AI guns

why do the AI just use one or two guns to fire at me? they have super guns compared to their max gun loadouts, and they only use one, two is rare. i know juni has some good ones, and in a defender, you have 6 guns that fire.juni has a missile i think, but she still fires only using one gun !! why is that? it's just wrong! the AI has very much reduced firepower against the player.

starlancer was better. the black guard had like 6 guns and they all blaze at me.

presently, my world is upside down, so if u do not mind, u'll have to tok to my a$$

time to put an end the floating blue bastards[![!

There are so many flaws (or rather poor attempt to make the game easier) in the AI....not only guns. As many ppl have already mentioned, AI don't repair their ships using nanobots and shield battery, their shield recharge rate is too slow, and when you cruise away, they wouldn't switch on their cruise engine to pursue you....

The Blackguard was so cool..... I used to have my Pheonix charges up a Nova Cannon, and when a Blackguard decloaks....

Those were the days....

The game would end up being too difficult if the AI was better (and could use nanos and bats) Imagine fighting four decked out Sabres (or titans..or eagles.) when they can recharge their life and shields. Sure, that way killing one of them would be fun and challenging..but considering that they always come in groups of a least four, it would just be a nuisance.

Actually the AI's do use shield batteries and nano bots. I was attacking one and when I had finally got rid of his shield and did a sufficiant amount of damage he suddenly began to get his health back after his sheolds went back to full.

i'm serious.. they only use one or two.. the rheinlanders look confusing cuz of their stealthblades. they fire rapidly, and it looks like they are using all three of their guns. but do too little damage for that.

Those nomads use nanobots. In mission 13, i was almost killing one, when his health got a small boost, i shot him again, he got another boost, and so on. A lot of nomads have done this to me.
