190 AI needs to be improved

[III/JG2Gustav05]

In quick mission I  am in a FW190A3  with a wingman to start from 2000m to face 2 yaks  which are 1000m lower than us. My wingman just rushed to the bottom and did suicidal turn and burn with Yaks, with no doubt, he is doomed. every time he got shoot down in less than 3 mins. This is going to be painful in a FW190 campaign. Could BOS team take a look on that?

Agreed. I also dislike that my wingman acts on his own without paying attention to orders. I can order him to stay in formation as I attack a bomber but all of a sudden he breaks formation and cuts in right before my nose and starts shooting.

Depends on the AI level, too... in doing quick mission duels in a Yak vs a 109, on regular the 109 will invariably get in a turning fight of doom, while on other settings the 109 will start taking advantage of the vertical.

 

Indeed, on novice, in fact, the AI gives me more trouble than on regular, simply because on novice eventually the AI will start an upward turning climb that I can't match in my Yak (of course, once I do get on his 6 he's easier to handle than regular).

 

Though, I will say that one of RoF's greatest flaw (at least out of the box, there are AI mods out there that fix it) is seeing SPADs get into turning fights with Albatrosses. Very painful to watch.

My wingman is set as Veteran. I will try the ACE setting, I doubt if it will change a lot.
