In Hitman spending ages trying to get a perfect score on a mission only to learn in the debriefing that one guard thought he saw your face in the clouds, or in a peice of toast and boom only 4 hitmans
Andy Mcp Or when the game suddenly decides not to make a noise when a body is found or an innocent dies, which it does EVERY OTHER TIME I SWEAR. I'm fricking sitting there reading tweets while I wait for poison to work knowing that the game will tell me if I get the wrong guy. Thanks a lot, Elusive Target Guide.
What about when you are about to knock out a guard who can't see you in any way, but when you go to make the move they psychically notice you, spin around 180° and try to punch you while making the loudest noise ever known to humanity.
Super Mario Kart. Have you ever noticed that, if you end up off the track, Lakitu takes *FOREVER* to retrieve you? And, when he finally gets around to grabbing you, he *Conveniently* waits until half the pack has passed you before setting you down again? Don't tell me someone isn't paying him off!
And in the newer games, if they rescue you, they take some of your money. I'm now convinced that the Lakitu's are running some underground money laundering scheme and are using these Mario Kart tournaments as a front
Did you ever notice Skynet and Google are both 6 letters? One is an evil computer bent on taking over humanity. The other was in the movie 'The Terminator'.
The alien AI uses a simple system that utilises 2 AI`s at the same time. The first AI or the 'Body'can only control the aliens body and its movements. The second AI, the 'Brain' always knows where you are but will only give hints to the body controlling AI. This usually follows the system where the brain gives the body a hint every 20 seconds or so and you can see this in-game when the alien will suddenly change direction. Hints are also given when you make a noise or when you run. After the section in the infirmary, the time between hints decreases to 10 seconds and later on to 5. To stop the alien working like a heat seeking missile, a third AI is introduced to give false hints. This is also why you can see the alien go up into the vents to look at another part of the level. Difficultly doesn't really change these values, just adds more detail to the hints making you easier to find.
Thank you for pointing this out.. I was thinking of the video explaining this when they said something along the lines of "it's unclear if this is intentional or not" in the video. This group constantly makes claims that can be thrown out the window after > 2 mins research.. apparently cheesy comedy in the form of ignorance beats facts and proper information when it comes to their priorities.
That reminds me of the funniest thing that's ever happened to me in RDR me and my friend were bored and assholes kept killing our horses so we ran out into the wild to get away from that we get near a train track next to a water fall when I say "Alright I think we're good" as soon as I said that a cougar came up from behind me and ripped my asshole wide open and my friend is panicking shouting "Oh shit! Oh shit!" shoots at the cougar with all 6 rounds from his revolver and missed every shot you can guess what happened next. We couldn't stop laughing for hours. And about 5 years later I'm playing GTA 5 standing next to my friends car which he placed on the train tracks I'm standing next to his car to scare him because he was messing with his phone I tell him to look up and right as he does I hear a train coming turn to see how far away it is and as soon as I did I turned into a red smear on the side of my friends car I laughed so hard I woke my neighbors up. I learned after that night though I should never stand by train tracks in a video game it always means deaths cold embrace is coming
I had two saves, on one I was nearly 100%ed and the jackalope was one of the last things I needed. I scoured the West high and low, and couldn't come across it. On my piss around and shoot everything save, I was riding between towns and randomly got the point when I accidentally ran it over with my horse.
I can think of several stealth games where I'm escaping a pursuer and they go an illogical route to look for me, not even pretending they don't know exactly where I am. Sometimes I'll see their head track me trough a concrete wall as they come around the corner. Might as well have dialogue accompany it. _"Oh gee I wonder where he iiiis"_
I call it psychic game bullshit. Same thing when fighting game AI just reads your inputs instead of reacting AFTER a reasonably decent human-length reaction time. Nope, he reacts to your shit before you even see it happen on screen, reading your buttons the millisecond you press it. They mainly do this because they're pretty lazy with "AI" design in games, especially fighting games where the prevailing "logic" is just "oh well the main point is fighting other people or going online, so what's the point?" The point is not to be lazy and cut corners just because you think it "doesn't matter" lol. You could make that excuse about *a lot* of different things but that doesn't mean you should start doing it.
Dishonered had this, I am taking a sleeping dude around the building after avoiding 99% of the guards my see through wall vision runs out right around the time Steve mic fucko walks around to see me and alert half the building to my location causing me to get spotted and thats all in the split second before I kill him
MrMadeMoso So much YES. How the hell can I escape the police's sight, drive to an out of the way alleyway to climb an enormous ladder to the top of a skyscraper and STILL be caught because the police sent ONE GUY, one incredibly determined, omniscient bastard to climb all the way up after me and look/make a beeline to my EXACT location?! Oh and of course my wanted level isn't lost for way longer than usual whilst this happens!
He was right. Al Capone was a medically induced amnesiac after he was on Terminal Island. He lived for years after that forgetting his entire past life. The authorities medicated him past legal restraints.
Alien Isolation was actually meant to be like that. The beginning of the game its not hard to hide but throughout the game the Alien learns and picks up on the actions you take to avoid it, checking areas more thoroughly making it more difficult.
The ai is bullshit and pissed me off many times before I beat it. It learned that I was damn good at the game so to make it harder it made it impossible. Wanted so much flamethrower because i literally couldn’t progress without it all the time.
In GTA Online when you are delivering a car and an NPC decides that it has to make a uturn across all three lanes of the highway and knocks you into a lake
Lol. I remember doing a Pacific Standard heist months ago and we decided to use the bikes and go on the highway (a glitch we were doing didn't work). A van literally drove across all lanes just to run me over and kill me. I just went to bed after that.
How about that moment in any racing game ever, where you're a few seconds from the finish of a very hard race and an ai truck just happens to turn in front of you, costing you the race and your sanity :/
I hate the rubberbanding that occurs in 95% of racing games. It rarely does it to your benefit (ie if you're in last place, the leader goes slowly). But if you're in the lead with a record breaking time, the second place car is right on your tail.
This was the most frustrating part of the Burnout series. Suddenly, not only was the AI rubber banding, it seemed like the traffic was all out specifically to murder you like you'd run over their dog this morning.
The developers said the xenomorph had two programs, one that knows where you are, and gives hints to the others, and one that searches for you using said hint.
Yea, i always chalked it up to ai cheating when it found me and shouldn’t have because really the game knows where you are all the time so it has to pretend it doesn’t.
Yeah. The part that knows where you are tries to give hints but it's the ignorant part that gets to drive and use environmental clues like noise makers. It's why the pacing and tension of that game are sublime.
You know that inconvenient tiger got me an achievement in Far Cry Three, to take out a stronghold without any of them realising I was there, I found a hold with three pirates and marked them, about to go out, then I see one of them disappear, then another, turn around a corner to see what happend and tge tiger ran towards the last guy and killed him, then it gave me the achievement
My Far Cry 3 experience - case an outpost - find a suitable sniping spot - grab a bow - watch the pirate patrol routines - find alarms - spot everyone - pull the string on the bow - GET POUNDED BY A KOMODO DRAGON
WWE2K17 is the worst offender of any wrestling game. My opponent is flat on the mat, no health left, bleeding like a stuck pig. If wrestling wasn't fake I would be arrested for attempted murder. I feel a rare stab of pity for the pile of raw flesh that was my opponent and pin him. The Ref? He wanders aimlessly towards us and slowly lowers himself to the mat. At this point he says One! Then the ref forgets what he was on the mat for and stares into space. Remembering that there is still a match going on he says Two! Then he thinks to himself, did I leave the stove on? No I must have turned it off before I left. Do I need to buy milk on the way home? The grocery store will probably be closed by the time I leave here. What was I doing? Oh yes I was counting. Thr!! He kicked out at two and a half!
There's this WWE wrestler, Xavier Woods, who plays WWE2K17 on his TH-cam channel. At some point he faced Seth Rollins playing as himself, and after giving Rollins a bloody face and hitting his finisher 4 freaking times, Rollins was still kicking out like his life depended on it. Hilarious to watch.
Christopher Panossian I hope they fix that in WWE2K18. I hated doing career mode because I always needed two signatures and one finisher. It's madness!
Ryan Pinder or pass it to the only person in front of you Or concede 2 fucking goals in the 80 somtint minute even though youve had 20+ shots and the other team havnt even got one
Ryan Pinder That's so fucking annoying. It happens so often to me. I swear that bs is on purpose, I literally spam tge button but it doesn't even change to the one player who could do something
FIFA isn't really much rigged, stamina and player stress takes hold and you forget that the AI has a scripted amount of getting things done. You're job is to prevent it, but millions of players get nervous and then blame the ai for screwing you over. The AI is SUPPOSED to beat you idiots, just like a real life team. I understand what you guys feel, but alot of the times we blame the ai's instead of yourselfs. The best FIFA players in the world know how to control these things from happening, and if you mean how does ai, or other people score impossible goals? its because the game has an unrealistic ball speed which often is too fast of an animation for the goalkeepers to even begin a save animation (its not the reactions of the gk itself) also when it comes to crosses and header, for the longest time Goalkeepers didnt even have save animations for particular headers so thats why it goes in and people think it's rigged. They didnt even have defending wing animations for lobbed ball defending until 16 think. one of the reasons why wing running was OP in earlier titles.
I've always found it odd in certain games where when enemies turn into allies, they always seem to be less powerful or more stupid. This also includes cutscene interactions. 10 minutes ago when you were trying to kill me you could take a shot to the face, now that were on the same team you die in 2 seconds.
That pull at the end of the Alien section made me jump out of my chair, even though I knew it was coming... and that's why games like that in my nope list.
It's a lesser known game, but how about IL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey? If you play the campaign on simulator mode, the best fighter aircraft in the game that you've spent the whole game that you've been looking forward to the whole time are almost useless. The Mk XI Spitfire has an unreliable engine that disintegrate when any part of your plane gets hit and breaks completely for no reason if you take a randomly selected amount of time too long. The legendary P-51 Mustang has an engine that runs on stupidly low power the whole mission, a poorly balanced fuel load that makes it handle like an 18 wheeler with no tires except when it doesn't - at which point it instead flips upside down or goes into a spin as soon as you so much as breathe on the stick - and the engine drops its power at a random point of its own choosing to about a third of whatever nothing it gave you in the first place. Oh, and that's not even counting how the missions in the Mustang are at least partly ground attack and in the second one you're given only enough ammo to have like two shots left over if you hit every shot, which is to all intents and purposes impossible since you're not even guaranteed a hit if you fire so close you nearly ram the target, land the rockets *on* the target, and have to fly through the flames of the explosion to pull up: and of course when you pull up with surgical precision from your 10 to 20 degree dive it flips upside down and plows the fields below with your face just for giggles. Oh, and did I mention the I-16 Type 24? It was a perfectly capable aircraft when it was built, if rather hard to fly as a very early monoplane, but what the hell does Birds of Prey think it's doing serving up one with the world's most fragile engine in the fifth mission to fight multiple squadrons of *not outdated* fighters and bombers while backed up by forty-odd other obsolete planes who love nothing more than to shoot through you, ram you, and waste fifteen minutes or so all chasing a single fighter so that they can finally hit and shoot it down at the exact moment you engage it for no discernable reason other than to keep you flying from point to point for an hour to waste your precious little fuel supply so that you lose power when the bombers arrive and crash when you try to glide the rickety twitchy rust bucket down onto whatever field you find only to have the landing gear collapse every damn time. ...*breathes slowly while lying on a psychiatrist's sofa*
That's not a far fetched idea. In the GTA world you can track cellphone signals and some unspecified government object, with an app that any jo-schmo can download onto a smart phone. I don't see it being all that far fetched that the police have the trackify app and follow your cellphone signal, since you can never turn it off.
Every multiplayer game ever made in the history of ever has been specifically and maliciously designed to put me and very SPECIFICALLY ME on a team of cross eyed brain dead drooling infants who've had both their thumbs amputated and every sane and competent player on the opposing team. I have made LITERAL (not figurative) graphs and spreadsheets showing that I statistically suffer more "bad luck" than my opponents so don't try to tell me I'm "paranoid" or "a sore loser" or "George seriously it's just a game put the hand grenade down!"
George Sears I feel this. Every time I'm on a team trying to play an objective, my team mates always assume it's just a deathmatch game and truck right off defending or advancing. It's the most annoying thing ever, being the only one on your team to get any capture or defense points in CTF games.
TheLastWiller But I won the second term elections! The Shadow Moses Incident took place on February 28th 2005, 1 month after the inauguration of the 2004 winner meaning that I had to have won it! But then I was forced to leave office because Lalilulelo didn't take kindly to my whole "Attempted coup" deal which only failed because SOMEONE (not naming names, but it rhymes with "Blocelot") decided to betray me for absolutely no reason! I knew I never should have trusted him... three times.
Oh, the Alien in Alien: Isolation absolutely cheats, at least on the hardest difficulty. I once counted, in exasperation, how many times it came back looking for me. In that large medical/operation area I was hiding in a room, of course, and I heard the alien leave. So I slowly sneak out and the alien comes back into the area, so I hide back in the room. A minute later the alien walks by, then comes back into the room. After looking around it leaves through a vent again. So I'd sneak out and once out of the room it came running back! It did this NINE TIMES IN A ROW! I'd swear It felt like I was hiding in that room for a full hour before the ridiculous game let me finally leave that room and continue on.
I saw in other comments about the same game that as the game progresses, the alien begins to learn how you act so it can counteract more accurately. That's probably why the alien kept doing that. It was learning your actions.
It's been a while but if I remember right, it's more aggressive when you get to the medical area. It calmed down again once I completed an objective there. Which might have been a gamey mechanic to make it seem as though the alien calms down after a while. If you read the messages in the computers at the security office, it tells you about some incident that may have contributed to the alien's sour mood. There is some randomness regarding the experience you have. My friend had no problem with some of the areas that troubled me. And I made quick work of some of the places he had a terrible time with.
Yea the police in gta5 infuriate me. Not only are they really hard to get away from unless you happen to be near a tunnel or go far off-road before being spotted prior to 3 stars, but their cars also seem to have rocket engines when chasing you and are able to ram your increasingly fast super cars with their decidedly not even sports car patrol vehicles at a speed roughly double your own. That is what gets me extremely angry at the game. I can be going around 200 mph in a Lamborghini lookalike, and the can still ram me in their Crown Victoria lookalikes. The f gta? Seriously, the f.
A classic of course was the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy text game, which had two tools of which you could only carry one to a specific location - and would require you to have whichever one you hadn't carried.
That's why you were supposed to find all the fluffs to grow the fluff fruit and eat it after drinking both your "tea" and your "no tea" so that you could get a vision of what tool Marvin would ask you for.
Rick Astley singing Never Gonna Give You Up is not a screw over unless he did give one of you up? He hurt you didn't he Mike? Loved and left. DAMN YOU ASTLEY!
Actually surprised pokemon isn't here. I swear ai has a vastly greater chance of inflicting status, hit through stuff like confusion and paralysis. Basically RNG in their favor.
Michael Berresford if Pokemon was on here it would be for not being able to be defeated by ohko moves. I discovered this was in leaf green( against blue with a kingler with goitine and in heart gold I metronomed a fissure against Whitney's clefairy in heart gold too . Then they metronomed a shear cold and it worked on me.
Zorua Fox ohko moves work like this: if the pokemon being targeted is a higher level, then the ohko move will never hit (that's for all games) and if the targeted pokemon is lower leveled, then the ohko move gains 1% of accuracy for each level. If the pokemon are the same level, then it's always a 30% chance.
Michael Berresford they actually don't have increased chances, it's basically a dice roll or coin flip everytime. Human nature makes people always want it happen but when it doesn't, it annoys them. Kinda like gambling. But when it comes to Pokemon, it's all in the values of number rolls: from damage, buffs/debuffs, and even getting wurmple to evolve into silcoon or cascoon (don't get me started)
Well if you add them to the blooper section for Xtra's Show of the Weekend, I will gladly watch a montage of Andy horrendously failing to properly shoot rubber bands.
How about every time I play Mario kart. The Ai MAGICALLY get 5 red and blue shells in a row. I swear it's not an excuse for me getting cocky and sitting on the finish line...
Kingofthepoos123 here's a tip play online. If you play with actual players you would only need to have skill and hope not to be pelted with shells by the resident sharp shooter of the lobby. Yet if you get a huge lead you are alone only threatened by the shock, blue shell, and red shell
Mirko Antonini A full court shot is where some one is on their side of the court shooting deep into the opposition basket. Us 2K players like to call that Limitless Range on Hall Of Fame
Austin Stewart yea I was starting to figure out the aliens moves in the game so I started avoiding doing dum shit. Then I started realizing that the alien was starting to catch on to my moves and by the time I knew I got fucked over few times and had to come up with something different to finish the game.
Huh that’s interesting. Think that was that shooting one can’t remember, but well, when it comes to games where I have to aim. I can’t aim properly, so I came up with the smarter idea of shooting in the opposite direction and it works, that game probably would be hell for me.
Actually it doesn't. There are two AI programs: a director which always knows where you are and gives general hints, and the xenomorph who follows the hints according to a skill tree which gradually unlocks.
Wait, Jane is *Misery*? Are we sure the reason why Andy and Mike haven't escaped from her murderous clutches ISN'T due to being hobbled by a giant sledgehammer? Has anyone seen their feet lately? Oh god.
I preferred to think of her as Ruby Gloom's Misery. I just hope everyone else at OutsideBox gives her lots of room so they're not in danger from the lightning strikes concentrated on her position.
how about on skyrim and its archery, Ive lost count of the amount of times I've shot an arrow where someone is/going to be only to have them stop for no reason halfway through their patrol, turn on a coin and go the other way or randomly burst into a sprint/speed slide out of the way of the arrow while you're in sneak mode and there should have been no reason the npc acted like that. Hell I even had one moment where a bandit was standing next to a chest and as soon as I let loose on the arrow she turned around and used the chest making herself duck and the arrow went over her head. -_- Its not just me either Ive seen this stuff happen to ESO when he does his skyrim videos.
i have that happen all the time! i usually go for a sneak archer and sometimes the npcs will literally slide sideways in order to evade my arrow. keep in mind IM LITERALLY SNEAKING
That happened to me a lot in The Last of Us, when im trying to clear a room with the bow and I'm trying to headshot everyone for a clean kill. Clickers were the worst. Call me a perfectionist but I restart at last check point everytime those fuckers suddenly decide to move out of the way. It's like they had spider sense. It's like they knew I was aiming for their head. Fucking annoying.
Anthony Bruno literally. It's so annoying. I got a mod that disables their sixth sense though, and now that doesn't happen to me anymore. so now if I miss, it's because I suck, not so much the A.I.
How about in Pokemon when the gym leaders always just so HAPPEN to score a critical hit directly before I defeat their best Pokemon, and then always hits me with that Full Restore and wipes my entire team with a flurry of magical critical hits???
Wyatt Roberson It's even worse on a pirated copy of Fire Red at least. Maybe it's just me but a friend handed down his GBA and LeafGreen and FireRed recently. The FireRed is pirated based on the cartridge label and the whole "The save file is ok" message upon selecting 'Continue' that I've never seen in a legit copy. I swear to God there is an obvious bias in favor of the AI throughout the whole game what with how regularly the AI (Wild and Trainer battles) land critical hits. At first I thought the RNG was just uncommonly unlucky but then I began to see a pattern and I'm assuming it's an anti-piracy measure to troll people courtesy of GameFreak.
Midnight Club Los Angeles. You can be half a lap ahead for the whole damn race, then an Escalade appears out of nowhere as you drift the last corner, with no way to steer around it as you slide sideways at 150mph, which allows every other racer to pass you within sight of the finish line. especially prominent in pink slip races, just to make sure you lose all of your cars trying to get the other guys one. this game is also severely guilty of the "rubber banding" you spoke of. there is no way a Mitsubishi should be able to beat a Lamborghini consistently.
