Would the god damn enemies stop -blam!-ing hiding?

Just wanted to say, before you read, this isn't about difficulty. This isn't about whether or not I find the game hard (which I don't) This is about the game's combat being boring as -blam!-. Seriously. Anyone here ever play an old school shooter? No cover-based shooting. No waiting for your shields to recharge. No occasionally taking potshots at enemies while you cheese by the doorway. No. You took the action dial, cranked it up to 10, broke it off, and started butchering everyone in the room with it. Repetitive? Yes. Fun? HELL YES! (Hell being the key word since that's where the best one takes place.) Destiny is repetitive as -blam!- but it seems to have lost the fun bit. The title says it all. The -blam!-ing enemies always hide. Doesn't matter if they outrank you by a million. Doesn't matter if there's a modifier on that makes them more aggressive. The only thing they do more aggressively is hug their cover. They take one hit and hide. Until you attack. Then they'll charge and not stop until they've chased you across the map. Seriously, the AI in this game is -blam!-ing retarded. Not easy, retarded. They don't act in a way that makes sense. They're cheap, and they're made to be cheap to extend the game's life cycle. It's retarded so are the AI. So for god's sake, would they stop -blam!-ing hiding?

    • [i]"The only thing they do more aggressively is hug their cover" "Seriously, the AI in this game is -blam!-ing retarded."[/i] So... Taking cover when the enemy is shooting at you... Is... Retarded? Taking cover = Retarded (???) Ummm... In that case may i congratulate you on effectively calling everyone (myself included) who has ever completed a Nightfall, ducked out of enemy fire in the Crucible, or been in a Raid for more than five minutes retarded by extension! lol Well done you on annoying and insulting an entire player base - Have a banana! ;)

      • Ranged enemies will chase you across the map to hit you once and run away. Others will backpedal endlessly around objects. ENDLESSLY. And people really think this AI is smart?

      • Call of duty 2 was an old school shooter. Try playing that shit on veteran and crank up your 'action' past ten with that. You want something to cry about? That would give you something to cry about.

      • I couldn't help but think you want call of duty by reading your first paragraph. I do agree with you that the AI needs to stop sucking dick and start fighting like warriors.

      • I bet the enemies are on the forums right now... "These guardians keep hiding!" "They regenerate their health! WTF!!!" "I got mowed down by gallys today... Nerf it Bungie!" Look at it from their point of view... It is just as bad for them.

        • I -blam!-ing hate having to run in circles to kill the last dreg. It makes the game feel retarded at some times.

        • No the false difficulty lies in the fact that the enemy keeps firing on a point the you were without seeing you has unlimited ammo with no reload. Legionairs with unlimited rockets knights with unlimited boomers.

          • Woah woah woah, Doom may have been the first true 3D FPS game, but Bungie turned it right on its head in 1994. Marathon was [i]the[/i] definitive FPS game (series) of the mid '90s. It took the rest of the genre a couple more years to catch on to the whole looking up and down thing. Not to mention including a plot. Go get yourself Aleph One and play through Marathon on the hardest difficulty. Earn that Vidmaster status. Then come back and tell me if you still want a horde of overpowered enemies to rush you for 16 hours straight. I sure as [i]hell[/i] prefer the current model. I do keep trying to sprint punch enemies like I did 20 years ago, it doesn't work.

            • Did you make a Doom reference? If so I applaud. Taking cover in battle is natural however.

              • This is the reason I haven't beat crota yet. The damn swordbearers wander around behind cover and chasing them down and running out to grab the sword in an awkward area eats up so much time

                • Tbh I agree. The enemies are extremely annoying in this game. Most annoying being Fallen -blam!-ing Captains. Shoot them > teleport > run to cover. Deplete their shields > hide until their shields regen. When shields are full > charge you across the map. -blam!-ing annoying

                • I just wish the BS random disconnects would get fuucking fixed. Right at the door to Phogoth....Anteater error Not exactly the nicest thing when they've still not fixed their previous fuuck up that made soloing harder.

                • Yeah let the enemies be like 50 cent,and run out in the open thinking their bullet proof. Sounds like a good idea.

                  • It's not so much as that, it should be more as [i]"would the god damn enemies stop being so bland & utter shite??"[/i] Honestly, There's only 3 types of enemies, the infantry the tank and the charger. Obvious infantry comes first dies first, tank sits back and takes your shots and dishes some of his own. And the charger, Is usually souped up with a melee or just plain charges you & dies/kills you.
