Bungie, can we talk about more advanced AI in Destiny 2?

[url=https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/8g868b/we_have_to_talk_about_more_advanced_ai_in_destiny/]Reddit-Link[/url] I had this [url=https://gfycat.com/AnyLazyIaerismetalmark]moment[/url] today in the EDZ and realized something sadly amazing which we still not have in regular in the game: [b]Advanced AI tactics.[/b] You see, in the clip/gif the Phalanx cabals use their shields to push me out of my defending power source, Ward of Dawn. That is a moment I would like to see more in the harder activities of D2. AI which adapting to my playstyle and tactics and tries to counter them (like Overwatch works). [b]Imagine the follow: [/b]You are an active dawnblade warlock in your super and behind this big enemy line are three fallen snipers. You going to kill the front line of the enemy group together with your fireteam but you, the Dawnblade, gets under fire by the fallen snipers which tries to counter you primary instead of shooting on your fellow guardians. Wouldn't it be nice to have some small challenges like this in regular combat? For each ability you use? What are your thoughts?

  • Not enough processing power if you're playing this game on console. Also its a genre problem. The "smarter" your opponents get in a shooter game, the more game play starts to break down. They'll use their numerical superiority to their advantage and just overwhelm you....and the game becomes unplayable. Its why so much of the end-game content in Year 1 of Destiny 1 wound up just getting cheesed. Bungie made the mistake of----through a combination of AI intelligence, enemy numbers and durability, plus enemy damage-dealing----making a play environment that was do lethat that turtling up in a corner and chipping away at those enemies with scout rifles, sniper rifles, and rocket launchers was the only practical way to play. You may feel differently, but I'm glad they've gotten away from that...and don't wish to see it ever comeback. I like flying around the game world like a super-hero. If I wanted to feel like a WW1 rifleman hunkering down trying to survive an artillery barrage, I'd play a different game.