i raced against caleb's car on hard. Beat him on the first try, He was like 1000 feet away. Only cheat I used was getting the RX 8 as my starter car. That was it, no money.
I Hate rubber banding on NFS games. You can see them sometimes after a AI wrecks or just falls way behind, you will see their icon travel thru the map without using the roads.
As with GTA V, it's the same deal with the 5'o if you decide to.. say, hide in an alley. Cops decide to stop their car a few meters away and DECIDE TO JUST SEARCH THAT ONE ALLEYWAY or maybe even climb that one ladder to the roof that you're on.
Half Life 2 Episode 1. This is a bit of a game-breaker but do-able. When you arrive at the train station for the final fight, use the gravity gun to manually move RPG rounds (the loose ones lying around the ammo crate outside) to the passenger escape area. Take as many as you want over, but make sure you have enough to bring down a strider (5, so 3 in your inventory plus a couple of spares). Go back, kick off the ending battle, take down the Combine forces, escort the citizens out, trigger the last sequence of dialog with Alyx. The Strider that chases you through the shipping container area will show up. Use your carried RPG rounds to take it out before it can fuck up the gate and force you to cross over the crates and duel it along the way. Yay! You won and can just walk out without that tedious firefight on the gantries, dealing with mines, the ever-present Strider, and so on, right? *WRONG!* If you take down the Strider before it traps you into said tedious fire-fight...the computer spawns another. Oh no, mister, you're _going_ to do this fight _our_ way! - Valve Software (probably). Just for shits and giggles I turned on cheats, god-mode, and gave myself another pile of RPG rounds and it spawned a _third_ Strider.
Fun note: In the Mario Kart Wii game (for the original wii), you can avoid the blue shell. I've done it twice. If you have a mushroom boost, you can hit it just as the shell is about to dive and escape the blast radius. Or if you have a bomb-omb, you can throw it in front of you and the shell can follow it instead. But I think those might be bugs. The best way to avoid the blue shell is to go into a cannon.
i once downloaded mario party onto an emulator to see if the dice rolls were actually random. turns out theyre all decided at the beginning of the match.
Kevlar Moneyclips A computer can't actually randomly generate a number the way a person does. A simple RNG system has a long list of numbers the developers created that it runs through as number rolls are required. Thus, a person could theoretically play through such a system, memorize the rolls, and then go back and know ahead of time what the rolls will be if its position on the list is saved with all the other data. That's only for a really basic system though, and I'm sure modern developers have a more sophisticated process that gives you different results every playthrough.
Guys, you've missed the Grand Emperor of cheating games: Civilization. On harder difficulties, any version of Civ would drive Ghandi to using nukes.... Oh, I get it now.
not really cheating, originally just a bug (a problem of having an aggressivity parameter so low from the start that the value often went under zero and circled back to the max aggro (computers logic) when any player's decision lowered ennemy aggressivity) and players found it so funny that the developers kept it for subsequent games.
Jonathan Holmberg the reason for that is Civ AI can't predict human behavior..Yet, so the AI cheats to have an advantage. That's why the Germans always have nukes to threaten me with when I fought them a half hour ago when all they had was swords and spears
Gandhi was just a bug. His aggro was so low that if he picked some religious traits the parameter would go below zero and that was interpreted as a 14 (in a zero to 12 scale. So he could nuke you before you could even build one nuke)
that guy Sorry to tell you this, but Communism is a myth. Humans are greedy, so a society where everyone is truly equal cannot exist. Anything else is not actually communism. Thus, there is not, has never been, and will never be a true communist society. There are only pretenders.
The alien one isn't cheating. It actually learns how you hide n run n play. It's a learning alien, that's what makes the game much harder the better you play.
You think GTAV is bad, remember GTA San Andreas? Get the highest wanted level and say goodbye cop cars, hello infinite tanks, and unlike GTAV in San Andreas you cant hide until they go away. I've literally used a flying car to get from San Feirro to Los Santos and as soon as I landed on the ground, infinite tanks.
YPP luckily you used a flying car but if you try to fly in a legit flying vehicle, like a helicopter or a plane, and you got 6 star wanted level they send jets after you.
On the plus side if you get in a jet before getting that wanted level the ensuing dogfight is quite fun. I loved doing that. I had one time where I was in active combat with them for over an hour. It’s like Ace Combat gta edition, lol.
Will Huey I you also didn’t have the police after you just for being on someone’s lawn though (I’ve literally had npcs call police on me for just standing there in gta 5)
Come on. Where is X COM? The game that has screwing you over as a dayjob? I mean it is possible to miss a crucial 100% flankshot. And the game does it often and with a straight face.
From what I've heard, there are two AI brains in control of the Alien. One is the forebrain that patrols and hunts you, and the other one knows exactly where you are at all times, and gives small hints to the forebrain. The farther in the game you are, or the better you are at avoiding it, the more the forebrain pays attention to the hints, hence the better it gets at hunting you
I forget which wwe game it was (maybe 2007) where you could spam the reversal button and almost always reverse the ability unless you didn't know which type of move they where going for. I also prefer the button mash to avoid a 3 count rather than the stupid minigame prompt to get the line in the colored spot. There should be an option to return some key features to the older format
What about the original battlefront 2? Ai will only aim at you and completly ignore every other stormtrooper that's storming the base of those filthy rebels on hoth with you.
Yeah, but you're also a far better shot than the idiot AI if you're any good at console shooters at all, which means your K/D will be like a dozen to one.
Cyreex Did you forget the fact that the AIs can't even aim down on the fucking Jawas and Master Yoda? It pissed me off seeing that they can't aim down at small beings...
Actually, I loved that. It made the Endor: Hunt mission nearly impossible, since the Ewoks won like 100% of the time. Winning it was just about the hardest thing to do in that damn game. (Also, a crouching Yoda could hide under the swamp in Dagobah, becoming completely invisible. My brother fell for it so much, it was wonderful.)
Stevethebarbarian I figured out how to win the endor hunting mission with the empire, order as many troops to follow you as you can (you don't really need them for fighting it's just that the more troops are with you the less likely they are to get themselves killed) then fire away at the ewoks also plant a turrant sense the direction of the fire will often help you find ewoks which is hard sense they are tiny and their weapons are completely silent
I think any game with RNG is bad, but Pokemon always seems to give you a critical hit when you desperately want to catch that rare Pokemon! I guess that's why I should have bothered with False Swipe...
Once you have Surf and Fly, that shouldn't be a problem as the only prototype that took scientists decades to perfect can easily be duplicated by a ten year old boy using a glitch in the matrix.
The only game I have little issue with RNG is earth defence force 4.1 the shadow of new despair, as it gives you a selection of weapons from any weapon crates you pick up, mostly weapons you already have, But that said its a fixed selection but randomly put picks the weapons on level and difficulty played
I would think "M. Bison" has been mainly used for fighting games, such as Mortal Kombat 11, Street Fighter V, Tekken 7, etc. I also would think it can be used for other types of games that has to do with winning rounds for "Best of Three" matches.
X-Com! When you move a soldier right next to the last remaning alien to finish it of with a clear open 95 % shot... and it misses... or the enemy dodges so you do to little damage to kill it... or the move happens to reveal yet another enemy squad that was lurking at the edge of the map. And then that soldier gets butchered and your remaning soldiers panic.
Reminds me of a GIF I saw of a dude in X-COM running up to an alien, at POINT-BLANK RANGE, with a 97% shot... and the guy shoots a bush that's like 2 feet away from the alien. >< WT actual F, game.
This is even worse if said soldier is using a SHOTGUN. Which is literally the best weapon to use in close quarters combat. And really should not miss at point blank range.
You guys forgot FarCry 2. It had a weapon jam/malfunction system to mimic supposed real gun failures. Except-when you're about to shoot at an enemy-your gun just mysteriously jams or blows up. Oh yeah, your gun would in fact blow up and you don't have it anymore. So you purchase a new one, let's say a brand new pump action shotgun. Fire off 5 or 6 rounds to make sure it works. Then go about your game. You come across some enemy, aim and squeeze the trigger-'click'. Jammed. Brand new from the weapon shop, and just happens to jam when you face an enemy. Very nice. Great video by the way guys
Once you buy a gun you can go take as many as you want for free though (also it's been a while so I don't remember but I think only explosive weapons like the rpg blow up, shotguns and stuff only jam)
I didn't like the whole thing where you would kill everyone at a checkpoint, turn around to get something, and they were already back at the checkpoint. I also thought it was crazy how much the AI would intentionally smash a Jeep or whatnot into your vehicle and unload from the mounted gun into you. Like, head-on collision just to stop you.
+Cheyenne winter yeah, almost all guns/rpgs would either malfunction and eventually blow up in your hands. You're right, you can always pick up unlimited ones at the weapon shop. Point was the AI seemed to determine your guns NEEDS to jam, right when you're in a firefight. Rpgs couldn't jam, but the grenade would flip out of the tube and plop to the ground...spin around...and then blow up. Real nice ubisoft
I think I remember now actually, the guns sorta shatter after a while don't they? I usually got sick of unjamming weapons and got a new one before it gets that far
Using the same "Hold button while selecting character" secret that lets you play Shin Akuma when used on normal Akuma, you can actually play as Super M-Bison by using it on M Bison who locked into X-ISM and most definitely able to use the Super Psycho-Crusher.
Company of Heroes: Fogs of war doesnt apply to A.I. at key moments. The map was divided by a river with a destroyed bridge and theres zero options available to the AI to see the far reaches of my side, yet the AI knows exactly where my elite units are hidden to randomly fire the Calliope rockets at. I initially accepted this as a good guess and move them to another part of the map. A few minutes later, it fires its next barrage into a totally different area, hitting my relocated hidden units again. This happened multiple times proving the fogs of war are not applicable to the AI.
And if you play on the highest difficulty, the AI produce units from nowhere, for no resosurces, doubles the outcome of the production AND can build units from buildings that can't build units (tried with panzerwaffe AI)
Every moving platform puzzle section in every game ever. You time it perfectly yet its suddenly a few centimetres out of your reach. Coincidence? I THINK NOT!
The endboss of the first prototype. Not only was he impossibly strong and fast compared to all the other enemies you fought but you were also forced to rush atacks against "it" because you were against a damn timer!
call of duty on veteran mode. Mainly world at war. The ai get alot more grenade prone and there's literally times where there's 5 grenades that land right infront of you and all you can do is accept death
That's why the newer Tetris games use a bucket randomizer. It throws each piece into a bag, and pulls them out one at a time until you hit one of each before shuffling them up again. Also I've heard the Alien has two AIs, one that controls movement but doesn't know where you are, and one that knows where you are and feeds the first one hints if it's stumped.
Okay, can I just say that I *HATE* the Mario Kart Blue Shell! It serves no actual purpose other than to screw up the guy in 1st. I've never seen anyone get it in a position where it could actually help the person who throws it, making it a completely useless item to get, and on top of that, it screws up the guy in 1st and likely the one in 2nd as well. It is the game almost literally saying "screw you" to the person in 1st. It seems like Nintendo kind of figured this out when they made the horn, the one item that can defend against it other than a perfectly timed mushroom, but that's hardly enough. If you ask me, it should just be removed from the game entirely.
WWE 2K17 - Someone distracts you after the match starts, no matter when in the match and what your health is. Nothing actually happens to you, but after the distraction cutscene, magically your whole body is in the yellow and suddenly you're injured and sluggish. Also, whenever the CPU is out of the ring and the ref counts to 8, NO MATTER WHAT YOU DID TO THEM, if this move was preformed before the count of 5, they have auto resurrection ability and magically sprint to the ring. Also, if the count gets too high outside while fighting, the CPU has this magic *AUTO COUNTER ANY MOVE* so it can then run to the ring before the count of 10. Psychic Imperial Guards in Oblivion. You steal a piece of cheese in an empty house and suddenly the entire Empire comes down on your head. Command & Conquer - Highest difficulty in Skirmish allows the CPU to have twice the funds and three times the building speed and they come at you with unit diarrhea before you barely have any defenses or anything built.
What about XCOM Enemy Unknown? There you are, one day way from a major project completion when most of your best soldiers are in the infirmary and suddenly 3 UFO spawn and completely wreck your stuff
Playing Rainbow 6 Vegas on coop my buddy and I found that the AI always knew where at least one of us were. For example I could actually watch an ai aim his weapon and follow my buddies movements even when he was behind a wall. Even if the AI was behind a wall they literally knew exactly where he was.
ufc undisputed 2010 was messed up in the career mode. If you enter the championship fight with a really good record (i was 7-1, 7 KOs), the champion just rushes to you, takes you down, and gets you in a submission. Submissions from the computer are virtually inescapable and this was all on the easiest mode
deiondre0 Thank the higher powers someone else knows this pain. I was 1 win away from the "UFC record" in game. And I got walked up on during my next match, and subbed in seconds. I thought I was alone on this madness.
Three. There's Three AIs. The "Body" controls the Xenomorph. It hunts you down, and learns the weapons you use. For example, the flamethrower becomes less effective the more you use it, and instead of chasing thrown items it starts looking for where it was thrown from later on. The "True Brain" Sees everything including you, and gives the Xenomorph hints every 20 second early on, 10 seconds about halfway in, and 5 seconds in the late game. (you can see when a hint is given when it suddenly changes directions) It also gives hints every time you run or make noise. The one rule is that the True Brain can and will not give the Xenomorph your exact location, but rather gives more specific hints as the game goes on. The "False Brain" is what makes the game "fair" and playable. If the False Brain didn't exist the Xenomorph would act like a heat-seeking missile to your location. What it does is appear in the late game to randomly give fake hints to the Xenomorph. You can see this in effect when the Xenomorph is coming towards you an suddenly goes the opposite direction and into a vent towards the wrong side of the map.
JakeSnake07 you stole a few bits of that comment from another comment. The false brain part with the alien going through the vents and also the heat seeking missile part. The true brain part where they make it more detailed information to find you. Also when you said "you can see when a hint is given when the alien suddenly changes directions." It's fine to explain what you read, but don't just copy a section or sections of that thing you read word for word.
Ben Spurrier the Xeno does learn and remember the more you hide in the same places to often and can find you easier if you hide there more and more, like in lockers or under desks
+ refunded refund I did see that guy's comment, yes, however none of the information there was anything new to people such as myself who kept track of any Alien Isolation news. The only part that I did "steal" was using the term "Heat-Seeking Missile" to describe the Xenomorph finding the player quickly, as I found that to be a far better description than just saying "If the False Brain didn't exist the Xenomorph would immediately track down your location."
Pokemon Sun and Moon's Battle Tree is a nightmare. Computer players in Pokemon usually get better chances at random status effects/buff/critical hits, but the Battle Tree takes it up another level by specifically picking any and every Pokemon that can perfectly counter your team while getting a buff to those better status effect chances. And it doesn't stop there because every iteration of the game since Emerald has had some battle facility with the same cheating way, getting worse along the way.
Howza bout that "Fatal Four Way" where the game LITERALLY TELLS YOU to wait while they study your team and make one of the cpu's have the exact kryptonite.
vernanonix yeah bro in Pokemon Emerald I went to the battle Pike or pyramid or something and I beat everybody than I get to the frontier boss whatever they were called back then and she trashes me i was so confused but I basically lost because of status effects you ever notice how you get confused and you can only land like 1 and 5 moves but your opponent gets confused paralyzed or anything like that and moves like nothing ever happened in fact they move better than before sometime tbh
The Kid Heem emerald frontier can be predicted and isn't too difficult if you have half decent IVs and can be arsed to EV train your pokes, that said, back then there was no simple way of checking IVs or EV training, making the competitive scene niche as getting good pokemon stats was an utter ball ache.
The Kid Heem IV "training" is only possible in sun and moon with the introduction of hyper training, which can only be done to a pokemon at level 100. In previous games IVs cannot be manipulated and are determined the moment you meet a wild pokemon. In all games post gen 2, Perfect IVs can only be obtained through breeding as hyper training is registered as a power up and doesn't actually increase any IVs and therefore does not affect breeding.
Everything in the XCOM series. If you think two is nasty, take a look back at some of the originals Terror from the Deep is considered, I think the hardest, or certainly way up there on the hardest XCOM games ever released.
Terror mission. Land at night. It's Chryssalids. There's an alien ready to toss a grenade into your Skyranger on turn 1. XCOM EU/EW/2: "99% chance to hit? Yeah, I'll take it." UFO Defence/Terror from the Deep: "Something will hit eventually."
In Alien Isolation there are two ai's. One is the "director" and the other controls the alien. The director gives hints to the alien ai throughout the game. In the beginning, the director only helps the alien a little, and will have it try to follow you more than predict where you're going. Later on, the director will give more accurate hints and will also help the alien cut you off. The director will try to get the alien to outsmart you, by seeing how you evaded the alien before that, making the alien more likely to see through plans you have used before.
I like that mechanic actually. The Alien should learn, and then (spoilers for those who have not played it even after a couple years) when you get to the hive and realise the alien you booted out into space was the only one it is only right the other Aliens actually have a better understanding since you're in their home, there's more than one and they're the nest guardians.
The Tetris part hit a chord with me because I’ve played an obscene amount of Splatoon 3 Tableturf, and it sucks when I have the perfect spot to play a specific card and get a ton of special points, and either a. The card never comes, b. The spot is filled up when you do get that card, or c. When you play the card, you get none of those special points because there’s still one empty space bordering the special tiles.
"Still itchy, still tasty" omfg i literally lol'ed at that one and woke up my roommate in the next room. Also, got a good laugh from the "Snitches get stitches" comment, since i often hear my pre-teen children say exactly that, in much the same way lol. Oh and I definitely agree with the games listed too.
The freaking desire sensor in the Monster Hunter series, I swear I had to hunt Hyper Silver Rathalos 5 times for a Hyper S. Rath Scale, normally 70-some % drop rate
That's probably more an issue regarding the guys who are even less willing to take an L and leave before the end of the game. Though a good game would at least know who to punish.
Say this one right out BLITZBALL. I Swear every time an enemy team mate would Attack or Pass or Shoot they always always ALWAYS got extra points or for some reason my 10 attack would always do 2 or miss where as their 5 attacks always crit. I just want the damn weird shaped trophy Goers Sheeeshhh
LOL hell yeah it is. Was my only hope getting one off when i get control of Tidus and one more before Wakka comes in then i try to score with him but usually just keep him and the ball far away from the goers
Kace KTV just replayed this part literally this week. I swear, I thought I was doing well. I haven't ever won before but I had a tie and literally last minute, I had a goal that should've took and then it didn't and they then scored on me with maybe 2 seconds left. Blitzball is the bane of my existence... As in, I'd like Bane to blow up the stadium.
The best example in my experience of the game screwing you up is Megaman ZX there is an optional boss called 'Omega' and if you have life hacks he will literally do a move where he disables your hacks or simply ignore the coding(not really sure how it works) and damage you not regarding the hack plus the fight is hard as as hell in any dificulty.
In Hitman spending ages trying to get a perfect score on a mission only to learn in the debriefing that one guard thought he saw your face in the clouds, or in a peice of toast and boom only 4 hitmans
Andy Mcp Or when the game suddenly decides not to make a noise when a body is found or an innocent dies, which it does EVERY OTHER TIME I SWEAR. I'm fricking sitting there reading tweets while I wait for poison to work knowing that the game will tell me if I get the wrong guy. Thanks a lot, Elusive Target Guide.
That's what you get for Hitmanning during your breaks from being The Messiah.
Andy Mcp What about the civilian that saw a manequin?
*Only* 4 hitmans? I've never played the game myself but I regularly watch OXBox play it and I'm sure you can get 2 or 3 hitmans tops.
What about when you are about to knock out a guard who can't see you in any way, but when you go to make the move they psychically notice you, spin around 180° and try to punch you while making the loudest noise ever known to humanity.
Super Mario Kart. Have you ever noticed that, if you end up off the track, Lakitu takes *FOREVER* to retrieve you? And, when he finally gets around to grabbing you, he *Conveniently* waits until half the pack has passed you before setting you down again? Don't tell me someone isn't paying him off!
Original LMoney Mario Kart 64 made me notice that...
And in the newer games, if they rescue you, they take some of your money. I'm now convinced that the Lakitu's are running some underground money laundering scheme and are using these Mario Kart tournaments as a front
Computers arent out to get you Mike, and you can trust me in that as your local SkyNet representative

