S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 Players Test Enemy AI and Stealth After Patch 1.3

Players have already tested Patch 1.3 for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, which was released this week. In particular, gamers tested enemy AI and stealth capabilities.

A new video appeared on the ZoneSlug YouTube channel, which demonstrated improvements in the behavior of enemies and NPCs after the update. For example, when fired from a sniper rifle, enemies begin to run towards the player or panic. When killing one of their comrades, stalkers and bandits search the area more thoroughly, and when trying to sneak up on them, they can hear Skif's footsteps. The most interesting thing is that NPCs now follow the bolts that the player throws throughout the map. Patch 1.3 also corrected the behavior of some mutants.

Recall that Patch 1.3 was released on March 18 and brought more than 1,200 fixes and changes to the game, including new death screens. The developers also released another trailer, promising other improvements.
