Narrows MP Simulator | Endless Halo 3 AI War Mod
2“I present to you…..the Narrows MP training sim.”
I decided to do something a little different for my next MCC AI mod. This time, I designed a little multiplayer practice environment, kind of like what is available in Halo Infinite. The map features Spartan AI that behave somewhat like players you can encounter online in matchmaking. (A big thanks to MasterOof for originally designing these characters.) The map can be used to warm up for MP, practice strategies, or to just mess around and have fun with. A total of 7 game modes can be toggled for the AI to play with you, all from within the map via control switches. This is just a trial of this kind of mod, so fear not. I will still be making Campaign AI Battle maps. Depending on how you guys like this format - I can certainly design more mods like this on other Halo 3 MP maps of various sizes.
Features:
An endless AI war with all bots able to respawn indefinitely.
SEVEN gamemodes in one mod, all selectable with my AI switch system. More to come after release!
Pathfinding nearly everywhere.
Realistic AI weapon choices, using gear found on Narrows.
AI throw grenades in similar style as players, using grenade types found on Narrows.
You can trade weapons with friendly AI, just like in campaign. AI can use all weapons.
AI Shield and Health values identical to MP.
Bots can dual wield all compatible weapons, and use all equipment found on Narrows.
Bots use the exact same spawn positions as players.
AI come in Halo 3 Classic multiplayer armor sets.
AI feature accurate MP selectable colors. Both for FFA players, and team colors.
AI can use man cannons.
Bots can camp, rush, and predict enemy positions. All behaviors selected at random.
Bots can melee and use melee weapons.
....and more!
AI Game Modes:
2v2 Team Slayer
4v4 Team Slayer (Default on game start)
4v4 Team Hammers
4v4 Team Snipers
5v5 Team Slayer
6 Way Lone Wolves FFA
Multi Team Slayer - 4 Teams
Joinable Teams:
RED*
BLUE
GREEN
ORANGE
*Red team is not officially compatible with an AI faction. In two team game modes, join Orange to be allied with the Red team. In multi team, join Purple.
**FFA players cannot be allied with, their teams cannot be joined.
Bugs/Quirks:
Co-op does not entirely function with this mod. Bots do not sync properly for clients. This is a networking limitation that only 343/MS can fix.
AI cannot actually pick up weapons, grenades, or equipment. They have large amounts of variations of gear they can spawn with. AI can spawn with weapon pickups they respawn near.
There are some leftover Marine animations for the AI. I did not have enough time to figure out how to remove these. This will eventually be fixed in the future.
Please keep in mind these are fan-made AI for a 17+ year old game/engine. They behave somewhat like, but are not capable of perfectly mimicking Human players.
AI have infinite ammo and seemingly bottomless clips with weapons.