Eh, it's not so bad. I'd take Skynet over the Reapers or AM.
Andy Mcp OCP (my company) begs to differ
Andy Mcp that's exactly what a bot would say
Did you ever notice Skynet and Google are both 6 letters? One is an evil computer bent on taking over humanity. The other was in the movie 'The Terminator'.

The alien AI uses a simple system that utilises 2 AI`s at the same time. The first AI or the 'Body'can only control the aliens body and its movements. The second AI, the 'Brain' always knows where you are but will only give hints to the body controlling AI. This usually follows the system where the brain gives the body a hint every 20 seconds or so and you can see this in-game when the alien will suddenly change direction. Hints are also given when you make a noise or when you run. After the section in the infirmary, the time between hints decreases to 10 seconds and later on to 5. To stop the alien working like a heat seeking missile, a third AI is introduced to give false hints. This is also why you can see the alien go up into the vents to look at another part of the level. Difficultly doesn't really change these values, just adds more detail to the hints making you easier to find.
Beni Ray if this is real then this is fucking impressive
it is. there's a video that explains how they made the AI on TH-cam
WhiteTiger link?
Thank you for pointing this out.. I was thinking of the video explaining this when they said something along the lines of "it's unclear if this is intentional or not" in the video. This group constantly makes claims that can be thrown out the window after > 2 mins research.. apparently cheesy comedy in the form of ignorance beats facts and proper information when it comes to their priorities.
Video is called "The perfect organism - The AI of Alien: Isolation", on youtube. You should really check it out.
No mention of Red Dead Redemption?
"Oh look, that final flower I need for this side qu--" *is mauled by a cougar*
Yep I feel you except that happened to me literally right as I was about to blast the jackalope with my revolver.
Amaranth I knife Wild cats to death.
The cougars aren't so much a problem, it's that they always seem to spawn the moment something else is going on.
That reminds me of the funniest thing that's ever happened to me in RDR me and my friend were bored and assholes kept killing our horses so we ran out into the wild to get away from that we get near a train track next to a water fall when I say "Alright I think we're good" as soon as I said that a cougar came up from behind me and ripped my asshole wide open and my friend is panicking shouting "Oh shit! Oh shit!" shoots at the cougar with all 6 rounds from his revolver and missed every shot you can guess what happened next. We couldn't stop laughing for hours. And about 5 years later I'm playing GTA 5 standing next to my friends car which he placed on the train tracks I'm standing next to his car to scare him because he was messing with his phone I tell him to look up and right as he does I hear a train coming turn to see how far away it is and as soon as I did I turned into a red smear on the side of my friends car I laughed so hard I woke my neighbors up. I learned after that night though I should never stand by train tracks in a video game it always means deaths cold embrace is coming
I had two saves, on one I was nearly 100%ed and the jackalope was one of the last things I needed. I scoured the West high and low, and couldn't come across it. On my piss around and shoot everything save, I was riding between towns and randomly got the point when I accidentally ran it over with my horse.
I can think of several stealth games where I'm escaping a pursuer and they go an illogical route to look for me, not even pretending they don't know exactly where I am. Sometimes I'll see their head track me trough a concrete wall as they come around the corner. Might as well have dialogue accompany it. _"Oh gee I wonder where he iiiis"_
Like in Ghost Recon Wildlands, when a random npc sets off the enemy npcs, and they investigate where you are, two towns over?
I call it psychic game bullshit. Same thing when fighting game AI just reads your inputs instead of reacting AFTER a reasonably decent human-length reaction time. Nope, he reacts to your shit before you even see it happen on screen, reading your buttons the millisecond you press it. They mainly do this because they're pretty lazy with "AI" design in games, especially fighting games where the prevailing "logic" is just "oh well the main point is fighting other people or going online, so what's the point?" The point is not to be lazy and cut corners just because you think it "doesn't matter" lol. You could make that excuse about *a lot* of different things but that doesn't mean you should start doing it.
Rhino 'n Chips *LOOKING AT YOU GTA V COPS*
Dishonered had this, I am taking a sleeping dude around the building after avoiding 99% of the guards my see through wall vision runs out right around the time Steve mic fucko walks around to see me and alert half the building to my location causing me to get spotted and thats all in the split second before I kill him
MrMadeMoso So much YES. How the hell can I escape the police's sight, drive to an out of the way alleyway to climb an enormous ladder to the top of a skyscraper and STILL be caught because the police sent ONE GUY, one incredibly determined, omniscient bastard to climb all the way up after me and look/make a beeline to my EXACT location?! Oh and of course my wanted level isn't lost for way longer than usual whilst this happens!
Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.
-Al Capone
True dat
Is that A.I. Capone ???
He was right. Al Capone was a medically induced amnesiac after he was on Terminal Island. He lived for years after that forgetting his entire past life. The authorities medicated him past legal restraints.
@@velvetsky3451 im pretty sure it was actually the (up to his imprisonment) undiagnosed and untreated syphilis.
Also Kurt Cobain...
Alien Isolation was actually meant to be like that. The beginning of the game its not hard to hide but throughout the game the Alien learns and picks up on the actions you take to avoid it, checking areas more thoroughly making it more difficult.
Well, surely that means that if I don't know what I'm doing, it doesn't learn how to counteract me.
@Everiso that asshole kept me trapped in a locker for twenty minutes i was so close to developing claustrophobia
The ai is bullshit and pissed me off many times before I beat it. It learned that I was damn good at the game so to make it harder it made it impossible. Wanted so much flamethrower because i literally couldn’t progress without it all the time.
yea the alien learns your patterns
That's why whenever I played, I would constantly mix up how I play to confuse the AI. It worked half the time... for the Alien at least.
In GTA Online when you are delivering a car and an NPC decides that it has to make a uturn across all three lanes of the highway and knocks you into a lake
The Riptide Raptor I honestly think they did, probably cost them to do it too
Lol. I remember doing a Pacific Standard heist months ago and we decided to use the bikes and go on the highway (a glitch we were doing didn't work). A van literally drove across all lanes just to run me over and kill me. I just went to bed after that.
Legend Mr Sinful haha I meant in the vehicle garage missions but I get the feel
nadnerB It's exactly the same for that too. AI just lose all control over their body and just straight up drives like idiots.
Legend Mr Sinful damn seizures am I right?

