Kite-Zones way too small

[Doktor_Eisen]

I love the game and love to just kill robots - but the super small kite-zones are starting to kill my immersion and feels lame.

The robots bump into an invisible wall that surrounds their little zone and when you find it, you can just stand there, dodge their desperate range attacks and fire arrows at them until they explode ...

They should have made the zone at least 3 times bigger where the monsters chase you when you keep attacking them .. would you loose aggro it would hurt a bit more because you have to walk all the way back - in the current state you just have to walk 10 meters ^^

of course theyre not going to change something in such an old game .. just felt like sharing :D

I was just about to open my own thread about this when I found yours. Are you still playing?

I’m only about 17 hours in, and I find this to be a massive immersion killer. I’m trying to justify it in a way like, well they are robots programmmed to protect a certain geographic location. But I was hoping the game would make you feel more on the edge with these things chasing after you for at least a variable distance.

Everything now is just aggro, run, wait till they turn around, shoot them in the arse. Except for the occasional arena fights, of course.

I mean we can’t expect much from a game that was originally created for consoles in mind. But it IS beautiful, though. 😊

Totally agree with this, it's too easy to cheese them.

[Nwah]

Just don't cheese them then? I agree, the tether is dumb, but you don't have to do it.

It gets to the point where you start having to intentionally playing in a specific way not to trigger that. You don't have to kite for long before you realise you've left their hostile zone.

Definitely a minor nitpick than a real complaint of mine, just to clarify.

Eh it’s to the point where you don’t even need to enter their zone to begin with. You hit them with the long range bow and watch them come running to you for them to suddenly come to a stop.
