What is happening with the friendly npc's in this game? They are becoming worse and worse as each day passes. The most recent run-in with these bullet magnets came when I was attempting to take the New Venice control point in West End. In the video, which I apologize for the just under 5-minute length, shows me going to help the friendly npc's break whatever contact they were in so they could help distract the Outcasts. When I arrived at their location, they were NOT in conflict and were just facing a wall as if children had been in trouble and told to face the wall and not talk. So, I went to collect the resource convoy that I had bumped into and then I engaged the CP to see how long it would take my npc's to un-stupid themselves. Well, that is when the game crashed............ AGAIN.

Now this is NOT the first time my npc's have acted in this manner. I can recall at least three other times in the past two months where they stop at a building that surrounds or connects to the CP. The pathing is trying to tell them what we know in real life... Which is 'The shortest route to any place is a direct path' or something like that. We may all have different ways of saying the same thing. Also, the friendly commander or whatever he/she is has on a number of occasions will not rez me if I go down. They will jump down away from me or just keep fighting. Even had one walk away when I crawled right next to him. So the commands are all over the place. You will have some come rez while right next to an enemy and others will run away as if it were personal. Hahaa

Perhaps this footage will also show the accuracy achieved by enemy npc's while in cover. You know the US military adopted three round burst into their M16A2 battle rifles largely in part to the Vietnam "Spray and Pray" that was going on. Not to mention that if a firearm is not properly shouldered, even the best marksmen in the world have a hard time controlling a three round burst. Yet these npc's can shoot the wings off of a fly while shooting from cover.

You just won't believe what happened......... AGAIN. LOL

Heya @chacachaca13, sorry to see that the friendly NPCs aren't acting properly for you!

If you've not already, I'd recommend running through the steps listed here to see if they help at all. If not, can you please see if the issue persists when you join someone else's session, when someone joins your session, and when you create a new Agent?
