Dom' AI sucked. Even with the Sniper Rifle he wasn't all that helpful.

Two off the top of my head.

EDIT: Oh and Kingdom Hearts. Donald saved my life countless times.

I don't count them because they're super RPG's, for the most part. If you get one of the tanks like Wrex or Ashley to full durability and give them a badass weapon they can solo half an army for you.

There really was nothing at all impressive about Sheva's AI, other than sometimes she wouldn't get herself killed.

Wait, that's not true. It was nice how she knew what ammo to give me sometimes. Unfortunately sometimes she'd still walk into an instant death while I was walking the other way.

At least the man who cried Maria is more intelligent than Sheva.

Dude, it was a joke.
I guess I should use smilies more often

The game itself gives you an extensive backstory recap in the Library section of the main menu.

Okay, so. Who hates Reapers?

My death count was impeccable until those things started appearing. And I refuse to let them force my death grade down with their silly one-hit kills.

I hate them, the worst foe in the game IMO.

Left 4 Dead/GoW have better AI then RES 5!!! No, No

But I agree with Donald on KH, he's a lifesaver.

Yeah, it's pretty unrealistic. I was hoping to use that to get the Lifeguard achievement sooner, but ended up getting it the old fashioned way.

By letting me get smashed and shot and beaten 😛

Halfof the ones you listed come from Squad-based RPG's where you can givee them specific insutrctions, whereas i nRE5 you can't. I don't think that's a fair compairosn, especially considering that in games like GRAW if you don't give them any instructions they'll die in the first few minutes of the fight.

But regardless, I'm intrigued by why she keeps killing herself in your game, as that didn't happen to me very often, only when I had her in attack mode.

You know that in support mode she'll only follow you right? As long as you keep moving anyway.

Dude I'm talking about Sheva's AI. The other AIs in RE5 are good.

Not to mention her AI actually improves if you treat her better from what I hear.

Yeah and I've yet to have a real problem with her, compared to Bill's AI (L4D) she's fantastic.

I don't see where all this her AI is crap is coming from, she's yet to let me down.

Half of those are RPGs? I count one.

I never had her in attack mode, not once. I left her in support mode the whole time and on the final boss she still would walk into the spinning tentacles of instant death a few times. It didn't happen to me very often either, like I said several times, it just happened at the end of the game mostly. Not constantly but enough to prove that she did not have spectacular AI.

Doesn't matter if you think it's a fair comparison, you asked which games had better AI companions, I listed them. You didn't specify that you only wanted to hear about games with a single AI partner. And while yeah some of those games listed are squad based the AI is still solid enough to not get killed half the time. They know not to walk into enemy fire and I'm sure if there were spinning tentacles they'd be smart enough not to stroll into them.

Chris - I need ammo

Sheva - No way.

Huge Mijini kills Chris.

You're Dead

That's what happened one time.

rofl.. sheva would sell the draws off chris' ass if it got her a few bucks to upgrade her M9..

partner play is the way ta go 😉

AI is a rather tender subject though.. if they were too good the game can get way too difficult.... but if you gave sheva too much of a good AI.. it would just be like "lol.. *hand sheva more rifle bullets* "
/headshot
/headshot
/headshot
*runs around picking up items and money*
*feeds sheva some more ammo*
*repeat*

I fight zombies while that woman shoots my ass. How do you think this all started?

I meant to say FPS, sorry.

That's pretty crazy. She only died one time against Wesker when I fought him.

Well, it's not a fair comparison, so, yeah. And it does matter. The AI in those games are not very smart if you take into consideration that all they do is point and shoot. They don't walk into enemy fire because half of those games you listed, more than half, involve a cover system, and so the AI is scripted to just go behind cover and fire from it at the enemy, whch is exactly what Sheva does, the difference being that 90% of the game you don't have cover so you're just out there.

In GRAW, Mass Effect, Rainbow Six, and Halo 3, my AI men would get gunned down in only a couple of minutes if we were in an environment where there was no cover... they did the exact same dumb things like walking into enemy fire and the like. So, it's hard for me to see your point.

I'm not saying you're lying, just that I've had different experiences.

Alex in Half Life Ep 2 is downright an assassin with that pistol.

Of RE5, it was an automatic buy but the reviews have been decent, but not spectacular and its 70 bucks CAN, which is downright brutal.

It's Las Plagas/Uroboros, not Zombies just to be clear, Zombies haven't been in a main Resident evil game since Code: Veronica.

And well don't know what I can say to that, other then that's never happened to me, on my screen she kills all the foes for me most of the time and she hardly gets herself into any real trouble she just has trouble when it comes to healing she always heals me when I just get a tiny scratch but thats ok, I just don't give her herbs.

This is the same for me. I literally stood there watched her kill every AK-74 soldier by herself with a sniper rifle without getting hurt. In that one part of that one level where you go onto an elevator thing and walk on this catwalk while she's on the ground below, and all those Lickers attack you? She killed them all for me even though she was below me. She's ace for me.

Same here, I honestly can't find any real fault with her, not a single one other then she's a bit too hasty when it comes to using healing items.