How about that moment in any racing game ever, where you're a few seconds from the finish of a very hard race and an ai truck just happens to turn in front of you, costing you the race and your sanity :/
reminds me of this fucked up drag race in NFS most wanted 2005
I hate the rubberbanding that occurs in 95% of racing games. It rarely does it to your benefit (ie if you're in last place, the leader goes slowly). But if you're in the lead with a record breaking time, the second place car is right on your tail.
Ali sensei "Oh, I made a mistake. Better restart."
Bruh...I've SLAUGHTERED best run times on games like NFS by double digit seconds and second place is RIGHT THERE...spot on mate
This was the most frustrating part of the Burnout series. Suddenly, not only was the AI rubber banding, it seemed like the traffic was all out specifically to murder you like you'd run over their dog this morning.
I think someone at EA tracks my happiness levels and makes me lose whenever it gets too high
Facts
They actually do want to do that and have a patent for algorithms that try to figure that out
Yep, that was my job for 3 months, but then I had to quit, I couldn't take your constant paranoid rants any more.
The developers said the xenomorph had two programs, one that knows where you are, and gives hints to the others, and one that searches for you using said hint.
Yea, i always chalked it up to ai cheating when it found me and shouldn’t have because really the game knows where you are all the time so it has to pretend it doesn’t.
Yeah. The part that knows where you are tries to give hints but it's the ignorant part that gets to drive and use environmental clues like noise makers. It's why the pacing and tension of that game are sublime.
Mine sweeper: 2 mathematically correct answers, but only one won't kill you.

