Computer AI Glitching Incidents and Hilarity
After playing this game for a while now, I would like to remember some of the most memorable and comedic actions by the computer controlled bots, which even though they have been programmed to have quite good intelligence, they have made a few laughable mistakes. Here are some of the hilarious ones.
If you have any to submit, please contact me.
Trace stands in lava
In Alinos Gateway, I was against a few bots, one of which was Trabot or the like. This bot version of Trace then made the most stupid error, and just stood, in lava for about five minutes before just walking off. Another time, it turned to alt form in lava and just sat there.
Spire in lava
Yes, I know Spire is immune to lava. But on the escape to get health in a game, this Spire bot just jumped up and down in the lava while shooting at the character, without moving or thinking to land on the platform.
Samus goes mental
This bot of Samus, real incident here just started jumping, at a wall while in lava for about 10-15 minutes, constantly taking damage until another computer bot just shot her in the face after that time. It was kind of strange this, the worst AI I have ever seen.
Constant Loop
My cousin Joe (Mojo here) just reported that a bot did the exact same thing for ages. It got so repetitive he knew when it was going to appear and just head shotted the thing with the Imperialist.
Trapped Weavel
I remember a three star Weavel bot landing under a low platform, but in alt form, and the halfturret ended up blocking the only exit. This thing just lunge forward for ages, trapped while a 1 star bot opponent just shot at it with missiles, missing nearly every shot. With this, I just shut off the game after getting bored after a while.
Weavel jumps at wall
Ironically, after going behind the wall in Sic Transit with a glitch, I used the Shock Coil against Weavel. Now it became the halfturret and at the same time as the halfturret was just shooting a brick wall, the top part was just jumping up and down at the wall with that neat laser sword, until I eventually Shock Coiled it to death.
My own idiocy
I remember entering a supposed secret world which was blacked out in Processor Core in multiplayer and landed on the ground while it was blacked out. I remember then just leaving it and then another character just walked all through the darkness and just started shooting at my character! Should have realised I was just in an unloaded part of the level...
So there you have it. Some funny incidents from playing stupid AI bots.
