AI Update

Unit AI is at the core of the GUNS UP! gameplay, and we’re committed to improving and polishing it to improve the player experience. This release features a new AI system that improves performance, stability, and gives us more tools to develop new and interesting behaviors. Our goal with this first pass is to make units more reliable and responsive, as well as opens doors for us to implement some cool stuff in the future.
  • Units are more responsive to the Decoy and Focus Fire specials
  • Units under the effect of Focus Fire will not shoot through indestructible objects, and instead will move towards the target to try to fire at it
  • Units are more responsive to enemy fire and will alert nearby teammates when taking damage
  • Units will spread out more and try to avoid standing on top of each other
  • Units will prefer to target other units rather than the transport truck
  • Units will reload empty clips before engaging enemies
  • Units will sprint towards their target when they are within attacking range
  • Unit target acquisition has been improved
  • Units in CPU Defend are more stable when lots of units are active
  • Defending units will not break cover after being in combat
  • Defending units will use extended range when retaliating against enemy fire
  • Units will change targets if there is an enemy unit much closer
  • Units will follow an enemy unit if they move out of vision
  • Units with their gun muzzle inside a building will now hit the building
  • If a unit gets stuck inside an object, they will now remove themselves before attacking
  • Darth Gunfrak has been eradicated!
Dog Tags
  • Added Dog Tags, a new representation of your matchmaking / leaderboards rank
  • Dog Tags now replace your wins and losses in the upper left corner of the HUB (your lifetime wins and losses are still accessible via the Leaderboards on the Intel screen)
  • For every win you’ll earn Dog Tags, and for every loss you’ll lose Dog Tags
  • The exact number of Dog Tags you could win or lose can be viewed by selecting View Details before choosing an opponent
  • Gain more Dog Tags for earning more stars while defeating harder opponents