WWE2K17 is the worst offender of any wrestling game. My opponent is flat on the mat, no health left, bleeding like a stuck pig. If wrestling wasn't fake I would be arrested for attempted murder. I feel a rare stab of pity for the pile of raw flesh that was my opponent and pin him. The Ref? He wanders aimlessly towards us and slowly lowers himself to the mat. At this point he says One! Then the ref forgets what he was on the mat for and stares into space. Remembering that there is still a match going on he says Two! Then he thinks to himself, did I leave the stove on? No I must have turned it off before I left. Do I need to buy milk on the way home? The grocery store will probably be closed by the time I leave here. What was I doing? Oh yes I was counting. Thr!! He kicked out at two and a half!
There's this WWE wrestler, Xavier Woods, who plays WWE2K17 on his TH-cam channel. At some point he faced Seth Rollins playing as himself, and after giving Rollins a bloody face and hitting his finisher 4 freaking times, Rollins was still kicking out like his life depended on it. Hilarious to watch.
Christopher Panossian That always happens to me. I usually beat the shit out of the ref for not making the 3 count.
Christopher Panossian I hope they fix that in WWE2K18. I hated doing career mode because I always needed two signatures and one finisher. It's madness!
Christopher Panossian The universe mode was good. That's all I got

FIFA. That final few mins when the AI suddenly goes from noob to 2010 Barcelona
Adishollywood And you can't select the defenders you want to.
Ryan Pinder or pass it to the only person in front of you
Or concede 2 fucking goals in the 80 somtint minute even though youve had 20+ shots and the other team havnt even got one
Ryan Pinder That's so fucking annoying. It happens so often to me. I swear that bs is on purpose, I literally spam tge button but it doesn't even change to the one player who could do something
FIFA isn't really much rigged, stamina and player stress takes hold and you forget that the AI has a scripted amount of getting things done. You're job is to prevent it, but millions of players get nervous and then blame the ai for screwing you over.
The AI is SUPPOSED to beat you idiots, just like a real life team. I understand what you guys feel, but alot of the times we blame the ai's instead of yourselfs. The best FIFA players in the world know how to control these things from happening, and if you mean how does ai, or other people score impossible goals? its because the game has an unrealistic ball speed which often is too fast of an animation for the goalkeepers to even begin a save animation (its not the reactions of the gk itself) also when it comes to crosses and header, for the longest time Goalkeepers didnt even have save animations for particular headers so thats why it goes in and people think it's rigged. They didnt even have defending wing animations for lobbed ball defending until 16 think. one of the reasons why wing running was OP in earlier titles.
You have no idea how happy I felt when I saw this comment
I've always found it odd in certain games where when enemies turn into allies, they always seem to be less powerful or more stupid. This also includes cutscene interactions.
10 minutes ago when you were trying to kill me you could take a shot to the face, now that were on the same team you die in 2 seconds.
That pull at the end of the Alien section made me jump out of my chair, even though I knew it was coming... and that's why games like that in my nope list.
It's a lesser known game, but how about IL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey?
If you play the campaign on simulator mode, the best fighter aircraft in the game that you've spent the whole game that you've been looking forward to the whole time are almost useless. The Mk XI Spitfire has an unreliable engine that disintegrate when any part of your plane gets hit and breaks completely for no reason if you take a randomly selected amount of time too long. The legendary P-51 Mustang has an engine that runs on stupidly low power the whole mission, a poorly balanced fuel load that makes it handle like an 18 wheeler with no tires except when it doesn't - at which point it instead flips upside down or goes into a spin as soon as you so much as breathe on the stick - and the engine drops its power at a random point of its own choosing to about a third of whatever nothing it gave you in the first place. Oh, and that's not even counting how the missions in the Mustang are at least partly ground attack and in the second one you're given only enough ammo to have like two shots left over if you hit every shot, which is to all intents and purposes impossible since you're not even guaranteed a hit if you fire so close you nearly ram the target, land the rockets *on* the target, and have to fly through the flames of the explosion to pull up: and of course when you pull up with surgical precision from your 10 to 20 degree dive it flips upside down and plows the fields below with your face just for giggles.
Oh, and did I mention the I-16 Type 24? It was a perfectly capable aircraft when it was built, if rather hard to fly as a very early monoplane, but what the hell does Birds of Prey think it's doing serving up one with the world's most fragile engine in the fifth mission to fight multiple squadrons of *not outdated* fighters and bombers while backed up by forty-odd other obsolete planes who love nothing more than to shoot through you, ram you, and waste fifteen minutes or so all chasing a single fighter so that they can finally hit and shoot it down at the exact moment you engage it for no discernable reason other than to keep you flying from point to point for an hour to waste your precious little fuel supply so that you lose power when the bombers arrive and crash when you try to glide the rickety twitchy rust bucket down onto whatever field you find only to have the landing gear collapse every damn time.

