Bot Tyrant Exploit

Post by RustyNaps »

Hi just Rusty here AKA Shizbot, probably the only player in the game on the NA servers. Anyway after playing for a little bit; great start by the way guys keep it going, I have found a little exploit when a bot is a Tyrant. Bot tyrants usually ram as a first attack and then claw, well if you dodge left or right and run around in a tiny circle the bot Tyrant well keep trying to ram you but fail miserably and run circles around your circles, this makes for an easy kill and a mass amount of credits. Just thought I would point that out.

Keep up the work guys! This game looks and plays great! You guys might be the first to make a good looking opensource!

Yeah... they 'let go' as soon as you're in their claw range so if you pop in and out, it cant do shit. Same goes for goon AI. And basi AI (if you can/know how to). So hilarious. You can't get perfect bots anyway. Human pulse rifle is very OP compare to flamer, with the AI to run backwards, then forwards, you could effectively 'bite once' and let the human burn himself as a dretch if done carefully enough. Walls are very helpful as well. Then there's the luci - When it fires, jump/pounce up/dodge to either side. OR even in the approach, dodge and it will shoot the bullet randomly to either side. Wait: there's more! Due to the inverse acceleration toward target like aiming, if you travel one direction rather than dodging for a human using a weapon other than luci, they will miss unless you're something large and 'slow' like a tyrant.
