I like all the updates and fixes etc. But as you I have to agree that im am really surprised how particularly buggy the NPC/AI can be in this game.
The server I play on, on a good day have 10-15 people on it and probably half of them are building (PVE), yet almost all combats have issues. Either some of the NPCs don’t react, before you hit them or your followers won’t do anything.
These are just some stuff happening either in combat or out of combat. My giant for some reason decide to walk backwards half the time, typically after he have been in combat.
a scorpion flying through the air backwards.
Dead enemies T-posing (stand up after being dead)
Enemy returning to it original starting point, not reacting to getting attack on its way back.
I also noticed that my character float around as if on ice, sometimes it help to jump or use a bandage.
And the list goes on.
I just don’t get how it can be this buggy, when there are so few people on the server, because I also tried joining a server where I was the only one and my character was floating around constantly and the ping was less than 35ms.
To me it seems that there is something seriously wrong with the AI system and need a fix or an overhaul. And lets be honest the majority of enemies are just standing there doing nothing at all until you agro them and then they bug. It can’t be that difficult to fix, when the only action they can take is attack player or follower.