That's not a far fetched idea. In the GTA world you can track cellphone signals and some unspecified government object, with an app that any jo-schmo can download onto a smart phone. I don't see it being all that far fetched that the police have the trackify app and follow your cellphone signal, since you can never turn it off.
Every multiplayer game ever made in the history of ever has been specifically and maliciously designed to put me and very SPECIFICALLY ME on a team of cross eyed brain dead drooling infants who've had both their thumbs amputated and every sane and competent player on the opposing team. I have made LITERAL (not figurative) graphs and spreadsheets showing that I statistically suffer more "bad luck" than my opponents so don't try to tell me I'm "paranoid" or "a sore loser" or "George seriously it's just a game put the hand grenade down!"

I feel this. Every time I'm on a team trying to play an objective, my team mates always assume it's just a deathmatch game and truck right off defending or advancing.
It's the most annoying thing ever, being the only one on your team to get any capture or defense points in CTF games.

TheLastWiller But I won the second term elections! The Shadow Moses Incident took place on February 28th 2005, 1 month after the inauguration of the 2004 winner meaning that I had to have won it! But then I was forced to leave office because Lalilulelo didn't take kindly to my whole "Attempted coup" deal which only failed because SOMEONE (not naming names, but it rhymes with "Blocelot") decided to betray me for absolutely no reason! I knew I never should have trusted him... three times.

Oh, the Alien in Alien: Isolation absolutely cheats, at least on the hardest difficulty. I once counted, in exasperation, how many times it came back looking for me. In that large medical/operation area I was hiding in a room, of course, and I heard the alien leave. So I slowly sneak out and the alien comes back into the area, so I hide back in the room. A minute later the alien walks by, then comes back into the room. After looking around it leaves through a vent again. So I'd sneak out and once out of the room it came running back! It did this NINE TIMES IN A ROW! I'd swear It felt like I was hiding in that room for a full hour before the ridiculous game let me finally leave that room and continue on.
Casyle it can smell you.if you stay too kong in one area it get suspicious
I saw in other comments about the same game that as the game progresses, the alien begins to learn how you act so it can counteract more accurately. That's probably why the alien kept doing that. It was learning your actions.
Alien isolation the only game that has stressed me lut
It's been a while but if I remember right, it's more aggressive when you get to the medical area. It calmed down again once I completed an objective there. Which might have been a gamey mechanic to make it seem as though the alien calms down after a while.
If you read the messages in the computers at the security office, it tells you about some incident that may have contributed to the alien's sour mood.
There is some randomness regarding the experience you have. My friend had no problem with some of the areas that troubled me. And I made quick work of some of the places he had a terrible time with.
Yea the police in gta5 infuriate me. Not only are they really hard to get away from unless you happen to be near a tunnel or go far off-road before being spotted prior to 3 stars, but their cars also seem to have rocket engines when chasing you and are able to ram your increasingly fast super cars with their decidedly not even sports car patrol vehicles at a speed roughly double your own. That is what gets me extremely angry at the game. I can be going around 200 mph in a Lamborghini lookalike, and the can still ram me in their Crown Victoria lookalikes. The f gta? Seriously, the f.
It's worse when they bring out the chopper.
Top speed Is about 120 in game on the vic. Top speed of the fastest cars are around 130 140. So it makes sense they can keep up.
Yet they are super easy for me to dodge no matter the wanted level, double easy near Franklin's old house
A classic of course was the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy text game, which had two tools of which you could only carry one to a specific location - and would require you to have whichever one you hadn't carried.

Actually surprised pokemon isn't here. I swear ai has a vastly greater chance of inflicting status, hit through stuff like confusion and paralysis. Basically RNG in their favor.
Michael Berresford if Pokemon was on here it would be for not being able to be defeated by ohko moves. I discovered this was in leaf green( against blue with a kingler with goitine and in heart gold I metronomed a fissure against Whitney's clefairy in heart gold too . Then they metronomed a shear cold and it worked on me.
Dunno about the gameboy games, but definately the AI cheats (A LOT) on the original pokemon stadiums (1 and 2) for the N64.
Zorua Fox ohko moves work like this: if the pokemon being targeted is a higher level, then the ohko move will never hit (that's for all games) and if the targeted pokemon is lower leveled, then the ohko move gains 1% of accuracy for each level. If the pokemon are the same level, then it's always a 30% chance.
IceMaster IceLegend but it said it failed not it missed. Also I was higher level.
Michael Berresford they actually don't have increased chances, it's basically a dice roll or coin flip everytime. Human nature makes people always want it happen but when it doesn't, it annoys them. Kinda like gambling. But when it comes to Pokemon, it's all in the values of number rolls: from damage, buffs/debuffs, and even getting wurmple to evolve into silcoon or cascoon (don't get me started)

NBA Jam for me. CPU would routinely sink full court shots for wins which led me to coin the phrase "computer shit".
mattsterpiecevision does full court mean from one basket to the other? Because in that case yeah, that's computer shit.

The reason why the alien gets harder is because it has an adaptive ai so it adapts to your play style
Austin Stewart yea I was starting to figure out the aliens moves in the game so I started avoiding doing dum shit. Then I started realizing that the alien was starting to catch on to my moves and by the time I knew I got fucked over few times and had to come up with something different to finish the game.
Huh that’s interesting. Think that was that shooting one can’t remember, but well, when it comes to games where I have to aim. I can’t aim properly, so I came up with the smarter idea of shooting in the opposite direction and it works, that game probably would be hell for me.
Actually it doesn't. There are two AI programs: a director which always knows where you are and gives general hints, and the xenomorph who follows the hints according to a skill tree which gradually unlocks.
Comrade Jane understands the frustration of Tetris lol!!
Wait, Jane is *Misery*? Are we sure the reason why Andy and Mike haven't escaped from her murderous clutches ISN'T due to being hobbled by a giant sledgehammer? Has anyone seen their feet lately? Oh god.

I preferred to think of her as Ruby Gloom's Misery. I just hope everyone else at OutsideBox gives her lots of room so they're not in danger from the lightning strikes concentrated on her position.
how about on skyrim and its archery, Ive lost count of the amount of times I've shot an arrow where someone is/going to be only to have them stop for no reason halfway through their patrol, turn on a coin and go the other way or randomly burst into a sprint/speed slide out of the way of the arrow while you're in sneak mode and there should have been no reason the npc acted like that. Hell I even had one moment where a bandit was standing next to a chest and as soon as I let loose on the arrow she turned around and used the chest making herself duck and the arrow went over her head. -_- Its not just me either Ive seen this stuff happen to ESO when he does his skyrim videos.
i have that happen all the time! i usually go for a sneak archer and sometimes the npcs will literally slide sideways in order to evade my arrow. keep in mind IM LITERALLY SNEAKING
That happened to me a lot in The Last of Us, when im trying to clear a room with the bow and I'm trying to headshot everyone for a clean kill. Clickers were the worst. Call me a perfectionist but I restart at last check point everytime those fuckers suddenly decide to move out of the way. It's like they had spider sense. It's like they knew I was aiming for their head. Fucking annoying.
The NPC's actively dodge arrows they don't know are coming -_-, it's really irritating...
Castillo Montes literally? Oooorrrr
Anthony Bruno literally. It's so annoying. I got a mod that disables their sixth sense though, and now that doesn't happen to me anymore. so now if I miss, it's because I suck, not so much the A.I.

Wyatt Roberson It's even worse on a pirated copy of Fire Red at least. Maybe it's just me but a friend handed down his GBA and LeafGreen and FireRed recently. The FireRed is pirated based on the cartridge label and the whole "The save file is ok" message upon selecting 'Continue' that I've never seen in a legit copy. I swear to God there is an obvious bias in favor of the AI throughout the whole game what with how regularly the AI (Wild and Trainer battles) land critical hits. At first I thought the RNG was just uncommonly unlucky but then I began to see a pattern and I'm assuming it's an anti-piracy measure to troll people courtesy of GameFreak.
This particular bit's truth is multiplied by 15 when you are doing a nuzlock almost as though it magically knows you're doing a nuzlock.

Midnight Club Los Angeles. You can be half a lap ahead for the whole damn race, then an Escalade appears out of nowhere as you drift the last corner, with no way to steer around it as you slide sideways at 150mph, which allows every other racer to pass you within sight of the finish line. especially prominent in pink slip races, just to make sure you lose all of your cars trying to get the other guys one. this game is also severely guilty of the "rubber banding" you spoke of. there is no way a Mitsubishi should be able to beat a Lamborghini consistently.
Max Power I raced the hard difficulty constantly mostly for the dub edition cars and if I was doing well, the ai had no chance of catching up
John Crapper Midnight club logic
How about NFS, from Underground and after
When you race against "boss" cars, they are way too fast for the real car you unlock
i raced against caleb's car on hard. Beat him on the first try, He was like 1000 feet away. Only cheat I used was getting the RX 8 as my starter car. That was it, no money.
Those races with Kurt, damn I hate them.
I Hate rubber banding on NFS games. You can see them sometimes after a AI wrecks or just falls way behind, you will see their icon travel thru the map without using the roads.

