AI Diamond Security Guard seems really stupid in other games they are more cautious if someone is coming up to them with a weapon such as a spiked baseball bat and they should program the ai to be more preventative and ask you to holster your weapon on your approach and AI security guard should raise his weapon and match your threat or something at least as the player gets within a metre and he shows no reaction come on, this games seems to not of improved over fallout 3 at all in ai mechanics.

And how can we be sure he wasn't just about to do that, ask the player to holster there,weapon? Clip feels a bit to short to jump to conclusions.

Yeah I caught that also. At least in Skyrim they will say that "A guard could get nervous..." line, and maybe this guard did say something, but didn't act nearly soon enough. Or it could be that the PC was in a favorable position with them before the smack down. Hard to say since the vid was made just to show the perk, so hopefully in game there is more NPC reaction.

The footage was heavily edited...

It was literally a seconds long clip. Come on.

True ill give the game the benefit of the doubt

Come on. The clip was like a second. You should assume at least the same level of AI as in Skyrim.

A SECOND LONG CLIP HAS BEEN RELEASED!?!!? AND WHERE WAS I??!??

Not following beths YouTube channel?

^this

There was nothing about the clip that suggests the guard DIDN'T ask the SS to holster his weapon at ome point before the attack.

Everybody agro'd to the kill too

Call me precognitive/clairvoyant, but I'm pretty positive there won't be an improvement in this regard. I'll eat my words if Bethesda actually bothered to add in npc defensive animations and made them reactive besides warning you to put your weapon away such as dodge or block with a weapon or forearm, but I don't see it happening. I also found it funny how slowly people got up from their seats after witnessing a gory, cold-blooded murder right before their eyes.

You have to realise they made the videos to show you what they shown us its all scripted just to show us the point thats all.

Well everybody being the handful people we saw on screen, all of them realistically able to see that you killed the guard.

I'm sure it'll be an improvement over F3. Meh

Poor AI? All you need is to be in good favor with that settlement walk up to a guard and rock him to replicate exactly this. Criticizing a second long clip without any pretense is lame as [censored]

COME ON, lol it was a edit video to show a perk -.- u guys.......

Well it is the Skyrim's engine, i do not expect any miracles.

If you watched the video carefully you will notice that the guard was looking to his left and his head came off by the time he turned towards the player.

The NPC's were friendly. It would svck if people would flip out just because you're holding a weapon. It's the wastes, everyone's got a weapon, and it's usually in their hands.

This too

Plus a baseball bat isn't exactly the most threatening weapon either and I highly doubt that Npcs would know that you have the ability to explode heads with just a swing. The guard had a decent helmet on too.

Yeah, let's not buy the game. It's broken.

lol. This is why I don't take peoples opinions 100% seriously... When you can damn an entire games ai, by the 1-2 seconds of footage... heavily edited footage I might add.... you start to make me chuckle a bit.

0/10 POS game will not buy that 11 seconds of video showed what a flawed mess this game will be....................

also like point out beth loves to use ****loads of dev cheats in their videos (see the power armour footage in MS brief) so this should taken with grain of salt
