I'm going thru the single player on veteran difficulty now....seems like it'll take me forever since in almost a week i finally passed the first mission.  and it appears its just going to get even harder since i noticed the AI for my allies don't really help at all?  

when i first went thru it all on normal, the AI was really good at staying out of my way, moving when they need to move, and hitting some targets every once in a while.  but why in the hell are they practically not helping at all now that its on veteran?  and what's worse is that they get in my way all the time, where before they used to move out of my way when i got near them.  and i've even spotted some just standing there instead of taking cover, or advancing, or firing at enemies?  just seems like a big difference

or maybe i'm just that much better than the AI now (when i used to be the one standing around  )

i beat the game on hardened and am now playing through it on veteran and i dont see anything of what your talking about.  my allies are making almost as many kills as i am and they have had my back plenty of times.  no matter what diffaculty i have played on they still tend to get in your way at times.  overall the AI just keeps improving with the higher diffaculties IMO.

I think you got it. I've beat it on veteran, and you just realize that you have to actually fire your weapon, and you are becoming much faster than your squad!

I agree with kage.  I am on my 3rd time thought COD2 and the AI keeps getting better.  I used to get all of the kills and now I have a hard time keeping up with them.  My wife was watching me play last night and the AI allie picked up 2 grenades and threw them back at the germans and then ran for cover while firing.  My wife asked my couldn't I do that?

 

ah, perfect example of good.  now here's my scenario:

i'm crouched behind cover.  and 2 of my allies come to my side, one on each side.  they aren't even using cover!  and then 2 grenades drop right by us.  and instead of them moving so I can move, they both keep shooting, and nades blow up on me.

That's part of being a veteran You gotta know when your squad is going to try to screw you

Yeah, and then wait until you get to Hill 400 and you try to take shelter in the bunker and the Krouts throw about fifty grenades in and your game does a checkpoint save.

I do find it pretty gay that the krauts pick you out of a group of 10 people and kill you all the time. Pretty lame i think.
