      Darn, I was just hoping you would. I didn’t see any of the trailers or anything but heard that was the case. Stuff about NPC AI? Did cops used to just spawn in the vicinity of the player?

      Honestly I was never really curious about the game until this thread, but I don’t have the requisite foundation to know what needed to be fixed. I’m sure I’ll find out eventually

        Yeah, at release cops would spawn in on top of you. One of the first patches changed that - now they spawn in far enough away that you don’t see it happening. They’re stronger now too. It used to be the case that an optimized character could win a stand up fight against MaxTac (the highest level cops sent after you when you max out your wanted level). Not so much anymore. You can still win a running attritional battle against them, but you can’t just stand there and gun them all down before they end you.
