it is, facing Brute force nodes or anything that requires you to hit the opponent is torture, when they decided they want to back off and block over and over not much is changing their mind. Really makes the game "fun and interactive"
I just asked ChatGPT about why the AI is bad in mcoc and this is what it said
In *Marvel Contest of Champions* (MCOC), the AI can seem "bad" for a few reasons:
1. **Predictability**: The AI often follows set patterns and has a limited range of behaviors. Experienced players can easily predict these patterns, making the AI seem less challenging.
2. **Programming Limitations**: The AI is designed to provide a balanced experience for a wide range of players. If the AI were too advanced, it might discourage newer or less skilled players. As a result, the AI may sometimes make suboptimal decisions to keep the game accessible.
3. **Difficulty Scaling**: In some game modes, the AI is intentionally less aggressive or reactive to maintain a certain level of difficulty. In other modes or higher levels, the AI can become more challenging, but in lower levels, it might seem "bad" to make the game easier to progress through.
4. **Player Skill**: As players get better at the game, they can outmaneuver or outsmart the AI, making it seem less competent.
5. **Game Balance**: The AI’s difficulty is often balanced with other game mechanics, such as the power of the champions, synergies, and node buffs. This balance can sometimes make the AI feel less intelligent when it doesn’t use its abilities optimally.
Overall, the AI in MCOC is designed to provide a varied experience, but as with many games, it may not always pose a significant challenge to more experienced players.

Your evolutuon on this thread. 1- Trash previous CMs 2- Bootlick new CMs 3- Call the company cheaters. Calling me kid when you have the mood swings of a fuzzy toddler..
In more than one way the AI is seriously broken. The reaction time or speed of the AI is out of control and causes many of the other problems. .
For example, I often miss a medium attack when the defender is at a distance while I'm trying to anticipate an intercept. As we all know a swipe when the defender is at a distance should cause the attacker to dash in, not attack.
Only a swipe at close range should cause the attacker to use a medium into the defenders hit box.The only way for this to happen is for the defender to dash in and then dex back/evade within a single frame because I don't see the animation move.
The defenders increased ability to parry is also related to this increase in AI speed. And KABAM has never, and will never, admit to changing it.

1- Who said “trash” previous CMs here? Please quote 2- Saying someone doing better job than others before mean “bootlick” 3- So sad but this is my assumption now! I already gave them time to solve or at least give some updates, but we got nothing so far. In real world job, if you delay like this, you already lost your job and customer, but this is a game, kind of special industry.
P/s: Those words like “trash”, or “bootlick” an adult should not use it in a forum public, a kid may think it’s cool but I highly recommend don’t use them as well. CMs will not happy if they see it )

Hitting into NF second life in BG's with hulkling, juuuust about to go unblockable and kill with a SP2 when BAM. Parried. And light bled.
Round lost.
