NPC line of sight

Just needed to rant a bit. NPCs do not care about line of sight. The number of times I've run around corners to tactically force mobs into piling up, only to get shot THROUGH the wall, is just unreal. Please stop, it's really dumb.

    Oh god, so much this. Around the corner, behind the wall, 1 km away. The part of game that decides if you should be hit or not with almost no corellation to what you actually see is so annoying.

    Yeah, it happens. Though the NPCs DO in fact move to re-establish LoS... a lot of attacks get launched while they still have LoS, and then travel through obstacles when you move to break LoS... and hit you anyhow.

    And occasionally the LoS calculations seem completely broken and the NPCs just keep shooting through cover...

    But that aside, more often then not LoS actually does indeed work for NPCs, and you can dash around a corner or through a doorway to make them pile up.

    As the space-shost says...

    Well, that's usually what I plan to do, only for the NPC to stay behind the obstacle or around corner and keep shooting me. Thanks game.
