BG AI

Unyonface · July 2023

The BG AI is so freaking passive, you dance around baiting them to throw a freaking special most of the match, fix that ****…

This one I don't have a counter-argument for. It's passive when you need a Special thrown, or it Blocks and Evades everything, it has a reach you can't Dex to keep up with, it even Evades and Parries Strikers. Either my phone is ancient, or it's a little too "I" to be "A". Lol.
Although I don't agree with the fix the #### sentiment.

*On the basis of tone.

Unyonface · July 2023

Lol yeah, I try dexing and what not and the AI refuses to throw their special eating away at the time. I’m just frustrated with the AI being so passive…

Opx · July 2023

I agree, I've now lost three matches just because the AI didn't want to roll SP. Either I just dance there for 30-45 seconds, or he gives straight sp3.

The AI is IMO the worst thing about playing this game. It's schizophrenic, does things a human player cannot. Can be miserable.

I’ve been caught with the AI intercepting my intercept many times in BGs, and I’m like wow, really? I also get when my champ dashes back on its own when I’m attacking lol.

I love waiting 40 seconds for an opponent to finally use a sp2 then a further 5 seconds for the unstoppable to expire. Makes it such a fun and engaging fight.

Pretty much a photo finish between AI behavior and buggy stutters and input failure for worst part of game. When you get all three in one fight, it’s a perfect chef’s kiss of dysfunction.

It’s also s_hit annoying when you try to intercept and the AI light intercepts you

ai is on a lotta recreational drugs.

I Just love it when I try to dash back and my striker pops up to strike the AI's block leaving me with a pikachu face while the AI combos me to death...

Ideal when the AI adjusts SP range and speed.

Welcome to the dark side lol.

This is my biggest complaint with BG. Well, that and somehow not getting any counters to my opponent’s champs. Having AI act a certain way makes or breaks a match. Dancing around trying to bait a special while the enemy is slowed only to have the throw it when it expires right as unstoppable procs is so frustrating. That’s on top of inputs dropping or my striker activating while I swipe back. Also, AI seems different in Gladiator Circuit compared to Victory Track.

Tim_pharmd · July 2023

But don't worry, that special will get thrown as soon as you're backed into the corner or right when the unstoppable kicks in so you can't punish it.

Shadow_Shooter · July 2023

It’s impossible to punish the opponent when they’re recovering from heavy/special attack. I’m getting less excited about the game each day. Hope I won’t quit too soon.

Shevvel · July 2023

AI will be passive if u can't deal decent damage to the opponent like rank 3 attacker vs R5 defender. Also AI won't throw spl if opponent has more powersting and there is no taunt on it.

Polygon · July 2023

And when you want to hit into block (for Hulkling, Valkyrie, or disabling Peni’s shield), its all of a sudden super aggressive 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Vegeta9001 · July 2023

AI need to be seriously looked at. There is no reason an ai should be able to "shallow evade" in air quotes because that's absolutely not what they're doing, while stood in the corner, my fist phasing through their face. This isn't in BG so kinda unrelated since they all have dex, although my dex seems not to work half the time, taking a punch or special to the face while dashing back. When they feel like launching the special and not dancing around for 30-60 seconds holding a sp2. But no, they don't hold a sp3, they launch that as if they're holding a live grenade with no pin.
