@@baumber1919 Yeah that's fair. In my opinion the best way is to either check the log looking for websocket requests (which would indicate multiplayer) or turning off wifi once the game has loaded to see if the players are still moving which would indicate ai, however that cannot always be trusted as the game could easily implement a check for network status. The reason why these games do so well is really because of how easy it is to fake, even for someone with the technical knowhow.

As someone who writes AIs for other games, I'd say that there's many ways to make the AI more believable.

Would suggest 3 things: 1. all enemies need to go after the health drops at some point, maybe it needs a radius but that radius needs to be a conceivable screen size. 2. Normal enemies should randomly switch to the hostile enemy type when in range of other enemies, The random chance should be proportional to how close the enemies are together. 3. There should be a small chance of a n00b player becoming either a hostile enemy or a normal enemy at any time, and an even smaller chance that a normal enemy will freeze, become a n00b or disappear with the words "disconnected" over head... I think these would take the believability of the game to over 9000.

[@3liony]

I'd say instead of having a separate hostile ai to attack the other ai's just have the ai target who's closest regardless of if it's the player or ai (or actually what I would probably do is have it "lock on" to someone within a certain range and then change when they die or leave range and maybe have a chance of changing to someone closer to simulate how people kinda get tunnel vision when focused on one target and to prevent just like, wildly switching back and forth between pursuing different targets.)

Another thing this would need to be convincing that I haven't seen anyone mention is.. they need to not perfectly face you all the time. No human player is that pixel perfect with their mouse.

agree. I think spawn in fake players need to spawn in facing north same as the player and yea slight delay. and definitely the fakes should be more wary of the nearest bot, trying to face them to stave off attacks. next step would be processes for AI to decide who to attack. nearest? the one attacking? the one running? leave a powerful killer alone and run away? team up? could get complex...

the part about the AI attacking other players probably has to do with trying to make it actually engaging for the *person* playing it.

I would add a health bar above or by the enemy's name. In my opinion, it would be a lot more fun to pick up a defeated enemy weapon instead of buying them.

The constant grouping on you, never grouping on each other, and always pointing EXACTLY at their target is a pretty fast give-away that these are bots. Otherwise, very nice!

[@sometechydude2324]

If you want to upgrade the username system, a good idea could be to make it so another enemy with the same username as another enemy can’t spawn unless the original enemy either despawns or dies, and if they despawn the weapon of the enemy with the same username has to have either the same or a higher level weapon as the original because they might have upgraded their weapon through kills, but if they die they have to have the same weapon because that’s their starter weapon

The fact that the enemies dont attack each other makes this very unbelievable

[@alexskorpik11play79]

you can also add these types of enemies -The hider = Hides in a corner of the map, Upon hiding him he runs or attacks you. (Higher chance of running than attacking) [List of chance to become an hider with an weapon] [No Weapon - 15%( *fear* )] [This fist thingy add up - 5%] [Bat - 3.5%] [everything else after this would be 1% until one point] [Pickaxe - 5%] [Bat upgraded - 10%] [Spear - 25 %] [Spear 35% (Doesnt want to lose a high streak) ] [Katana 10% (Scared to lose his katana/Streak)] -The teamer = Spawns automaticlly in a group of 3-5, Every AI have an 10% chance to Aim for the player (hunt down) each 20 seconds, When an AI hunts down the player, If the AI gets to 75% hp or lower the others AI will run at a fast rate to his location to help him fight against the player. [List of what they can spawn with] [Bat - 7.5%] [Knife - 5%] [Pickaxe - 2.5%] [Bat Upgraded - 1%] [Spear - 0.5%] [Axe - 0.1%] [can be a try hard too, 3% to be a tryhard but they have 20% less hp] [Tryhard only Katana - 0.05%] -Also u should make tryhards a hostile AI. I mean it will have a streak like the player so getting 5 AIs killed will get him the fist thing , etc But he only targets an AI with 25%. and has a bigger chance to spawn with no weapon and a bigger chance of spawning with an katana. Also make Noob ais Spam their fists and actually target you when u get close to him and they sometimes will just move sideways while they're targetting you. Make normal AIs move sideways while backing up And make normal Noobs become a hider once their hp is below 15%, and Normals become a hider with 10% if their hp is below 10%. Make The - goku - Skin only accessable if u once had 50+ Kill streak and u need to buy it with 100 coins. Cause op. and also you can add perks to buy in the shop (Can equip only 1 (2 if u bought second slot for like 50 coins) Perk at a time) Knockback(I,II,II,IV,V) -- Just knockback upgrade. [Knockback] [We'll use Studs (Squares) In the map to indicate the knockback.] [ Knockback I = 35 Coins, You do knockback Now! Half a stud. ] [ Knockback II = 50 Coins, You do bigger knockback now. Wonder why you need more? a Stud.] [Knockback III = 85 Coins, Wow uh, Thats a solid knockback.. (+Stun for 0.1 second) 1.5 Studs.] [Knockback IV = 135 Coins, Pretty op.. (+ Extra cooldown of 0.5 seconds, +Stun for 0.3 seconds) 2.5 Studs] [Knockback V = 175 Coins, Im pretty sure you can knock people out now. (+Cooldown 1 second, +Stun 0.5 second) 3.25 Studs] Thats all i have to say!

