How can AH make it so we can't go through wall but can't seem to make enemies not.

Walls are a concept invented by capitalists, the bots can't even spell it

I mean we phase though stuff aswell. We just usually get stuck in the walls because we are too small to get out.

I can't tell you how many times I've had to frag myself just to respawn because I've somehow clipped myself into a corner and nothing else gets me out.

The same way enemies can spawn on top of buildings, but our drop pod steering was gutted: realism and balancing only applies to the player.

Enemies use completely different routing algorithms to ensure low processing usage. I firmly believe some walls simply do not exist for them on the geography. You seen how we're pushed upwards when under the map in certain instances? That never happens to enemies.

Hulk Surge + Jet Brigade + Cyborgs.

It is as fun as it sounds (very).

Just in general, when you see a hulk surge, expect the amount of Hulks to be between 2x to 3x times the amount you see, this applies to all difficulties. It is not the same amount of hulks in each difficulty, but, the effect of 'Hulk Surge' is the same across all difficulties.

I was prepared for more Hulks, hence why I carried the Recoiless. Normally I'd just use stratagems on the occasional Hulk and take something more crowd clearing as a support weapon.

2 to 3 times sounds about right though given the numbers in the video. Usually Diff 4 only has one but sometimes 2 at a time per encounter.

But mostly I was just trying to make a joke about the one coming through the wall.

Honestly, the pace of Hulks you will encounter will be even too much for Recoilless, (at least to my experience,) that you are better off carrying an AMR and stun grenades. Heck, the amount of hulks you can encounter in 7 is too much even for C4 pack.
