Training an AI team at a shooter game - I don’t see any way how this could go wrong

Nothing takes long in AI world, haha...

ermonski - 2019-06-07

@K3NatCSS were you talking about the Hopper Bot mod for Quake 3?

Januschka Steinuschka - 2019-06-07

FPS are far from beeing the most complex and hardest to learn games for AI. Dota was.
5on5, endless possibilities, items, heroes, timings of map objectives, cooldowns, HP/Mana(pool/regeneration).

ermonski - 2019-06-07

@Januschka Steinuschka fighting games too

Sophia Cristina - 2019-06-07

​@Januschka Steinuschka I don't think so, we must have numbers to say that, fps have too much considerations, looking at it looks not complex, but you must consider that fps tries to approximate real battles and modern fps have most of that and old fps have the basics of that, and that fps have unpredictable physics composition to make its complexity compared to RTS that have exact maths for it complexity, its hard to say which is more complex, and real battles consider even wind velocity changing in sound, speed, acceleration of the units through an area (like tanks, soldier average speed, cars, supply and etc), geometry (angle of shotting, height descent per time, speed of bullet, map area, map best direction strategy per obstacle, amount of time to wait per obstacle, change in acceleration per obstacle), randomness (bullet with direction changed by wind, prediction of target next position in z, x, y, stray bullets, predict enemy view focus, predict opposite forces coordinates, predict opposite forces z-coordinate since being above or below your ground level is advantageous, predict hiding spots, predicting hidden spots from snipers, grenade final coordinate, mortars accuracy, rockets accuracy and other projectiles accuracy, enemies formation and squads and its tactics and strategies, and etc...), gravity, forces, i could go on and on in how complex is fps, z-coordinate is a pain, imagine you are on a hallway and the enemies know your z position, but you don't know if they are below or above ground level, how you deal with that? I know lot of tactics for that... I play fps since kid and fps have abstract composition of strategy and people miss those, but its pretty complex, also, most of first computer work in the beginning of its history was used by military.

yep, quake was a good game

jona - 2018-08-22

Quake Champions is never going to be as good as Quake 3 or Quake Live because it has stupid abilities and other crap that makes the game unbalanced and dumbed down. That's not what Quake is about. Diabotical will be the true Quake 3 successor.

Pepega - 2018-08-22

Quake Champions is never going to be as good as Q3 or QLive because it has stupid abilities and other stuff that makes the game unbalanced and dumbed down. That's not what Quake is about. Diabotical will be the true Q3 successor.

B. A - 2018-08-23

@jona QC is actually pretty good, you still need to learn how to rocket jump and strafe jump, the abilities and diffrent HP and speed just add another layer to the game.

Frax - 2019-06-04

Y'all should also check out QCDE, a fan demake.

EarlGrey - 2019-08-25

@jona If it has all of Q3's mechanics and added "stupid abilities and crap".. how can it be "dumbed down"? If aynthing it has added complexity. You are making no sense..

Thomas Synths - 2018-08-05

I love how you are able to instill suspense when narrating AI results.

Sophia Cristina - 2019-06-06

That is how you know someone is truly passionate about something... I'll admit that this AI hype is making me addict and i understand his emotions, hahaha...

Moby Motion - 2018-08-04

Really exciting because of the sparse internal rewards and long term planning. A step towards AI agents that are useful in real life.

C M - 2018-08-11

You mean AI agents that CAN OUTCLASS humans in real life... that open pretty scary scenarios if you think a bit further than the simple "ooh it can be useful if I don't find my way home after work" ... think about an enemy squad of robot soldier equipped with that AI and with the movement skills of today's darpa robots... without talking of military autonomous swarm killer drones !!! It is another step toward the abyss. WE MUST STOP CREATING SO ADVANCED AI OR THERE WILL NOT BE LIMITS TO ITS USAGE!

DiamondGuy 36 - 2018-08-05

This is incredible work! These developments, for example AI developing its own definition of a reward, are exactly what are needed for more complex AI agents. I was thinking the other day about how rewards would be defined for complex AI problems, and realized that humans can use context to understand whether or not they are succeeding, and use this to determine the actions they need to take to do so. I am looking forward to what this research leads to!

Lionel Mandrake - 2018-08-11

Or the introduction of long/short term memory (maybe it's not new, I just subscribed)

DiamondGuy 36 - 2018-08-12

There are a few different memory models that can be used, an LSTM is one option, but i guess it depends on the task.

