It's bad enough that so many people will only be going around fighting for kills anyway, even with teammates begging for help on objectives...it needs no encouragement by deathmatch events!

You damn REXO Snipers get a convenient anti-cloaker slot to fill with some nice HA.

That was a joke. Kinda obvious, I think.

1. I shoot 'em down with my boltdriver anyway, the HA was just for pose.

2. I'm assuming our playing fields will be matched in PS2.

But defensive AI is a different story. Also, I just had another thought...defensive AI could be used as a check on stealth capping. They could do away with the lattice system and basically, you can cap any flag no matter how deep in enemy territory, but there would be 2 defenses against it:
1. AI defenders providing a minimal defense that will prevent 1 man lone wolf caps
2. The farther a base behind the lines, the longer the cap timers/hack timers are, within reason.

It could even be possible to expend team or personal resources in order to buy additional AI forces to set up at bases.

AI Defense as base upgrades might be the best idea I have heard yet. Like you said, it might be the answer to 1 man or small contingent ghost hacks destroying the map every evening.

AI on a TIGHT LEASH might actually be beneficial. Very beneficial.

In theory, Auraxis is already a planet populated only by zombies...

They just "pew pew" instead of "bwwwaaaainzz"

Wow...I first had this idea for AI defenders stopping stealth capping by 1 guy way back in 2000/2001 when I was following WW2 Online and finally someone likes it, lol...

Of course, I also wanted fuel to be modeled in the game, limited aircraft available per hour/day(which would force you to fly your plane back to base and land after a mission and log it back into the base, otherwise your team loses one).
