    So we all know that with the new update a new AI has come out. Most of us have noticed this difference and I have seen that a majority of the community isn't on board with it.

    Before the update whenever I would finish a 4 hit combo or any combo for that matter the AI would make the opponent dash towards me while phasing with ghost and I would phase intercept and start another combo and repeat.

    Now after the update, the AI no longer dashes in. I tried this across all the different game modes and still nothing. No dash, just standing and blocking. My alliance mates are also experiencing this.

    Just out of curiosity is anybody else experiencing this after the latest update, would like to know.

    @Kabam Miike you & your kabam employee’s have changed the AI in the worst way possible & it’s in all content.... it is far more passive than ever before plus I am just amazed at how it can run at me then just stop dead in its tracks with out blocking & act like it’s having a conversation with me... I know others have said that the AI has changed in the past but right now this is ridiculous besides I thought y’all were going to fix how passive the AI is with holding on to special attacks in arena for it is still the same BS we in the community have been dealing with forever & we are now in the month of August... I could be wrong but I think y’all announced that arena changes were happening in this month... I’m tired of being patient for ive been patient ever since the nerf of version 12.0 & what patience I have left is for dealing with the coronavirus pandemic that seems to have no end in sight

    If you had patience you would have read through other threads and the Bugs section to know that this is an unintended change and they're looking for the cause.

    It's not like this issue, or anything else you mentioned is or has affected only you.

    I noticed it. Couldn't even get past RoL black panther with a fully synergised, awakened rank 5 5* ghost with max suicides!

    Used Ghost in AQ map6, no issues and it didn’t feel any different.

    And kabam playing the dumb card about it

    Yes, by investigating the issue.

    On an unrelated note, as most people know if you go outside and look up you can see the sky. Has anyone else noticed this?

    AI against Ghost is back to how you once tried to change it. While in phase mode the AI will swing a couple of times but when you go to intercept they either block or dash back mid combo. Something that is mechanically impossible for us to do but this new AI has no issues doing it.
    But yeah there's been no change... Just like last time.

    The AI is extremely off and it’s getting irritating. I’ve already lost two arena fights (nearly 140k points gone) because of how passive the AI is. They don’t hit back immediately then as soon as I throw a hit, they block and land a parry on me. There’s very clearly a problem with their behavior and it needs to be fixed ASAP. Can’t imagine how frustrating this problem would be in act 6 or Abyss.

    Even the 6.2 Champion was acting passively as seen in Seatin’s video and he’s supposed to be one of the most aggressive AI in the game.

    no one other than the 14,000,605 other people posting threads here and in the bug section.

    I didn't consider it a Bug necessarily and didn't realize they were merging threads on it in the Bug section. ¯\(°_o)/¯

    So... My energy is rotting cause i refuse to do content with this buggy AI.. (it is stated that it is a known bug)... On top of that i have a sigil, which as advertised i am getting 1 energy every 5 mins instead of 6...
    New EQ, new side EQ, boss rush, war, aq, arenas, all this is affected by lack of testing previous of an update... Yet every bundle offer, every timed sale after a rank up works perfectly fine...this is as greedy as it gets.

    Honestly if kabam wants to keep this new AI system in play, it’s all good. I’m just not putting anymore money into this game and I’ll just play more as a casual player. Not wasting units on revives or health. I have literally ran a map, didn’t manage to complete it, left map and turned off game and did something else. There are lots of options out there. I’ll pop into this forum to periodically to see if there has been any changes. Hope everyone is having better luck with the new AI then me.

    They have labeled it a BUG so they can't leave it like this...

    Hey folks!

    First off, thanks for bringing this to our attention. We will continue to monitor this.

    Meanwhile, please continue to provide us specific information, such as:
    i) what is unusual about the specific opponent(s);
    ii) where are you encountering this;
    iii) when are you encountering this (specific instances, if applicable)

    The above information will be very helpful in our data collection and investigation.

    Thanks for being awesome, and thank you in advance for your cooperation!

    AQ map 6, Boss Rush, Monthly event quest, arena for T1Alpha. The A.I take forever to attack. After a combo, heavy, two medium attacks, special attacks the A.I will freeze in spot then walk towards you. Freeze is spot means they just stand there and wait for you to attack. They try to parry you. If you are in arena they do parry you because do the other players masteries. In arena the A.I will not throw a special attack. They just keep running/ walking towards me. I’m not playing the boss rush or herald content until this is fixed. It’s already cost me enough revives.

    Here’s a video that I watched yesterday that explains part of it.

    The problem is not if they consider it a Bug, the problem is if they are going to fix it quickly or try to milk some extra money on the impatience of individuals, this bug is a fantastic money grab for them. If you gave out a compensation package full of revives and such, and then magically a bug that forces you to burn it all comes out.... can’t knock kabam, it’s a brilliant way to get back your loses, while boosting profits. Just I will probably be one of the few who won’t participate in it lol.

    If they were really smart they would bring out a revive package at an inflated price to get the most out of this “bug”

    I encountered this in 6.2.6 while exploring. This is occurring in every fight.

    We didn't say it's not acting weird, but that it's not a change. We're looking into it, but need the information that Boo asked for earlier so that we can determine what the issue is.

    No need to “recollect information” just go to the game, Duel some profile and see what is happening yourself. If you have play the contest before you should notice.

    I was in the middle of my Abyss run and I didn't know about this AI issue and it cost me a couple thousand more units than it should've due to the nature of trying to bait out specials, it also added several hours of game play to my time as well.

    Personally I want my units back even though I know it will not happen but let me warn people to stay out of the Abyss until this is addressed.

    @ItsDamien ya I know that, I just wanted input from a bunch of other people besides my alliance
  • Gregdagr8Gregdagr8 Member Posts: 384 ★★★
    Yeah AI is totally passive right now, not fun. Had to use revives and potions in AQ because a 500k health Sasquatch won't throw a special until he's in his wraith phase. Basically no hard content can be completed right now, WAY too risky.
  • Cendar333Cendar333 Member Posts: 303
    Awesome @Kabam Miike hope it works!

    I might get the most hate for this comment, but I don’t think a compensation package for this is necessary. We got a really nice one where even some people got it twice... I mean I didn’t get anything great from my pull, but it was really generous what they gave us. My suggestion is until this is fixed just stick to replenishing your revives and health pots, collect units in arena and just take a step back and enjoy the game. Then go crazy again when it’s fixed.

    Yeah.. a week of AQ is important for some alliances, the EQ has certain days for certain rewards... Arenas are affected too...
    People invest money on units, revives, even a Sigil to make energy more efficient to play...
    Your suggestion might work for you but it seems you dont understand how it affected some people, gonna give u one little example.
    Herald difficulty Vision Arkus... Insane power gain while just standing there looking at you and not attacking... A lot of people used revives for failure in the game, they should be compensated.
