Read moreI appreciate this honest and thoughtful reply, and I actually completely agree with your point that maybe the video took a perhaps, inappropriate turn at the end. I have no opinion on any perceived "shadiness", my issues are strictly with the gameplay.
I also get that fixing these problems is no small feat and that the AI goes hand-in-hand with other complex mechanics like animation. Like the video says though, this game IS the AI, and if that part of the game is lacking then no amount of polish in other areas will make up for that.
I really enjoyed this game when I first started playing it 8 months ago. I still do sometimes. But it does seem like the issues presented in the video have been a bit of an afterthought to the developers. I think fixing these issues should be the number one priority right now, even at the expense of other additions to the game (new levels, environmental storytelling, etc).
When I first started playing this game it was with a few ...
Much appreciated response. I definitely want to make it clear that fixing these issues and creating a much more realistic experience is priority number one for us. But that’s just for programming, as you could expect we have level artists and other on the team, and they need to keep working too!
So these things can happen in tandem as even if we had no staff BUT ai programmers and relevant faculty, these things would still take around the same amount of time. Either way, we’re on the case. Not just for suspects but for SWAT and civilians, too.
Read moreI believe this has happened to me as well. But it is often hard to tell if I am actually impacting their head but I do believe I have hit them in the head and they would continue on fighting. Considering the other poster's upvotes I am assuming this seems to happen a bit.
I will see if I have recorded footage myself.
I have gameplay videos uploaded but don't think they would have any surviving headshot parts.

I have other videos not uploaded so I will check those ones when I get the time.
What you can see in my video...
Thanks. I’ll have a look thru your vids. It really should never happen, especially since it’s so easy to test. If it exists it could be legacy headgear on some old ai roster or even lag possibly, so gotta see.
Oh my god. I do but I didn't even think to send it to you guys I usually just delete the ones and move on but I'll see if I can dig up the recordings and send them.
Definitely do(rag)!
Excellent video that perfectly summarizes just how game breaking the AI is. I do hope these issues are addressed by VOID in a meaningful way. “Tweaks” here and there aren’t going to cut it, the AI needs a serious overhaul. I think this game has a ton of potential, but if these fundamental problems aren’t addressed, I don’t see myself playing much longer. Unfortunately I can’t recommend the game to others in its current state.
We are definitely working to address issues like the ones listed in the video as well as other ones. The content posted is very comprehensive and works well to highlight issues with our ai, but I’m not sure why it points towards our hiring a programmer (and speculation about firing one??) at the end, and a steam estimate figure (which anyone could do online, it’s not accurate) posted by one of our moderators, who doesn’t have access to steam sales figures. I feel as if the video goes from a very thoughtful critique to something else at that stage, but I understand. You guys work with what you’re given, and if you’re not given information then you will draw your own conclusions.
We’re not trying to be shady by any stretch of the imagination, and we love our game. We spend every day working on it and planning out ways of making it better, or things that just flat out need to be reworked. There’s stuff in there i wouldn’t have ever dreamed of having (the dynamic cover system ...
Read moreThis should be fixed now. Sorry about that!
We are making improvements to how we manage updates, to reduce the time (and data) spent updating. This was an unfortunate issue where we didn’t clean up old pak files during our staging build.
We will be adding a step in our release validation to ensure the shipping size is acceptable to ensure this doesn’t happen again.
Awesome vid!
I hope AI gets smarter and less super human in the future and behave like the character they are e.g. meth addict vs. street thug vs. security ex military as a classification of different skill levels for suspects.
Definitely planned!
It wouldn't be so bad if they actually went down when i shot them in the head. THEY AREN'T EVEN WEARING HEAD GEAR! THIS IS SOME BS!!
You record a lot so do you have footage of this happening? Should be impossible.
It feels like there is a some post processing effect overlay over the entire screen. Makes everything look weird and the flashlight doesn't look right
It’s a post process bounds that you’re walking into. I hate it too, rest assured it’ll be fixed with the new hotel (yeah that’s right!)
I’m looking into this today. It’s certainly not intended !
Are video card drivers the same as graphics card drivers? If so I should have the latest installed
Edit: I am using GeForce RTX 2060 so if there is a an updated version lmk because I cannot find an updated version for the life of me
Download geforce experience from nvidia. That manages the drivers and game settings, it will be able to assist with the drivers.
And yep video card and graphics cards are the same :)
Thank you, I really do appreciate the help despite you probably having better things to do.
Not a problem. I had a quick look and it seems to be a GPU crash. Can you confirm you’ve got the latest video card drivers?
It crashed again, another Exception Access Violation. This time the reading address was 0x0000000000002200 instead of something like 0x0ffffffffffff
Edit: if you meant what I put in for the crash description I put in "Attempted to kick open door, it crashed on the first kick."
Ok thanks for the update. I’ll have a look and see what I can find out.
That looks like an out of memory error. How much ram free do you hav before launching ? (You can check in task manager).
If you put a particular reported message text and let me know it, I’ll have a look into it and see what I can find out
Yeah this is good. We already have plenty of plans. I mean, we just dropped a bunch of major AI changes, i feel like it should be obvious we’re not leaving them out to dry. These things just take a lot of time, but overall good thoughts and our goal is to have a very convincing AI by full release.
Im hoping the syringe isnt a health restore item, more of pain relief. Like you move at normal speed, dont have blurred vision after taking damage ect.
It was cut as a heal anim just like the multi tool pulling out a bullet was. Wont be returning at least not for gameplay.
