Hi folks, I'm a first time player of H&D2 and also a first time poster on here, so I apologise if this is posted in the wrong section....

Anyway, has anyone else had problems with the AI in H&D2 after patching to version 1.12?  After patching to version 1.12 I've noticed some things that I suspect are caused by the patch:

I'm currently playing the level "Spaghetti Airport" (Campaign 2).  In the game I currently have concealed my guys in one of the trenches at the airport.  I instructed my sniper to kill a distant enemy using Action - Kill command, but he just stood there!  I had to manually take control of him and do the job myself (you just can't get the manpower these days!)

I've also noticed that in this level when my guys are down the trench, they won't follow me when I use Movement - Follow Me command, unless I manually take control of everyone and move them out of the trenches then try the command again.

One other thing I noticed was that if I move one guy into a certain position, then select someone else, the first guy moves back to where he was originally - it's a total nuisance, especially when you consider that I needed him to be there for a reason!!!

Has anybody else noticed this kind of problem, and if so, is there a way around it?  Is there any real advantage to having 1.12 patch if I'm not playing multiplayer, because if there isn't I'll remove it....

Cheers folks!

No real advantage to having the patch if you are not playing multiplayer. I think the patch actually makes the BAR more inaccurate and basically is just supposed to sync HD2 and SS for multi.

Did you install the proper patch? If you have SS the patch should be the 21mb version found here http://hidden-and-dangerous.net/files/h ... ch1_12.zip.

Vit is absolutely correct, if you check the update files you will see what has or has not been updated / changed so you can choose which patch suits you. Even though I like the BAR a lot I just stick wit 1.12 so I can play in MP.

I recently played all of the sp with 1.12 and on Spaghetti airport the boys had no problem navigating the trenches.

Maybe your sharpshooter isnt much of a shot yet, spaghetti is an early level .

As for the BAR... its devastating, even on 1.12 its powerfull and acurate. If it was even better before 1.12 it had to be extremely overpowered.

I doubt any of your problems are 1.12 related.
