    [HQ] What can you tell us about NPC AI? Specifically, how do they act in combat situations?

    [James Jones] NPC’s will use line of sight pathing but they are also aware of the world geometry. As for combat strategies NPC’s have a lot of tactics and strategies ranging from Flocking tactics to calling for reinforcements. As for details about how AI works I don’t see us ever releasing that information it is critical to maintaining fun in the game experience.
