Is it only me or it is actually because of the new update?
Yup, after three days on a dedicated physical host, I see NPC’s skipping around the screen and walking backwards. One NPC I engaged just stood there for a full minute while I wacked it with a truncheon.
Laggy animals? Like when the rhinos run sideways?
Yes it’s terrible some times confusing you don’t know when they will hit their attack.
