Have you guys considered variables that could make the AI attempt to find an alternate path, maneuvering around and attempting to catch the enemy from behind, similar to how players do? Perhaps you could incorporate a variable called 'danger' so that if the current path is too hazardous, the AI can seek a safer route.
Looks great! How does the procedurally generated cover system effect performance, both when all of the cover points being calculated and generated, and when existing simultaneously in the world and being checked by every AI actor searching for one? Also how would it work in a larger environment, like how big of an area before you see any major performance issues? Plus if performance is an issue on large worlds, since it's generated procedurally can you just generate cover points in a radius around the player and remove any that you move too far from, or would continuously calculating locations and spawning/destroying them harm performance even more?
Hey :) So we generate the cover not in real time, we run the generation before we build the game and use static data. Therefore there is no performance impact even on bigger maps. AI queries cover via EQS which are generally also very performant, so no issue there either :)
what trying to launch the demo the window name is --> Test_C (64-bit development PCD3D_SM5) But I can't open it or close it :/ plz respond with help, as I am truely interested in the game.
This was really interesting, moving to/from cover and scanning the area definitely makes the A.I. look immersive, nice work.
This is a great look into how the game is progressing, love the ui by the way
I have about 20 hours in the demo currently, but now i think its time for 20 more :)

We have something similar, we will try to make it more "obvious"
Love it man.

Would be cool to know how is this procedural cover generation work?
I mean how algorithm works to find such points.
Great job!
It's actually a plugin from the marketplace that we use here. :)
ayoo that's neat goood jerb and all that
Are you planning for friendly Ai mates or factions?

I was just wondering but when will you be able to play with friends because I always find it more fun to mess around with my friends
We are working hard on the coop update :)
is the steam demo playable in co-op with a friend?
i have not noticed, do they always stop to shoot? or do they also move while shooting?
No they don't stop when they shoot. They always keep strafing a bit
1:41 it looks the wall. it should look entry points instead. is this GOAP? cool video man!
Yeah ideally that would be the case :)
Sorry what is GOAP?
@@IncursionRR Goal Oriented Action Planning. AI programming used in FEAR.
@@gabrielmajorsky9532 Well kind of yes. As you can see the AI also has goals & plans
What do you call this AI programming pattern? Is this goal oriented action planning?
We are using BTs with 3 layers for behaviour / goal / plan
I love this, EFT but PvE
Is one person developing this?
7 in total :)
@@IncursionRRgreat job! The whole team or only devs?
@@guimello00 We have one programmer (me :D ) and the rest of the team is doing animation/ level design/sound and community stuff :)
