AI sucks

I'm very disappointed with UT.
First the game is barely playable (from a multiplayer point) at 800x600 with defualt setting on a PIII600 256MB and V3@177. But what frustrate me is AI. Bots on a masterful (or upper of course...) level never behave like umans. They never make a real error, they always shoot at you in the right direction and in the fastest and deadlier manner, they never esitate a second. A good example is when they have the impact hammer you can't try to escape they will always follow your movement and then hit you. Another one is when you are waiting behind a corner as soon as they appear they shoot at you and you don't have a chance to hit a key. When they are behind a corner and you fire in that direction they always remain hidden but as soon as your realese your mouse button they reappear and shoot at you in the middle of your eyes. Even when they are hit they never loose the precision to shoot at you. It's so clear that they are controlled by the computer that I think that AI implementation is ridicolous. If you add that we are limited by fps with our hardware and bots don't of course, it's just another point of frustration. So I use UT only in multiplayer but for me is like having Unreal with additional maps nothing else. I hope Epic will look again at AI implementation even if I haven't a lot of hope, my experience with Unreal patches are enought...

ty_Fortune,
I can win up to Galleon on a deathM Masterful level, I don't want to win with a lower setting. What I can't understand is Why AI implementation is so poor? It seems that Epic don't understand that bots must behave like human not like computer controlled like now. That's why I think isn't a great game.

You're right Donkya Bwoy.
It seems like I'm in turbo mode. I've started a practice session in Hardcore on the same map and bots are easier to kill now. But how can I turn my game back to hardcore and where I can see if I'm in turbo mode.

I don't care if UT AI is the best around, and I won't buy Q3 if it's worst, I can continue playing and have much more fun with the few demo maps on the net. If it can't recreate an internet experience I'm not satisfied. Who can tell me that UT is like an internet fragging game? Yes, UT masterful bots miss shots but only because they try to anticipate your movement, try to remain immobile and you'll see that they don't shoot at you always directly, they miss you often. And try to be close a bot with an impact hammer and tell me how U escape. Bots never run out of ammo because they always fire in a logical way and never panic. They never miss an object or a player if it's in line of sight. Since Quake I've been on the net to frag someone and I've found a lot of better players than me but never I feel frustrated instead I was able to learn and always get a chance to kill the best opponent. Why bots never stop to camper in DM? How can they make a combo attack in such perfect way? Why they never look around? How they can understand in such a perfect and fast way where are you shooting from? If AI is the best around I think that it's not good enought to substitute an internet game. I can appreciate the efforts of the programmers but we are far away from human-like AI. The fun to play against a human is much much more fun.

THX hal for the advice.
I dunno how to modify bots behavior can U tell me where I can get useful info about that?
