Whenever I play through Behind Enemy Lines, I notice a few things:
a. The enemies never miss (even the freighters no matter your ship movements)
b. They only go after the player and ignore your wingman--even if your wingman engages them first, then then turn to you once you get in range
c. The enemies launch 5000000 missiles at you asap til you're dead
I've been recently playing through Wing Commander 3 on a DOS machine and well... even on Crazy difficulty, they don't quite do that. Sure, it's freakin hard and the enemies do their darndest not to die, but, it is manageable. It's not like you fly into a swarm of 5 Vaktoth's and suddenly get gang raped by all of them (who never miss) while your wing commander just dances around never getting shot at while all you can do is dodge the whole time. In BEL, this is exactly how it is
That's on medium difficulty, too.
So what I'm curious about is, and I know ya'll have been working hard (amazing stuff I'm seeing) and I truly appreciate all the efforts--is the AI being modified in the final version to be more WC like?
