I heard a rumour... - Pinko - 07-02-2009

I heard that if you don't directly target an NPC (click on them/whatever), it's actually easier to kill them. Now, I'm not too sure about this, can anyone confirm it...?

I have actually been observing this as long as I play the Game. Even in the campaign, while fighting, they seemed to dodge less when you shoot at them while someone else is targeted. I'm allmost sure of this being the truth, however, if it really is implemented in the game engine, or not, someone else shall have to judge.

This has come up before and I do believe it was concluded it was the case.

Confirmed.
They don't use bots and bats, and they dont evade as much.

The AI doesn't register that they are being targeted, so the AI isn't going to be as aggressive.

That is one of the most supremely simple and useful things that I have heard in a long time

Soo if i don't click on players...they don't use bots? (Joke)

Yes indeed when I first EVER played Freelancer v1.1 it was on a HP 708? 1999 OS windows ME

the game could HARDLY Function lagged even in SP!!!! D: D: D: D: D:

I was so devastated this Freelancer game Looked awesome and its the first game I bought with my own money. So i pushed on, learning of this technique and it help a little bit. I later found a way to get it to run perfectly on the HP pc. But I haven't played the SP story gawd in 5 years or more.

I love this game, if I was the sort to get tattoos I would get one regarding Freelancer... more directly Discovery Freelancer

I think this is about right.

At least, its easier to hit them with motars when you're not targeting them.

This is just retarded. Seriously. Oh well, I guess I now have an easier way to kill all those damn wilde.
