    Is there matchmaking for the campaign and operations?

    I'd be more interested in this if it wasn't so co-op focused.

    I'm guessing he had no friends to play with.
    There is always a way.

    I love how a co-op marketed game is docked on review scores because it doesn't cater to solo players. Love that logic.

    To think they gave Star Wars outlaws an 8 lol
    Unpacking is a relaxing game lol but putting games like cricket in a game pass is blasphemous

    Imagine playing a co op game solo and complaining about it

    I can't wait for this. Just need to finish BF4 and Back 4 Blood (also, 7/10 seems low to be honest. Most are giving it 910 to 10/10).

    It's been marketed as both a solo and a co-op game. Tom docked it points because the teammate AI didn't even work while playing solo: "I've had the AI literally stand there while I battle it out with a boss, watching me take hit after hit — I must have offended them somehow."

    Guys, just bc someone doesn’t agree with you doesn’t mean they’re wrong. This was his experience with the game. Whiners. I’ll be jumping in on Monday!
    Go Dawgs! Let’s go for 3 in ‘23!

    I'm speaking globally mate, I'm talking about those who gave star wars outlaws an 8 and it's the same site i guess

    I kinda hope SP AI is not worse than in Left 4 Dead from 2008.
    Happy gaming to you all!

    the reviews on this site bro, lmao
  • Posted on 04 September 24 at 19:24
    People getting mighty sensitive in here. If the AI is as bad as it’s claimed then it deserves to be docked points. Half baked features don’t get a pass

    Okay so I consider ineffective AI teammates to be broken (once upon a time we lampooned games like Daikatana for this and microwaved their game CDs).

    I also consider the issues with Eternal War matchmaking to be broken.

    This is a “do NOT buy until fixed” situation. Thanks for the review but I think the point of reviews is also to tell the consumer whether to spend their hard earned cash on a new full priced video game or movie in the theaters. I’d suggest a thumbs up/down or go/no go be added to reviews of newly released titles, which can be updated if and when they are fixed.

    But this is a thumbs down scenario, no matter how cool the intent is.

    (Final note, earnable cosmetics was cool and unexpected, but this is a Warhammer game so expect a bunch of paid ones too)

    With that logic I wouldn’t be surprised if this site would rate left 4 dead 2 a 6 out of 10 for bad bots if you play by yourself. Personally can’t wait for my buddies and I to play this game and rip to the single player boys. Glory to the emperor

    If bots are added as a feature then the feature should work and work well. QED

    Bad AI is bad AI, you shouldn't excuse it just because you can also play in co-op.
