A.I. FAIL......

Ghostbusters Discussion Ghostbusters Video Games
1

Im sure this has been discussed but i couldnt find a topic for it.

I was playing the times square level, the scene where you first get to use the super slammer and fight the hobo ghosts. Im wrangling them, trapping them my self while all the while winston and peter have one hobo ghost wrangled and are just moving him around way up in the sky while im busy zapping capping and trapping all the others(sorry, couldnt resist saying that!) whats even worse is when i decide to take care of their ghost for them since they are idiots, I cant reach the damn thing because its too high in the air, my capture stream wont even auto-cap it.

Then, im fighting the last boss and get knocked down. at the current time, all four other busters are up and fighting, so i wait for one to come help me . . . . . . nothing.

I wait some more and finally see one next to me and . . . . .he gets knocked down. One by one, they run over to me and instead of helping me, they help the others who get up for a few seconds, fight, then get knocked down again.

All in all, im on the ground for about a minute while they are being morons, then they all get knocked down and i fail the mission.

talk about fuckin A.I. FAIL

It was like that for me all the way through professional mode. What a pain in the ass, because you knew if you went down you would have to listen to the damn song again as the level reloads. At least if you have idiots online, they give you so much time before you get up yourself… should have added that to single player IMO.

same here…guess thats how they make it harder, the ai doesnt help you at all

Its the worst on the Professional final level.

You get knocked down and then they run over without being defensive and get knocked down themselves until everyone is down.

I think this has been done on purpose to make the game harder for you.

I don’t know.. I noticed the AI failing on normal difficulty at the same locations.. Peter and Winston go after one ghost and fuck around in the NYC Streets level leaving you to do most of the work.. and on the Cemetary level - especially at the stone angels location - I watched myself fall many times to no other Ghostbusters coming to revive me..

AI does fail, yes.. but all games have their bugs..

Pobody’s Nerfect, right? :cool:

I had Ray get locked outside as we entered the building in the stay puft mission. It was quite funny.

I just experienced another glitch today… this time when fighting the ghosts of the construction workers on the roof of the Architectural building before fighting Tubby SoftSqueeze.. one of the ghosts got stuck inside one of the window openings on the roof, and Ray and Peter were blasting away at the roof opening..

Finally after 20 minutes.. the ghost just reappeared in the air and I was able to zap it, cap it and trap it.. guess the AI can fix itself? .. hrrm..

same thing happened to me there too, just once though. i fired my beam and hit capture until i got his ass them pulled him out of the wall.
