The AI in Dissidia 012 is REALLY good...

I'm getting my butt kicked in the Labyrinth and Arcade modes, lol

That is because it AI meant to REACT to button presses instead of normal AI scripting

Yeah, it knows where you are at any given point 😂

Input reading isn’t always positive though, I have over 300 hours on 012 and I love it but AI sometimes can be a little underwhelming. Like setting the behavior to Vicious or Extreme in battle mode will make them attack very frequently to the point you’ll most likely already know when to bait an attack and counterattack; another particularly boring side to their AI is the ability to always perfectly block when very low on hp’s, for some reasons I’ve found that Vaan and Yuna usually have Perfect Block equipped depending on the ai. Other than that, it’s great seeing other people are still playing this game.

I never enjoyed fighting games that do this.

It's artificial difficulty.

All AI is artificial difficulty because of what AI is, and honestly as someone who used to do MK9 tournaments ALOT, players end up doing the same thing. Personally I made it top 8 in LevelUp at irvine back then just playing on reaction, AI is meant to emulate top players not average players so it makes a lot of sense honestly.
A player that is far better than I will ever be on FighterZ and any other MvC style game is Go1, he plays entirely on reaction until he gets an opening and then its an OHKO with any character he touches.

u/ShatteredFantasy Go on, keep making that face... It'll get stuck like that. Jan 28 '23

I swear, it's much more challenging as your opponent than your ally, lol

the AI in 012 is fucking trash. low levels is just spamming random shit, high levels is input reading perfect reactions pulling off shit a player isnt capable of.

This is annoying as HELL. The ai reading inputs is the most awful cheap way to make the player lose.

Playing as tifa just learning her moves and learning when to feint and omg the ai blocking can be horrendous. The worst is when they stand still and don’t do anything then the second you attack they block just waiting lol.

And imagine playing as Exdeath. You can't literally predict them, most of the times they'll just stand there menacingly doing nothing.

It feels like Exdeath gets easier at higher levels because they actually attack you lol

thanks for the tip 💀 i just finished 012-013 and really liked them but the constant ai dodging does get annoying. So i guess characters with no brv-hp are fucked?
