Hello!
Edit: thanks for the replies!
In Mass Effect, when a geth dies it is uploaded to other geth units in the area. The remaining physical geth shells use the information from the "dead" geth, and as a result they develop more advanced strategies. At least that's what the lore says. I'm a little disappointed the geth in game don't actually do this. Is it possible for a developer to program this intelligence upscaling into a game? Is there a different game where this happens?
You might be thinking, "well, how advanced do you want them to be?". Alright...so I encounter a geth platoon and whittle down their numbers to the last 2 or 3 units. I want them to utilize their space, weapons, and abilities so efficiently that it's just not possible to improve on their tactics. Cranking the difficulty doesn't do that, unfortunately.
