AI in 5 Year Plan


Via Twitter:

Ok so the 5 year plan is to eventually add AI, but not at launch. #planetside2
Discuss - please keep discussion on this topic in one thread.

Also

We have LONG term plans to add AI in the form of a fourth faction, we'll see if that pans out, but it should be pretty cool. Auto-turrets are something we could do right now but we just aren't - we want defense to be player-active, not passive. Might change in the future if necessary.

Very interesting. Did they say what sort of AI they are discussing? I noticed they said something about an AI squad running with another live squad? Wonder if that's what they mean?

I think a Squad of AI soldiers for Station Cash would be hilarious. I mean it's a bad thing, but it would be funny as hell!

Selling AI puppets, real good! They do things for money, real resourceful! Sex slavery included, real experienced!

Yea. What would be the point though? If the player pops are massive, why would we need bots?

My prediction is that they don't expect pops to remain that high for a full 5 years. Once pops begin to fall, they are likely counter-acting that with the ability to have AI. They learned their lesson from PS1 that a dead server is a dead game. For better or for worse, AI solves that problem.

That's a pretty shitty way to deal with a population problem.

It's an especially depressing 5 year plan...What they expect the game to completely dead in 5 years and AI having to be a necessity to keep populations up?

Re: AI in 5 Year Plan


maybe after capturing continent u gained AI guards at bases, to reinforce what u just captured so u could move forward n capture more....just a guess...these AI would be limited amount of npcs...few to no respawns....i think it would be cool.

In short:

Plans tend to change from time to time. Don't overreact.

For one I'm sure its not the only aspect of solving it. It is likely a simple stop gap to ensure that platoons of 27 can still fill those last three spots. I agree, it's a bit sad, but I don't think its a completely illegitimate PART of the solution.