Funny thing about Alien: Isolation: The alien has TWO AIs. One is constantly aware of where you are and gives the other one hints on how to find you.
Isn't there a third giving it false hints like when it goes to search another part of the map for you
Alien has preset goals third AI reminds it of occasionally, being “false hints”. These pings happen faster if the drama goes too high
Just Cause 3, the AI's tendency to overreact if you dare to go just one milimeter too close to a base. BOOM! Instant helicopter missile strike.
to be fair you do have a grappling hook, parachute, and multiple weapons so...
Zachery Harvey Or the snipers that never seem to miss they'll swat you as if you were a fly
As with GTA V, it's the same deal with the 5'o if you decide to.. say, hide in an alley. Cops decide to stop their car a few meters away and DECIDE TO JUST SEARCH THAT ONE ALLEYWAY or maybe even climb that one ladder to the roof that you're on.
Half Life 2 Episode 1. This is a bit of a game-breaker but do-able. When you arrive at the train station for the final fight, use the gravity gun to manually move RPG rounds (the loose ones lying around the ammo crate outside) to the passenger escape area. Take as many as you want over, but make sure you have enough to bring down a strider (5, so 3 in your inventory plus a couple of spares). Go back, kick off the ending battle, take down the Combine forces, escort the citizens out, trigger the last sequence of dialog with Alyx.
The Strider that chases you through the shipping container area will show up. Use your carried RPG rounds to take it out before it can fuck up the gate and force you to cross over the crates and duel it along the way. Yay! You won and can just walk out without that tedious firefight on the gantries, dealing with mines, the ever-present Strider, and so on, right?
*WRONG!*
If you take down the Strider before it traps you into said tedious fire-fight...the computer spawns another. Oh no, mister, you're _going_ to do this fight _our_ way! - Valve Software (probably). Just for shits and giggles I turned on cheats, god-mode, and gave myself another pile of RPG rounds and it spawned a _third_ Strider.
You have never seen real boobies,

Fun note: In the Mario Kart Wii game (for the original wii), you can avoid the blue shell. I've done it twice. If you have a mushroom boost, you can hit it just as the shell is about to dive and escape the blast radius. Or if you have a bomb-omb, you can throw it in front of you and the shell can follow it instead. But I think those might be bugs. The best way to avoid the blue shell is to go into a cannon.
i once downloaded mario party onto an emulator to see if the dice rolls were actually random. turns out theyre all decided at the beginning of the match.
Fraydizs 😂
I think this only happens in the first mario party
HicksZ34 If you save scum in xcom, its different somehow.
Kevlar Moneyclips A computer can't actually randomly generate a number the way a person does. A simple RNG system has a long list of numbers the developers created that it runs through as number rolls are required. Thus, a person could theoretically play through such a system, memorize the rolls, and then go back and know ahead of time what the rolls will be if its position on the list is saved with all the other data. That's only for a really basic system though, and I'm sure modern developers have a more sophisticated process that gives you different results every playthrough.
Fraydizs Decided in advance, but not set forever- so they are random, just not if you continually retry on the same savestate
Guys, you've missed the Grand Emperor of cheating games: Civilization. On harder difficulties, any version of Civ would drive Ghandi to using nukes.... Oh, I get it now.
not really cheating, originally just a bug (a problem of having an aggressivity parameter so low from the start that the value often went under zero and circled back to the max aggro (computers logic) when any player's decision lowered ennemy aggressivity) and players found it so funny that the developers kept it for subsequent games.
Jonathan Holmberg the reason for that is Civ AI can't predict human behavior..Yet, so the AI cheats to have an advantage. That's why the Germans always have nukes to threaten me with when I fought them a half hour ago when all they had was swords and spears
Gandhi was just a bug. His aggro was so low that if he picked some religious traits the parameter would go below zero and that was interpreted as a 14 (in a zero to 12 scale. So he could nuke you before you could even build one nuke)
I just played tetris and now have a lust for communism.
You're starting to see the light, comrade
that guy *cheeki breeki intensifies*
Welcome comrade

that guy Sorry to tell you this, but Communism is a myth. Humans are greedy, so a society where everyone is truly equal cannot exist. Anything else is not actually communism. Thus, there is not, has never been, and will never be a true communist society. There are only pretenders.
I still remember the complete pride I felt when I first completed level 9 high 5 in Tetris, seeing that rocket go up was just a great feeling! 😅
The alien one isn't cheating. It actually learns how you hide n run n play. It's a learning alien, that's what makes the game much harder the better you play.
So in other words give SovietWomble the first half and the second is a cakewalk.
I don’t know Rick, seems like cheating too me.

You think GTAV is bad, remember GTA San Andreas? Get the highest wanted level and say goodbye cop cars, hello infinite tanks, and unlike GTAV in San Andreas you cant hide until they go away. I've literally used a flying car to get from San Feirro to Los Santos and as soon as I landed on the ground, infinite tanks.
YPP luckily you used a flying car but if you try to fly in a legit flying vehicle, like a helicopter or a plane, and you got 6 star wanted level they send jets after you.
On the plus side if you get in a jet before getting that wanted level the ensuing dogfight is quite fun. I loved doing that. I had one time where I was in active combat with them for over an hour. It’s like Ace Combat gta edition, lol.
and also the fucking military is after you at the highest level

From what I've heard, there are two AI brains in control of the Alien. One is the forebrain that patrols and hunts you, and the other one knows exactly where you are at all times, and gives small hints to the forebrain. The farther in the game you are, or the better you are at avoiding it, the more the forebrain pays attention to the hints, hence the better it gets at hunting you
"the more the forebrain pays attention to the hints"
"Somewhere East of you..." "Shut up Jerry, I know where I'm going, I don't need your help."

I forget which wwe game it was (maybe 2007) where you could spam the reversal button and almost always reverse the ability unless you didn't know which type of move they where going for. I also prefer the button mash to avoid a 3 count rather than the stupid minigame prompt to get the line in the colored spot. There should be an option to return some key features to the older format
Invoi Able There is. You can turn off the reversal counter in the settings.
Yeah every game up until 2009 or 2010 in the smackdown series had that reversal thing.
2006. R2 for one, L2 for the other xD
Invoi Able - In Smackdown SYM, you can just spam the square button to reverse everything since that was the reversal button.
Smackdown Just Bring It, you could spam X and Square and literally block EVERYTHING, no wonder I hate JBI.
What about the original battlefront 2? Ai will only aim at you and completly ignore every other stormtrooper that's storming the base of those filthy rebels on hoth with you.
So basically every shooter game ever
Yeah, but you're also a far better shot than the idiot AI if you're any good at console shooters at all, which means your K/D will be like a dozen to one.
Cyreex Did you forget the fact that the AIs can't even aim down on the fucking Jawas and Master Yoda? It pissed me off seeing that they can't aim down at small beings...
Actually, I loved that. It made the Endor: Hunt mission nearly impossible, since the Ewoks won like 100% of the time. Winning it was just about the hardest thing to do in that damn game.
(Also, a crouching Yoda could hide under the swamp in Dagobah, becoming completely invisible. My brother fell for it so much, it was wonderful.)
Stevethebarbarian I figured out how to win the endor hunting mission with the empire, order as many troops to follow you as you can (you don't really need them for fighting it's just that the more troops are with you the less likely they are to get themselves killed) then fire away at the ewoks also plant a turrant sense the direction of the fire will often help you find ewoks which is hard sense they are tiny and their weapons are completely silent
I think any game with RNG is bad, but Pokemon always seems to give you a critical hit when you desperately want to catch that rare Pokemon! I guess that's why I should have bothered with False Swipe...
J Mell Made a Gallade with mean look and False Swipe years ago.
RNG is absolutely horrible. Have you ever played Risk on pc?
Once you have Surf and Fly, that shouldn't be a problem as the only prototype that took scientists decades to perfect can easily be duplicated by a ten year old boy using a glitch in the matrix.
The only game I have little issue with RNG is earth defence force 4.1 the shadow of new despair, as it gives you a selection of weapons from any weapon crates you pick up, mostly weapons you already have,
But that said its a fixed selection but randomly put picks the weapons on level and difficulty played

I think I now understand why winning two rounds in a row after losing the first round is called an “M. Bison.”
Which game was that used aside from Street Fighter?
I would think "M. Bison" has been mainly used for fighting games, such as Mortal Kombat 11, Street Fighter V, Tekken 7, etc. I also would think it can be used for other types of games that has to do with winning rounds for "Best of Three" matches.

X-Com! When you move a soldier right next to the last remaning alien to finish it of with a clear open 95 % shot... and it misses... or the enemy dodges so you do to little damage to kill it... or the move happens to reveal yet another enemy squad that was lurking at the edge of the map. And then that soldier gets butchered and your remaning soldiers panic.
Reminds me of a GIF I saw of a dude in X-COM running up to an alien, at POINT-BLANK RANGE, with a 97% shot... and the guy shoots a bush that's like 2 feet away from the alien. >< WT actual F, game.
This is even worse if said soldier is using a SHOTGUN. Which is literally the best weapon to use in close quarters combat. And really should not miss at point blank range.
Zero8000 Seems worse than a stormtrooper
You guys forgot FarCry 2. It had a weapon jam/malfunction system to mimic supposed real gun failures. Except-when you're about to shoot at an enemy-your gun just mysteriously jams or blows up. Oh yeah, your gun would in fact blow up and you don't have it anymore. So you purchase a new one, let's say a brand new pump action shotgun. Fire off 5 or 6 rounds to make sure it works. Then go about your game. You come across some enemy, aim and squeeze the trigger-'click'. Jammed. Brand new from the weapon shop, and just happens to jam when you face an enemy. Very nice. Great video by the way guys
Once you buy a gun you can go take as many as you want for free though (also it's been a while so I don't remember but I think only explosive weapons like the rpg blow up, shotguns and stuff only jam)
I didn't like the whole thing where you would kill everyone at a checkpoint, turn around to get something, and they were already back at the checkpoint. I also thought it was crazy how much the AI would intentionally smash a Jeep or whatnot into your vehicle and unload from the mounted gun into you. Like, head-on collision just to stop you.
+Cheyenne winter yeah, almost all guns/rpgs would either malfunction and eventually blow up in your hands. You're right, you can always pick up unlimited ones at the weapon shop. Point was the AI seemed to determine your guns NEEDS to jam, right when you're in a firefight. Rpgs couldn't jam, but the grenade would flip out of the tube and plop to the ground...spin around...and then blow up. Real nice ubisoft
I think I remember now actually, the guns sorta shatter after a while don't they? I usually got sick of unjamming weapons and got a new one before it gets that far
Using the same "Hold button while selecting character" secret that lets you play Shin Akuma when used on normal Akuma, you can actually play as Super M-Bison by using it on M Bison who locked into X-ISM and most definitely able to use the Super Psycho-Crusher.
Company of Heroes: Fogs of war doesnt apply to A.I. at key moments. The map was divided by a river with a destroyed bridge and theres zero options available to the AI to see the far reaches of my side, yet the AI knows exactly where my elite units are hidden to randomly fire the Calliope rockets at. I initially accepted this as a good guess and move them to another part of the map. A few minutes later, it fires its next barrage into a totally different area, hitting my relocated hidden units again. This happened multiple times proving the fogs of war are not applicable to the AI.
And if you play on the highest difficulty, the AI produce units from nowhere, for no resosurces, doubles the outcome of the production AND can build units from buildings that can't build units (tried with panzerwaffe AI)
I've never played an RTS game where FoW applied to AI.

call of duty on veteran mode. Mainly world at war. The ai get alot more grenade prone and there's literally times where there's 5 grenades that land right infront of you and all you can do is accept death
Zachery Harvey Don't even get me started on that game with that grenade bullshit. Clear one section out, end up running all the way back to the last.
That's why the newer Tetris games use a bucket randomizer. It throws each piece into a bag, and pulls them out one at a time until you hit one of each before shuffling them up again.
Also I've heard the Alien has two AIs, one that controls movement but doesn't know where you are, and one that knows where you are and feeds the first one hints if it's stumped.
Okay, can I just say that I *HATE* the Mario Kart Blue Shell! It serves no actual purpose other than to screw up the guy in 1st. I've never seen anyone get it in a position where it could actually help the person who throws it, making it a completely useless item to get, and on top of that, it screws up the guy in 1st and likely the one in 2nd as well. It is the game almost literally saying "screw you" to the person in 1st. It seems like Nintendo kind of figured this out when they made the horn, the one item that can defend against it other than a perfectly timed mushroom, but that's hardly enough. If you ask me, it should just be removed from the game entirely.
@@anAlarmingAlarm Sometimes when I'm targeted by the blue shell, I slow down so it can hit the guy in second place too.

