good find .. thank you

Seems decent... if the AI is at least up to par with Raven Shields then I would be satisfied. I still play Terrorist Hunt frequently but it is getting dated and I run a mod to have iron sights - and half of them are so poor it is not worth using.

The AI definitely looks decent, though I have noticed many times in those vids when the AI is clearly supposed to be defending a point and they instead decide to run around outside of it in your line of fire ...

I'm not expecting perfect AI on launch, but hopefully TWI can polish them up a bit so they look a little less silly, even if it comes a bit after. Regardless, it's looking a ton more fun to play against AI than RO1 ever was. Coop is going to be a blast.

Don't forget; they might be running this on "easy" mode so they can show the game off without people getting shot too often.

Difficulty does not normally scale with enemies becoming more or less intelligent, but through accuracy and such.
I dont see how playing the game on the highest difficulty would stop the AI from running outside, but rather that they are simply more accurate.

Compared to some other previews posted, this one is pretty decent.
Clearly explains the pro's and cons and the appeal to certain kind of gamers

Yeah, that's mainly what I meant. If you can turn up the difficulty at least them running outside will have a bigger chance for them get them a kill instead of missing pointblank like a blind kamikaze.

would be a nice way of scaling the difficulty though, like doom's difficulty scaling of extra enemies and less ammo pickups

A fairly decent writeup that seems to praise the single player game without getting mushy. For the most part, the concerns are with the AI, but then in single player campaigns, that what most people are worried about no matter the game.

Not really.
It could basically mean that even when you have to attack, you can just sit outside the building you have to take and let the enemy come to you untill they are all dead and you can move on freely.
Would be nice if that is the way attacking worked but it doesnt, so yeah.
