With “Season 2 Reloaded” of Call of Duty: Warzone 2, the developers aimed to revise the AI in DMZ. The NPCs can now use a variety of different vehicles, but this leads to total chaos.
Players who regularly engage in the DMZ are likely familiar with the following scenario: You just captured a Stronghold and NPC reinforcements are already moving in. The AI is an integral part of the DMZ, and players must constantly decide how to tactically deal with this threat.
The longer you linger in an area, the greater the risk that the NPCs will call for reinforcements. So far, you could rely on the NPCs arriving in an upgraded pick-up truck. But apparently, the AI discovered with the mid-season update that there are other vehicles in Al’Mazrah. Since the last update, the bots are using different rides – or at least trying to.
Season 2 Reloaded brings new content, many new features, bug fixes, and a ton of smaller changes. You can find an overview here in the video:
NPCs in DMZ are extremely accurate for months – but apparently have no driver’s license
The community has essentially been frustrated with the NPCs in the DMZ since the release of Call of Duty: Warzone 2. Players often criticized their accuracy. The bots were simply too strong, especially for players who were alone.
But even if you were playing in a group of three, the bots were no easy opponents. The longer you got involved in fights, the harder it became for you. The bots were so numerous and so accurate that you quickly exhausted your supply of armor plates.
Although the developers have somewhat limited the AI’s strength with several nerfs, many players believe it’s not enough. The satisfaction is now even greater that the hated NPCs behind the wheel are extremely incompetent. A video that shows the bots struggling to maneuver a truck has gone viral on Reddit.
Under the Reddit post, there are numerous mocking comments. For instance, the user u/mczulu72 writes, “Level 1 driving skill; Level 100 shotgun-sniping skill.” The user u/Diligent012 adds, “This game never ceases to amaze me – lol.”
Other players believe that the NPCs must be drunk, as you often find liquor and cheap wine in the DMZ. Two items that you tend to find exactly when you are desperately searching for ammunition or armor plates.
