Yes or no? If so explain why? I know the whole AI situation Beam NG is having right now. please no troll posts Trying to see how many people want the AI, because Beam Ng is going to bring it back sooner or later once they fix some things. The OLD AI BTW!
The new AI is not the best, it cant even turn without crashing in whats in front. Its progress but i would like it if they would have kept the old ai just so some peoples could mess around with it. I miss having a small derby. i thought of downloading the old version a few times. i just wish they would have kept the old ai for debugging or something. a lot of peoples cant seem to figure out how to enable the ai now. but its a wip.
This thread.. Why The reasons of why the old AI was removed was explained multiple times. The current AI is less dumb and it's able to drive on roads. It still doesn't recognize objects, but that will come at a certain point. Also, the older AI Modes are already getting ported over the new system.. Flee mode is already here and it works pretty well on East Coast USA.
http://wiki.beamng.com/Enabling_AI_Controlled_Vehicles If you want to try Flee, spawn another car. Set AI to FLEE, then TAB to the other car.
I get everything with the new ai being less dumb but all we really want is the 'derby' one. i cant remember the exact name for it but its the most fun. for me at least. all im saying is that the dev should have kept the 'derby' ai until the new one comes out.
i think that you mean by Derby the old "Attack player" mode. I agree that this one was really great fun and i would like to see it back just as it was. The fact that the cars don't avoid objects is perfect because you can make them do what you want. For example i liked placing a few cars very far from the player one on the Grid Map, then waiting for them to arrive very fast just behind a jump ramp and see them flying all around. Also this attack mode was very enjoyable to do crash test between two cars. Because one of the major feature for me in this game is the control of slow motion, then stopping the physics and turn around the scene with all the particles, it's awesome. Of course, all the new scenario mode are terrific, but i really think it doesn't cost a lot to keep a very dumb attack player mode, just for fun. I did a lot of screen captures of really awesome stunts scenes using this attack player mode.
Has anyone else noticed an influx in idiotic people who ask answered, or obvious questions withou trying to figure it ou on their own first. Ever since steam realeced it people are more like 7year olds... gotta say the facts imop
