Games with the worst AI
 

What games are you playing that drive you crazy with ******ed AI?

For me it's the sims.

"Okay, good, you're cooking dinner. Just wait till you're done eating... Aren't you hungry? Your food is done... Really, must I tell you to eat your food? Ugh, fine... Wait, where are- wha- bu- where are you going? Why are you getting in the sprinkler?!? GET OUT OF THE FRIKIN SPRINKLER! Okay butler, take his food out to him. Good now... Hey... Y'know that's... Plasma fruit nectar, right? Don't drink that your not a vamp- okay, or you could guzzle it down and barf all over the place... Maid, clean that up plea- NO DON'T DRINK IT ARE YOU BLIND THE BUTLER JUST REGURGITATED THA- ... I'm gonna explode now, k?"

The AI's of simulation games...is so dang stupid...make me ragequit and butthurt

Hey, I made a really good ai for a baddy that spars like a player would :(

We're saying GENERAL ai, I'm sure some NPCs are smarter than the average noob in Classic.

-.-

Sorry, I thought you guys meant ai as in computer generated opponents like in chess/rts games/ Smash bros etc

...

wait I thought ai stands for application interface

:facepalm

or does it stand for alternative implementation?

Day of Defeat: Source

Artificial Intelligence. It's where a computer program can respond to your input. Siri is an example of an A.I.

damn, I could have sworn it stood for advanced interaliasing

Any Halo game, dare you let any of the frickin AI marines drive while you're on the gun. You'll be looking at a wall and crashing into trees for a good 20 minutes before they run you into something that kills you.

Sounds like me playing Mario Kart :P but of course I'm just as bad with GTA.... It's like the cars are supposed to crunch like an aluminum can when someone ends up rubbing against you XD plus it doesn't help that people on GTA3 drive like a bunch of idiots. You can not tell me you have seen a red light in that game that isn't looming over someone who rear ended someone else.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution AI.

Skyrim's AIs are definitely up there with the top 10.

Beat me to it.

halo games

Dwarf Fortress has some stupid AI for companions sometimes.

Rest of party: There it is! The dragon! Let us charge at it with twigs and throw pebbles at it while it roasts us like marshmallows!

Me: Kay, you do that! And while you're doing that I will run very far away and wait until it has eaten you, then intelligently plan an ambush involving me shooting it in the face with a crossbow while it doesn't notice me! Make sure to make futile attacks for as long as possible! Bye!

Goldeneye on N64. Those idiots dive into walls on a regular basis

I wouldn't say that's horrible AI, but rather exploitable AI. We never see much AI in action, the player simply found a sweet spot that made the bots bottleneck in a certain path. Sure, the fact that you COULD exploit them may be argued is bad AI, but you'd be hard-pressed to find AI that can't be exploited. I have never played the game though so don't get the impression I'm saying the AI isn't bad, I really don't know :P

In Day of Defeat: Source, bots would insta-lock to your head, across the map, while looking the other way in a 180° spin and one-shot you in the head and go on their merry way. The whole process took less than a second.

God, I hate when bots are programmed to never miss like that XD

This.

I hadn't played Halo since Halo 2, until this past summer when I bought a console and a buddy came over to lend me Halo 3 we Co-oped campaign for a bit and he was surprised as hell that the AI didn't crash my buggy.

Minecraft :3

Minecraft AI has gotten a huge improvement, they specifically hired someone who specializes in AI to come on and make new AI for mobs. For example mobs like zombies will run from light and into shade/water to survive, all mobs have pathfinding now and so on... however they can still be fairly stupid. The only thing you need to do to see how stupid they can be is to watch villagers overnight.

Now all they need to do is hire somebody to fix the authentication server Zzz

I think they actually have 3 people for that :P
