[QUOTE=riki2cool;40275171][url]http://www.psnation.org/2013/04/11/developer-interview-overkill/[/url] Well, there goes a bit of my hype...[/QUOTE] I always found the bots to be pretty useless. Barely getting any kills and just getting spotted on Diamond Heist.
[QUOTE=Sommoch;40275375]and just getting spotted on Diamond Heist.[/QUOTE]It is literally impossible for a bot to get spotted in Diamond Heist during the stealth phase. If you start that heist with bots, they are "disabled" as far as the game is concerned. The patrolling guards can't see the bots as they're not actually there, rather they're just husks playing an idle animation waiting to activate once an alarm sounds. As such, the guards will simply walk by them even though they're clearly in view.

However, I'm pretty sure the guards still won't be able to spot the bot as the AI in the game is pretty much built to cheat in a lot of ways.
The only thing they were really useful for was getting you up.
[QUOTE=Dispenser;40275770]The only thing they were really useful for was getting you up.[/QUOTE] and even that they did a pretty shitty job of.
The bots rivaled L4D2's for the award of most useless AI anyway. :v:
All this speak of terrible AI [img]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/595874391772854900/25D2C264F8032369DB6D52B2578E0330A1E8502C/[/img] Not like he mad or anything. Wolf is the derpiest bot, complete with glitchy animations. Sure is a fun guy
Anyone know if Payday 2 is gonna have special units and the like? We know there's still Bulldozers, but we haven't seen any others in the videos. Also are they gonna have the formula of Light SWAT and Heavy SWAT?

Would seem like a downgrade to remove them, since the AI teammates are already kicked out. Speaking of which, the new bulldozer is creepy.

I think it would be cool if they add a feature where you can kill hostages to make the police back off faster during assault waves.

You know, like make it less focused on shooting and more planning tactics to get the money and escape without any problem. A man only can dream...

Weapons limited by class, fuck that man.
Yeah, I like being able to pick and choose, it's especially bad since you can spec into one class only.
[QUOTE=Zeos;40317898]Yeah, I like being able to pick and choose, it's especially bad since you can spec into one class only.[/QUOTE] Not exactly. You can max out one of the classes, the other three classes can only be leveled to like 50%, so Enforcers can still sneak around and and Ghosts can still support the team
So my friend managed to get the scrubs on before the guard saw him [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/594749539319719022/D6718EE0DC97E0FE5C1C18D288A2D800028105A0/[/t] He raised the alarm and the cops started showing up quickly, ignoring the gang [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/594749539319722026/5322151D681AFAE1AB79831AB2F34474A00E2431/[/t] [t]http://cloud-2.steampowered.com/ugc/594749539319734501/EB3C1CD12CA3DDB8B7CC12149A818C89E80FC254/[/t]
He recorded a video of wandering around the cops, although sadly the video got corrupt or something, and when he pulled out his gun, two of the bots got incapped near straight away and he nearly followed suit before he sprinted out of there.
Apologies for the bump. As much as I'm hyped for this game, I really hope the whole "waiting multiple days for new heists" thing isn't implemented. Like I'm going to wait an actual day or two for a new heist to appear, just make them available one after another.

Thats great!
I'm kind of upset, I won't lie. When I hear "Coming Summer 20XX" I immediately assume June :c
