[2021] Co-Op Suggestion to Help Long-Term

First Thing's First! I split the above post out of its old home and to the PVE section.

So a few thing!

1) Co-Op as it is now is enjoyed by many folks. The AI may be straightforward in its execution, but it's fun to play off that and see how much a single Captain to pull off, especially if it's mostly a game filled with bots and the friendly bots die early.

2) There IS a version of AI that is more dynamic, but it's limited to Randoms Battles at Tier 4 and below. If you would like to experience bots that move and juke and such, try playing Tier 1-4 Random Battle during off-peak hours. This can provide a mostly Player vs AI experience with only the occasional player on the other side.

3) There are changes coming to Co-Op with the upcoming Patch. Boggzy elevated a concern about poor accuracy, which is getting addressed. And there could be something else to talk about as well~

There wasn't anything about my message to fix <3 There are quite a few vocal folks on this forum that really do enjoy Co-Op the way it is now.

However, the Bot AI aim was disrupted by some coding changes a few months back. That's being adjusted with the coming patch. If it needs further adjustment, we'll keep dialing it in until we get it right~

As for the other thing I hinted at, it's nothing earth-shattering but I feel it'll be welcome <3

Grumbling about stuff is time-honored tradition for Gamers <3 When you like something, you invest in it and care about it.

I was more referring to the overall mode concept. Bots spawn and charge forward. While there's some anti torpedo code that was implemented or some other basic maneuverability stuff, the mode remains a very straight forward experience.

While there are folks that have no interest in it because it's nothing like Random Battles, others appreciate it because it ISN'T like Random Battles. It's a get-in-and-shoot stuff mode, because shooting ships is fun.