Or when the so called 1% crit from the AI, happens 2 or 3 times in the same map, or in the tutorial map.
John Rodriguez The 90 to 10 you're looking for is when it says 50/50.
What about XCOM Enemy Unknown? There you are, one day way from a major project completion when most of your best soldiers are in the infirmary and suddenly 3 UFO spawn and completely wreck your stuff
Or the soldiers that can somehow miss a berserker at close range with a shotgun.
how about missing a 100% critical/hit chance?
Playing Rainbow 6 Vegas on coop my buddy and I found that the AI always knew where at least one of us were. For example I could actually watch an ai aim his weapon and follow my buddies movements even when he was behind a wall. Even if the AI was behind a wall they literally knew exactly where he was.
ufc undisputed 2010 was messed up in the career mode. If you enter the championship fight with a really good record (i was 7-1, 7 KOs), the champion just rushes to you, takes you down, and gets you in a submission. Submissions from the computer are virtually inescapable and this was all on the easiest mode
deiondre0 Thank the higher powers someone else knows this pain. I was 1 win away from the "UFC record" in game. And I got walked up on during my next match, and subbed in seconds. I thought I was alone on this madness.
deiondre0 It happened to me in the WWE games when going against a champion.HE/SHE ALWAYS DOES THE RUNNING GRAB!!!
EHHHHH
i can definitely remeber 09 and 10 being the worst when it came to streaks and AI becoming inhuman flash KO's and inescapable subs
i once knocked a guy out in one hit... Then had to pass the controller. *Damn loser cant take a Hit stay out the ring*
Lol Tetris is out to get you, I knew those four block pieces were menacing looking! Just look at them!
I read that the xenomorph AI has 2 "brains", one that always knows where you are and gives clues for the other to find you.
Three. There's Three AIs.
The "Body" controls the Xenomorph. It hunts you down, and learns the weapons you use. For example, the flamethrower becomes less effective the more you use it, and instead of chasing thrown items it starts looking for where it was thrown from later on.
The "True Brain" Sees everything including you, and gives the Xenomorph hints every 20 second early on, 10 seconds about halfway in, and 5 seconds in the late game. (you can see when a hint is given when it suddenly changes directions) It also gives hints every time you run or make noise. The one rule is that the True Brain can and will not give the Xenomorph your exact location, but rather gives more specific hints as the game goes on.
The "False Brain" is what makes the game "fair" and playable. If the False Brain didn't exist the Xenomorph would act like a heat-seeking missile to your location. What it does is appear in the late game to randomly give fake hints to the Xenomorph. You can see this in effect when the Xenomorph is coming towards you an suddenly goes the opposite direction and into a vent towards the wrong side of the map.
JakeSnake07 you stole a few bits of that comment from another comment. The false brain part with the alien going through the vents and also the heat seeking missile part. The true brain part where they make it more detailed information to find you. Also when you said "you can see when a hint is given when the alien suddenly changes directions." It's fine to explain what you read, but don't just copy a section or sections of that thing you read word for word.
Ben Spurrier the Xeno does learn and remember the more you hide in the same places to often and can find you easier if you hide there more and more, like in lockers or under desks
+ refunded refund I did see that guy's comment, yes, however none of the information there was anything new to people such as myself who kept track of any Alien Isolation news.
The only part that I did "steal" was using the term "Heat-Seeking Missile" to describe the Xenomorph finding the player quickly, as I found that to be a far better description than just saying "If the False Brain didn't exist the Xenomorph would immediately track down your location."
ok mate
Pokemon Sun and Moon's Battle Tree is a nightmare. Computer players in Pokemon usually get better chances at random status effects/buff/critical hits, but the Battle Tree takes it up another level by specifically picking any and every Pokemon that can perfectly counter your team while getting a buff to those better status effect chances. And it doesn't stop there because every iteration of the game since Emerald has had some battle facility with the same cheating way, getting worse along the way.
Howza bout that "Fatal Four Way" where the game LITERALLY TELLS YOU to wait while they study your team and make one of the cpu's have the exact kryptonite.
vernanonix yeah bro in Pokemon Emerald I went to the battle Pike or pyramid or something and I beat everybody than I get to the frontier boss whatever they were called back then and she trashes me i was so confused but I basically lost because of status effects you ever notice how you get confused and you can only land like 1 and 5 moves but your opponent gets confused paralyzed or anything like that and moves like nothing ever happened in fact they move better than before sometime tbh
The Kid Heem emerald frontier can be predicted and isn't too difficult if you have half decent IVs and can be arsed to EV train your pokes, that said, back then there was no simple way of checking IVs or EV training, making the competitive scene niche as getting good pokemon stats was an utter ball ache.
Andrew Ormrod yeah I eventually learned the works and beat them all I'm good at EV training but IV training idk how to do that.
The Kid Heem IV "training" is only possible in sun and moon with the introduction of hyper training, which can only be done to a pokemon at level 100. In previous games IVs cannot be manipulated and are determined the moment you meet a wild pokemon. In all games post gen 2, Perfect IVs can only be obtained through breeding as hyper training is registered as a power up and doesn't actually increase any IVs and therefore does not affect breeding.
Super nerdy British dude saying "snitches get stitches" is the high-lite of my day
This is why I love Jrpgs. You grind it out and lvl up and the bosses must die
XCOM 2
*Just the game itself..*
Everything in the XCOM series. If you think two is nasty, take a look back at some of the originals Terror from the Deep is considered, I think the hardest, or certainly way up there on the hardest XCOM games ever released.
Terror mission.
Land at night.
It's Chryssalids.
There's an alien ready to toss a grenade into your Skyranger on turn 1.
XCOM EU/EW/2: "99% chance to hit? Yeah, I'll take it."
UFO Defence/Terror from the Deep: "Something will hit eventually."
95% chance to land shot
*MISS*
Running away with my last living party member from a blacksite. Jumps down to get away, surrounded by god damn everything.
XCOM
Just the series itself
In Alien Isolation there are two ai's. One is the "director" and the other controls the alien. The director gives hints to the alien ai throughout the game. In the beginning, the director only helps the alien a little, and will have it try to follow you more than predict where you're going. Later on, the director will give more accurate hints and will also help the alien cut you off. The director will try to get the alien to outsmart you, by seeing how you evaded the alien before that, making the alien more likely to see through plans you have used before.
I like that mechanic actually. The Alien should learn, and then (spoilers for those who have not played it even after a couple years) when you get to the hive and realise the alien you booted out into space was the only one it is only right the other Aliens actually have a better understanding since you're in their home, there's more than one and they're the nest guardians.
I knew it learned from your past movments but i didn't realise it was 2 AIs working together, that's pretty smart.
No XCOM where your soldiers miss all shots under 80% and the AI kills your medic always at first with some ridiculous crits?
The Tetris part hit a chord with me because I’ve played an obscene amount of Splatoon 3 Tableturf, and it sucks when I have the perfect spot to play a specific card and get a ton of special points, and either a. The card never comes, b. The spot is filled up when you do get that card, or c. When you play the card, you get none of those special points because there’s still one empty space bordering the special tiles.
"Still itchy, still tasty" omfg i literally lol'ed at that one and woke up my roommate in the next room. Also, got a good laugh from the "Snitches get stitches" comment, since i often hear my pre-teen children say exactly that, in much the same way lol. Oh and I definitely agree with the games listed too.
The freaking desire sensor in the Monster Hunter series, I swear I had to hunt Hyper Silver Rathalos 5 times for a Hyper S. Rath Scale, normally 70-some % drop rate
This is the only problem you have? Nuffin else?
Yes
Every multiplayer FPS ever will load me into a game 99% complete on the losing team just to give me an instant loss
That's probably more an issue regarding the guys who are even less willing to take an L and leave before the end of the game. Though a good game would at least know who to punish.
Except when you start a game late and lose I'm never counts as a loss....says it Everytime 🙄
Say this one right out BLITZBALL. I Swear every time an enemy team mate would Attack or Pass or Shoot they always always ALWAYS got extra points or for some reason my 10 attack would always do 2 or miss where as their 5 attacks always crit. I just want the damn weird shaped trophy Goers Sheeeshhh
Kace KTV You do realise that you can cheese that tournament without 'hacks', right?
jecht shot is op
LOL hell yeah it is. Was my only hope getting one off when i get control of Tidus and one more before Wakka comes in then i try to score with him but usually just keep him and the ball far away from the goers
Kace KTV just replayed this part literally this week. I swear, I thought I was doing well. I haven't ever won before but I had a tie and literally last minute, I had a goal that should've took and then it didn't and they then scored on me with maybe 2 seconds left. Blitzball is the bane of my existence...
As in, I'd like Bane to blow up the stadium.
The best example in my experience of the game screwing you up is Megaman ZX there is an optional boss called 'Omega' and if you have life hacks he will literally do a move where he disables your hacks or simply ignore the coding(not really sure how it works) and damage you not regarding the hack plus the fight is hard as as hell in any dificulty.
With my experience playing fighting games, in arcade mode the bosses usually get more aggressive the more rounds that go on. It's really frustrating
