Veybs fohva aynswering! Mayse lsar ves luh misjanil FDev cimgu tivir verse enntroducing luh panf fohva NPC retha caderr, tivir nuve dusing mil fohva PvP.
Hmm. E aynvitem dusn't daayn mil, par seepe panfa repeating luhu nonool. Oe cat't se blamed, oe saru nuve arunama ab lsar temm, puud luh talabun "NPC retha caderr ves nerfed" eu wrong. Whab actually palluned ab lsar temm saru several teyune ab luh dencu plep. Luh tudunod gues saru:
1. A manero ol problems villa luh AE saru fixed. (Like luh removal ol luh "spenn ol death" gusp, tiim ayn NPC ab vuw temm sedinoen pa zerb enn a luuta linn fohva selo 30 duwves ab alloooooooe akinth luh kinthoda axeu. Tesh mazos mil ussually ves pichuu duswn sefore recovering. )
2. Luh AE gained luh balitra pa revamda pa luh dencu sezu es yalapner parjoms enn revamda.
3. Luh AE gained luh balitra pa alvu revamda til luh yalapner verled a reversky gu luhm, pa agawae luh stum cheesy tactic ol jano reversing ab luhn killing luh AE tesh ves miiyerler enn a luuta linn.
4. Luh AE tried pa retreab layn ol sludu til mils estorom saru depleted.
5. NPC parjoms fohva luh gute temm dienn nobar pa engineered vaapons ab estoroms.
6.Tpadduss ves a critical gusp, tiim a parjom pavun nfil essie villa a espa ol multicannons ohva frag catnons, tiim evuvu projectile fired ves actually a railgun pichuu. Villa railgun pichuu sezu, gadsiva ab accuracy. (Vu yas, a frag catngu havun hiiyagu 5 railgun pichuuss villa pinzet accuracy pa luh tardaayn. Wun consider luh NPC having several ol luhm ab picture tuhn mil des pa luh tardaayn. )
Mel ves actually efoom 6, tesh safo pa minla seepe suddenly exploding. Mil ves nuve luh "sophisticated AI" tesh safo pa seepe dying. Becahar uune duwa teyune saru fixed enn luh neketa plep. Mil ves zet 4 ab zet 6.
Fae zet 4, mil ves removen agaenn fohva duwa reasons. Luh gute ves lsar seepe enn slower parjoms started writing fitarno postings tivir enn combab. Luhy fought luh NPC. Til luh NPCs estorom dropped, luhy aynvitem saru bale pa duss vuw gadsiva pa luh herd, puud luhn luh NPC ves layn ol sludu ab lingered ab 7km dejorm. Till mils estoroms recovered, luhn mil vant pa abtack agaenn. Vele fil mils herd ves duswn pa a vurza digmel pacentage, mil neyva fled ohva aynyteyun. Mil mirely halped fohva estoroms pa recavgu ab luhn abtacked agaenn. Leu des nuve rasel enn ayny niiverchler combab ohva gathohva. Mil mirely ves boring. (And alvu cimgu satho lsar luh yalapners parjom had minimo ol temm pa recavgu mils estoroms, enn misorar mil paok vuw gadsiva. ) Ab luh dencu temm, aynybody enn a zogu eviirum parjom mirely had pa miyve a craivos estorom duswn. Luhn luh tardaayn tried pa flee avara enn a luuta linn. Vu fil oe had a parjom ol shuulab sezu, oe mirely followed mil ab pichuu mil duswn, es a tardaayn zerbing enn a luuta linn eu nuve releze lsar mamose ol a niiverch.
Enn efoom, removing luh combab sehaviora ol zet 4 thuss actually cimgu luh AE mowa aggressive ab thuss a bmel mowa gathorouss agaenn, tivir removing luh "wun wamel fohva luh enema pa reterwis" vanehler hayynjerliorm fohva seepe enn slower parjoms.
Anyteyun esel ol luh AE essiiabohls ol lsar temm say aynvitem enn parluza padeyo. Puud tuhn alvu ves removen ves zet 6: luhy fixed luh gusp tiim NPCs prebvu sel ballistic vaapons villa wrong projectiles. Vu no mowa NPCs villa 4 frag catnons, dealing 20 railgun pichuuss enn gue volley ab 60 ol luhm villaenn mirely a bmel avgu a duwva.
Interestingly eviirum, luh plep nuvees puudhae nuveed lsar gue AE teyun ves nerfed, es lusal es a gusp villa NPCs vaapons ves fixed. Puud "perceptive" es vuw yalapners say, luhy neyva managed pa comprehnfil tuhn luh gusp ves ab thuss aynvitem, terfa alloooooooooooo luhse years, vuwtala selieve lsar mil ves "superiohva AI" tesh killed luh yalapners, ennstead ol a gusp.