JeiShian Music - 2018-08-05

I don't understand. This doesn't look like Quake 3 at all.

Brooke Stern - 2018-08-15

I don't think it would have mattered with this group of human players, they were so predictable I never thought they looked good at any point. I mean if you are playing an AI surely being unpredictable is the first key tactic, changing your tactics every few minutes would be second, then third everybody sticking together as a team and all communicating to target the same enemy at once.

They didn't even look like they were thinking, they were playing dumb computer tactics versus a smart computer lol no chance of a win like that!

If your list of conditions had been applied to the game AND the players weren't absolute dog tripe, then I think the result would have been the other way around. Haha poor dears they got smacked red bottoms, beat by upgraded aim bots.

Dave Lister - 2018-08-15

I've beat aimbots before in Quake, even in a 1on1 match. There are videos of the best players beating cheaters as well. I doubt this AI would win against a team like team liquid in Quake Champions. Probably worse in a 1on1 match as well.

Brooke Stern - 2018-08-15

Exactly my thoughts! Any reasonably skilled human team could have beaten this AI, I didn't think it looked at all impressive; the problem was it was not tested as the human players were garbage in the video.

Liquid would absolutely smash this AI, no doubt about it after having seen them at QuakeCon.

Even if they did end up losing a few matches on the trot, you know they would come back with a better strategy and win after that. The only way an AI would be better, is by cutting the oxygen to the room ala HAL from 2001 :D

Quake 3 bots also played Quake 3 18 years ago.
They did neither of these things very well though.

munaf patni - 2018-08-14

Microsoft's tai did that 2 years back

Nudge Bott - 2018-08-20

I mean the Quake III AI already knows how to trash talk

Landon J Powell - 2018-08-20

It also knows how to play CTF already.

Zarion 11 - 2018-09-10

Great.
I've been watching Alpha Zero and Leela Zero playing chess at incredible strength. The playing style is a bit 'humanlike' but so much better. Maybe you can do a report on that?

pfft. Put it against Cypher or Evil. Or Rapha.
Poor DeepMind... It would learn to lose rather, hehe

Eugene Tsybulevskij - 2018-08-07

Looking at demos, i think that decrease of accuracy and reaction time was not big enough. I think, that AI wins just because it aims and shoots faster than human.
If i'm wrong then creators should publish this game and give a chance to anyone to beat this AI. I bet that AI is still bad at tactics and if it cant get advantage of faster aiming/shooting - it will loose.

Sayam Qazi - 2019-06-07

@taragnor You really misunderstood. Here to aim they are only given raw pixel input. They need to build the idea of enemy and hitting it and figure out it is a rewarding thing it is not like the bots are getting 3d positions and models geometry. Also if you are familiar with AI you would know what they have acheived here is insane.

taragnor - 2019-06-07

@Sayam Qazi Image processing was groundbreaking when it was first done, but this is not the first time such a feat has been accomplished using Artificial Neural Networks. Nowadays plenty of AIs are able to derive information from images, so it's not really some new feat in terms of AI.

Sayam Qazi - 2019-06-07

​@taragnor This is not image processing in its traditional sense. Really you have no idea. I will need about half an hour of face to face to explain to you the difference and how hard this feat is. Since that is not gonna happen I am just giving up and hope you will get it somehow from someone else. (Pardon the grammar. English is not my language)

taragnor - 2019-06-07

@Sayam Qazi I'd assume it's similar to what self-driving cars have to do to detect obstacles and pedestrians. It seems to be about the same sort of task roughly, though I could be wrong. I know the fundamentals of neural network AI, but I haven't studied image processing specifically.

Sayam Qazi - 2019-06-07

@taragnor I am just glad you took my comment positively and I wish we could discuss this more but youtube comments are just a very tedious place for it. Again kudos for keeping the conversation nice. One pointer I can give you though. For self driving cars you train them to segment the scene into dangerous/ safe areas. Which is orders of magnitude simpler. In this game though you just give them the input and tell them to succeed with no information whatsoever so even the idea of what is safe and what is dangerous has to emerge for itself. This is a very crude explanation but hope you get the point.

Dick Bird - 2019-06-04

i require this ai in retail game form immediately. see to it.

stkfr - 2018-08-20

This very competitive Ai in starcraft 2 would be very interesting . I Would like to see which strategies he would use or create

taragnor - 2018-08-21

As far as I know they can't really get AI to do much of anything in Starcraft yet. It's hard enough to get them to mine minerals and construct a base let alone scout and counter an opponent.
