Dumb Hero Movements: Smarter Hero Update Failure (Pics inside)

[blackcaesar]

They are testing every update very, very carefully, for a long time. So the heroes work as intended. You need to know your heroes again (post is sticky). Don't complain, buy gems...
Future update 'boost your heroes AI for only 15 gems".

No he didnt - ♥♥♥♥♥

Heroes, same as other units, have a minor randomiser system when choosing a new target, allowing them to act more "realistic" when fighting instead of following the exact same pattern, like a robot, for every attack. The intention is not to make them fail or miss obvious targets, but to add more depth and variety to each battle. The result is that occasionally their movement seems less linear than it should be. This is very hard to notice, so good on you for catching it.

We'll make some minor adjustments in the future, but this is more or less the intended behavior.

Cheers,

Then how do you explain this video? It shows the AQ being random and failed every obvious targets...



A level 20 AQ only manages to take out an altar and one wall...

Running after the King....

Look when the opponent King start to kill the Golem, theQueen run to "Help" him
and managed to kill the king, jumping from one side to other side of the wall...
Thats why she try to open the zone where the king is (by the less pv wall around).

I know, She's WallBreaker's Queen !!

The queen didn't kill the king, she went over, looked at the king and turned to shoot a wall, You need to watch the video again mate...

Sorry, i edited my message..
Yup, just because the king jump over the wall, returning to his "base"..
At this moment, she manage to destroy the wall (to open the zone where the king was),
and the king came back, and she start to kill him.

Which confirms that the AQ's AI is random... The Barb King is on the other side of the base and she walks away from the closest targets a number of times in the video and end up only shooting one wall... Her favourite target is ANY not Barb Kings...

Well, i agree with you..
But it looks like she did what i said....

It arrived to me, She tried to help a Golem moving to nowhere and being attacked by the opponent King.
Before this moment, She was destroying the TH, easy, no body was shooting her...

You really lack attention to details... The TH was already destroyed before the AQ was deployed...

i was speaking about one of MY experience with the Queen AI.

The Heroes do need re-addressing... They shouldn't be focusing targets on the other side of bases and shooting past nearest targets. It's not the first time I've seen the AQ position herself in a spot to be targeted by maximum defences and then shoot an air defence which does her no harm...

If you add randomness to the AI then there is no skill involved, you might as well just deploy your troops in any random place and let the random AI takes its cause...
