F.E.A.R-ish AI for HECU Marines

I wounder what would happen if Xystus did C++ and was a dev at this community?
Answer: Awesome AI!

johnyo, thanks for hospitality, I’m honored. Maybe if you, guys, write something not about “what B.L.A.C.K. M.E.S.A. means” it would be easier to find answers, uh? I’m not about you but look - topic is full of flood as others do. As I found, A.I. will be HL2-like (or HL2:EP2-like), so that’s bad! And that’s what I said.

Oh here we go again with this shit.

What’s the problem?

This thread has been rehashed over, and over, and over again. Everything that can be argued about the AI already has been.

Well, okay, I’m not a new guy here only cuz I registered a few hours ago. I follow your community since 2008-2009, so I know, that thread is old as our planet is. Just wanted to share my opinion, nothing else.

You could have taken a look over the wiki before posting that.

Anyways, is a typical gargantua/crockroach error. Don’t feel bad, you wouldn’t be the first and you will not be the last.

They made their own AI for everything but Headcrabs and Barnacles.

Edit: I replied from the wrong page it seems.

mechaelite, Mr. Someguy, thank you, guys. Our planet is alive only cuz there are such people like you :slight_smile:

But why isn’t this thread closed if the question has its answer? I thought devs finished their AI coding (or they are finishing).

They’re making their own AI. Although I think a few behaviours are based on HL2 ones.

EDIT: Dang, ninjad by a page.

actually, the mod is a bit far from finished. There are important characters as Nihilianth wich don’t even have model, also the HECU have been changing of model one time and another… the Xen levels aren’t done yet also. So if they need to do all of this, some AI coding suggestions can still be done.

mechaelite, thanks again for the details. But actually, some ideas were really good: furniture capsize, throwing player’s grenades back, flashlight detection, kicking player in close combat, etc. It will be amazing if devs add that stuff. Maybe I’m blind, but I didn’t find any dev’s answer since ~5th page about these ideas (~5 cuz some ideas have place on 6-7th page, for example).

Where did you get those ideas from? There hasn’t been any verification of any of that.

How can you know that? O_o

look the f*ckin wiki, search images from Xen or nihilianth

Maybe the devs just don’t want us to see Xen cuz it’s too cool.

I never said that the developers have started or finished any of those things.

I simply asked how he knew they hadn’t been started. To the best of my knowledge there is a media blackout on everything that happens after the Lambda complex, and we won’t hear anything about Xen or the Nihilanth until the game is actually released.

Since the developers haven’t confirmed or denied the start or completion of the Nihilanth model or the Xen levels, I have to figure that mechaelite was just jumping to conclusions based on lack of media.

Also, last I heard, they were finished with work on the HECU and weren’t going to be changing it any time soon. Something that Raminator has eluded to many times over the last year (if not explicitly said).

Dind’t said that, I only said it was no finished YET.

Afaik they went through only 1 model before the current one, and several textures. The current model / texture design is final and will not be changed.

Xen is meant to be a surprise, that’s why they aren’t showing it off.

Yeah, I only pop in here a little since the mod started. The past forum crashes keep forcing me to make a new account, but since the beginning(Years ago…I feel old:[ ) they have said that Xen will NOT be shown. You can’t even know that they have not finished it. Maybe they did Xen already and are doing something else. Ram is ramming your brain! Look out! D:
