True for all the other "bots" But if you use Price as the point man (unless he tells you otherwise) and use Gaz as your backup, they work really well.Marinejuana wrote:
thats funny, i thought the friendly AI was terrible and that they mostly blocked doors and important positions behind cover. i played the whole game essentially running away from them.
My first time through I kept getting stuck behind them in doors and halls..
Second time through, I played as if I was truly a member in their squad, and it worked great.
It was really uncanny how well Gaz covered my azz in the most hellacious firefights
One thing I learned is that Price and Gaz cannot die, you cant teamkill them either ( i don't think- my nades never seemed to hurt them).
Hell, I've seen price take two grenades, RPD rounds, and some asshole swinging a knife, while he does flinch and act hurt, he just wont die.
Maybe in the harder levels they can die, IDK.
So by letting Price take point, he absorbs a ton of the bullets that would otherwise be punching through you. I just started getting the idea to kneel behind either of them and lean to either side while shooting... they are the ultimate human shield.
