One thing: Albion will not shoot on sight even if you have more than 2 wanted level, so if you manage to knockout a lot of cops you can reach maximum wanted level without make them draw a weapon. When that happens, its funny to see lots of drones start swarming around you without attacking just standing there for spectate the brawl.
isnt that very none american ? i mean our police doesnt open fire for no reason . in fact 1 bullet fired might equal a whole book of repports and media noises . its so rare . recently an officer in france opened fie on a car that didnt want to stop and killed peoples inside and that caused lot of outrage because you DO NOT open fire unless the person is armed and not with any weapon . even a criminal with a knife will be only tased , police wont use lethal force against him until he put life of others in danger , but if he is just holding it then the police will find different ways to neutralize him
Both Albion and Metropolice share the same rules of engagement in Legion: Normal Difficulty Visual = Ignore/Harass Resistance Mode Visual = Less-lethal Violence Fighting Unarmed = Less-lethal Violence Fighting Armed with Close-range Weapon = Less-lethal Violence Brandishing Firearm (Lethal or Not) = Lethal Violence Occupying Vehicle (while pursued) = Lethal Violence Unreachable Spot = Lethal Violence Resisting too long (even if non-lethally) = Lethal Violence If the enforcer is unarmed and their rules of engagement say to use lethal violence, they will likely flee instead.
they use the assassin's creed system where officers have a random chance to just open fire though the only way to stop them from shooting and activating lethal force is by cloaking or hacking them and running away once you see the gun icon
Yea same. They always tried to find some dumb excuses on why they were still operating. Including Clan Kelly etc. Pretty laughable. I believe a car gets renamed but I’m not sure.
@@Kodiak_Brown_Bear well idk if you know it but british police doesnt carry guns . so obviously if you carry a gun in front of them they will run because thats beyond their capabilities , even those who do have pistols they often hold only a tiny revolver and not a 9mm . so yeah the british police is not what you would use to fight a "terrorist group" but a paramilitary unite instead . btw a city on state of high alert often downgrade the role of police in favour of military ones . the police becomes more of an auxiliary crowd control unite
God damn, this must be some of the most aggressive AI I've ever seen in any open world game. That high wanted level chase was beyond brutal, plus taking into consideration that they throw so much shit at you all at once. They really mean business, which I guess is kinda cool as well
I mean they're using high tech stuff so it makes sense that they're tuff to fight against especially when you get further into the story and they start using invisibility cloaks and special drones to take you down plus with the new updates that came out they've been getting harder cause now they have new gadgets they can use and we can use now
@@rogueraccoon1840 Yeah, that all sounds pretty cool. I'm just wondering if it's going too far.

Great video man. I will say one thing though: Albion is supposed to be aggressive. I've seen plenty of people complaining that they start fighting you for minor crimes but that's how it's supposed to be. Albion is a ruthless PMC.
I've noticed the cheating Albion back when it was released. But it seems, at least for me, that it was improved and now they can't find you as easily. Previously they would always know where you went exactly, now they are actually looking around, having some patrol ride right pass me when I hid in ally. Before they would just stop and then search for me by foot if I did that.
Honestly the downgrade in behavior compared to the previous entry is just very noticeable, and its a shame, it gives you an idea why it hasn't been very well recieve in comparison. Nice video as always.
The fact that enemies don't shoot first (6:36) is a massive upgrade in behavior compared to previous games. It makes Legion a fantastic stealth game you can play stealthy non-lethally without raising alerts, because when someone spots you you can beat him in H2H combat and stay in stealth. While in previous games bullets immediately start flying and the game turns into cover based shooter.
The game wasn't well received because of two reasons: first, it had game breaking bugs on release, second, people are close minded and too focused on what Legion didn't have compared to the previous games instead of focusing on what it brings to the table. For example, I switched to one of my operatives, she is NMA fighter was in the park having a meal with her aunt, behind me people were fighting with an Albion soldier, because I already liberated the borough. I switched to a hacker I need to complete the nearest mission, was looking around couldn't find my NMA fighter, because she's getting in the fight with that soldier along with other people. When they beat the hell out of him she went back to her aunt, sat near her on the lawn and continued her meal. Legion is full of emergent stories like this one impossible in WD2 and WD1, but apparently a media player you could listen to while walking or car on demand app are way more important than this.
@@KenTWOu Hahahahahahaha, true on that last one. Even if I don't find the setting of WD that interesting and would rather have a Driver game a la Parallel lines. Wheelman, working his way to the top. Classic. But, different folks I guess.
Awesome police Behavior Analysis in watch dogs legion keep up the great work, can u do Bully Scholarship edition next for busted analysis that will be great.
I played this game earlier this year and I have to say, it was pretty enjoyable. The story was pretty meh though, but it had some fun gameplay but honestly I still believe Watch Dogs 2 has the best overall open world structure and gameplay. WDL is still really good despite my issues.
The A.I in this game are downright boring. In WD 2, you could be randomly driving, and suddenly see a gang war open, or active pursuits. Also ambulances actually have medics that get OUT of their vehicles and walk up to injured A.I and put them in the vehicles. WD legion, they downgraded alot of the intelligence for that "play as anyone" gimmick just so you wouldn't notice.
@@contra7631 So should they just have the MPS and CoLP as the main police force? I think that if they didn't have the play as anyone thing it might be better but I reckon the police would either be uninteresting or disliked by people.
Too bad that if you recruit an Albion officer and play as them, every other Albion officer will get suspicious of you if you are in an Albion only zone.
U know what its just funny when an albion contractor is standing in front/behind the armored truck, then i just hack it to move and cause all havoc with the truck until im wanted then i drive off while whistling.
Finally! Better than Watch Dogs (They can shoot hostlie NPC's) Worse than Watch dogs 2 (They can't call backup when they are under attack ~ Hostlie NPC)
What do you mean ? Thay always call backup, you always end up with 10 units and more on yo ass because they keep calling for reinforcements. Thats why its hard to get rid of them ( plus with the drones 😤 )
@@1459Redhood It's obvious why they did that, they wanted you to see how NPCs will fight Albion soldiers in H2H combat on streets after you liberate a borough. It's a very uplifting sight to behold, which wouldn't be possible if Albion soldiers and cops could call backup while under attack by NPCs.
Destroy all humans 2, depsite being a great game, doesn't really need a police AI video. If citizens witness you, alert goes up. keep noticing you and it goes up again. Police cars spawn. If hidden alert goes away and police cars no longer spawn. If you don't hide and you cause havoc/keep getting noticed, army spawns. It's that simple.

So the frontline british officer is just a civilian with a stick and radio. Wow that makes me feel so safe, im sure if im getting stabbed or robbed they will throw their magic policing by consent words and save me lol
I mean Albion practically replace the Metropolitan Police, so it makes sense for the police to lack any weapons since it's all being taken over by the funny private military.
Im never really a fan of these games that have elite enemies in bases and only bases but they never get sent at You in a regular pursuit Like in just cause games they ussualy send regular grunts, and than the elite boys with more health and better guns and sometimes mixed in a shotgun dude or MG dude Or in just cause 1 literaly only the more elite dudes and just cause 2 mixem up because theres only 2 types of enemies Excluding the colonel and his guards
watch dogs legion has the best Police structure ive seen in an open world game. Its very sophisticated. But I hate the way they dumbed down the AI compared to WD2. If they didnt then I would consider WDL AI way more impressive.