Id like to see some AI improvements. Them being able to rotate would go a huge way in making them more believable.

[@bujitself]

"I'll put a little bit more effort in adding usernames". Just add 50% chance for it to be 'unknown'

[@8nvibin454]

One thing that makes it obvious it’s bots is that they have perfect sun staring at you when they are going for you. Also I would make it so that they just go for the nearest enemy unless if it’s already in a fight because sometimes it still looks like they are ganging up on you.

[@WhatTheBleep24]

You should make it so if you kill someone with a higher weapon, you get the weapon. Also make it so that the name list picker doesn’t pick a name that has already been picked

[@blackjackveteran]

Also the ai rotates to the player perfectly. There could be a delay or an offset

[@iangallagan5312]

I remember playing one of these IO games a long time ago without internet and being so confused about how I was getting into a server. Now I know.

[@MRBFDTL]

You should've made it so an enemy comes close to another enemy they will start attacking each other instead all of them looking at you and targeting you

[@konatea]

Ah yes I love it when all these very real people are all going after me or ignoring me completely

[@kezkriune]

Other AI ideas: The Defender: Will run away from most enemies and will punch randomly or if they get too close. The Gang: The gang will spawn as several players, usually with the same color and or same name, they will never attack each other, only other players. The Power Up hunter: Will act like the defender until they find a power up, at which point they will attack everything. The Weapon Hunter: The same as the Power Up Hunter, only with weapons. All AIs: They will actually attack each other and not just the player. Some will spawn without items, some will spawn without power ups, some will spawn without both. The ones that start without both are usually the newbie characters.

Heyo im a subscriber of Maddbz i just wanted to say your old dbz videos were my childhood and today after hearing the news of the passing of dragon ball creator (akira toriyami) flooded my brain with nostalgia,so i was wondering where you went and found you here,im glad to see your doing well here still on youtube as a gamedev.i hope everything goes well and take care:)

[@CosmicAggressor]

The real problem is that most of the enemies look at the player. If you want convincing fake multiplayer the enemies have to react to each other.

[@thereborne5219]

the fact that they lock on you and keeps looking at you gives away that they are ai

[@trashchief6496]

I used to play mobile io games and all of them let the player pause the game. They didn’t even try to hide it.

[@hifive789]

how he casually says "I accidentily made a first person shooter" and then "oh crap"

[@0xEARTH]

okay, so a few things i actually want to suggest; • when normal/tryhard enemies first spawn, give them a "cooldown" that makes it so that they don't immediately begin fighting. this makes it really seem like it's a person who's logged in, since a very small amount of people will log in and literally immediately start killing. • when fighting tryhard enemies, give it a small chance to despawn at low health. this will make it look like someone's combat logging to prevent death, which for something titled "tryhard" i think is a good detail. • make noob enemies despawn after a random amount of time in front of the player's view, even if they're being attacked. makes it look like those newbies who are like "nah this is too hard" • make tryhards have a chance to go after noobs instead of the player. this will make it look like it's a vet taking advantage of a new guy to get free kills. • and lastly, if not already implemented, don't let noob characters have starter weapons. this will make it more believable that they're actually noobs.

[@CaptainPlaythrough]

A fix, When they spawn they turn to the player within a millisecond. Like, if I joined an IO game i wouldn't snap to the nearest person that fast and run at them, I casually start working my way up to really fighting.

[@sinsaun]

He should add an enemy type that always rushes for the power ups, or maybe one that tries to avoid all other characters

[@RGDFF]

2:50 bro took "instructions unclear" To a whole another level

[@likeablekiwi6265]

you should've added a random delay on reaction time when the bot just spawned in front of you. a chance for them to just spectate or randomly become afk then lastly add a hostility proxy which makes bots fight each other if they get too close this might even allow a group to target a single bot making it look more realistic since you get targeted too

[@likeablekiwi6265]

maybe also add vanishing bots? you know sometimes people just gotta quit the game at unexpected moments

[@shadowyposts7275]

A mobile version would be really cool and the multiplayer is really realistic the way to make the game better is to add more wepons and make the health,kills,coins and everything on that place should be a bit bigger because it makes the screen look empty,maybe adds more secrets and a better main menu.Good job

it's a bit weird for bot/s to spawn right next, to you to make it more realistic you make them spawn out of the player's sight so it also looks they were looking for someone as well, like out of the the whole map they decided to spawn right next to you
