No, AI was good for Quake III and UT. It's just been improved since then. It in no way shape or form sucked ASS. But I have faith in Raven to make the game awesome. From CyClones to Jedi Academy, almost everything they've done is great. I found some sketch art and extremely high poly models for Quake IV on my computer (I've had them for a while) and they look awesome.
