Which command let the bots attack the enemy core?

[fireball]

(I am playing the career modus.)

If the enemy prime is under our command, I prefer to attack the core myself - thats much more efficient.

But sometimes I have the core , so I stay close by the enemy prime (like I would do it with human buddys), hoping my bots would attack the enemy core ...... still hopeing

So, what would be the command with the fairest chance that they do so?

- attack (I tried many times)
- freelance
- or press "esc" then choose the map tab, and there is written "change the orders". One of this orders is called "special Oops".

Somebody here who KNOWS?


==> If not, I let drop this ****ing Orb in future and attack the enemy core myself

Attack, except bots are useless and probably die before thry get there.. Changing the orders doesn't affect bots it affects you. It determines where you spawn and what the announcer tells you.

I'm pretty sure it's: V-1-1-1

[cowlike]

btw when you do V-1-1-1 online do others hear anything ?

[fireball]

Well, okay, so the normal attack command should do it ... should ;-)

@ crazy *******: could you specify that a bit more detailed, how my orders does affect ME and my place of RESPAWNING? Please :-)


there is another thing, also with giving commands: when you go to the map, there's written "change commands".

What is this command: "SPECIAL OPS" ???
What is the bot supposed to do ???



(... sometimes my bots get stuck all togehter in this **** leviathan, and dont obey any commands --- thats why I play with the mutator "friendly fire" ---- I just blow them up to get them back in my team :-)

Im still looking for the "slap some sense into the other bots" order lol

The role you set affects the announcements by the er... announcer

For example, if you choose "Attack"... you'll get messages like "Attack the node"

if you choose "Defend"... you'll get messages like "Defend the prime node"

if you choose "Orb carrier(?)".. you'll get messages like "Pickup the orb"

if you choose "Spec Ops"... you get messages like "Grab the redeemer", "Get in the nightshade", "get the power armour"

For me, spec ops is clearly the best one to have since it reminds you of item spawns. You can choose your own nodes to attack.

I'm sure there will be a list somewhere which shows exactly which events are notified to you.. but this gives you an idea.

On the bot front... I always found that asking 2 bots to defend, 1 to freelance and then you attack is the best.

This is true, but there's one additional aspect. Choosing "orb" orders makes you spawn where the orb is. Good to know when starting Torlan, for example.

Wow, that was useful. And its right, after I set it to "special ops" the anouncer always said to me "get the redeemer" ... I was thinking if a kind of cheat was unwillingly activated ... :-) Now I know.

So this "chang commands/order" on the map affects me, while the button "v" affects - more or less, - the bots, right?

Thaky you :-)

Oh, that is also very useful. Depending on the map maybe even better than the specials announcment. Hey Guys, I tell you, I hate it when I want to get the orb, and a stupid as hell bot got it before me, and (in Serenety) instead of attacking the enemy prime with it while they are attacking our prime, he walks to the Leviathan .... to do what? ... even when the enemy already has the leviathan .... and so our prime get overruned


Well, still one thing is left, my first question:
When I attack the enemy core, mostly I am alone there. In serenety when the enemy core is vunerable, and after I was giving the order "attack", still most of them are going to this **** Leviathan ....... *head bang on a wall*

But I guess, we cant change that. My opinion is, that this bot command stuff is just not enough developped want to say differentiating. What is your opinions guys, are you very content the way your bots are executing your orders?

[fireball]

@ demoniac: I see you are in the "armaggedon clan". What is this thing with the clans. is your clan playing two three times per week together, stuff like this? And is that open for everybody, or do you have criterias? Is it a small group, or huge, where are you guy living? - I see you have a big internet site, but that would take me a year to read that all.

Just would like to quickly inform myself a litte bit. I'm becoming a little bit bored always playing with this stubborn bots.... ;-)
