Seen when throwing? lol

[acuraice]

how am i supposed to create a diversion by throwing stones at metal things if when i go to throw the stones, the enemies see me??? also needs 21:9 fix, lazy developers. i dont want o use reg edit and tweak t bc i heard it stretches the image and creates distortion. it needs true widescreen support

There is a huge difference between throwing rocks with your hand and shooting them away with your sling.

I can say I never experienced this. If you are truly throwing things and not using your sling then I am not sure what the problem is. I have thrown items right across an enemies face and so long as I was behind cover I was fine. Unfortunately all I can say is make sure you are throwing and not shooting, and make sure you are behind cover.

You won't be seen if you throw with your hand, it's considered a low profile action. If you shoot with your sling, that's more high profile and you will be spotted if they're looking your way.

Use the Crtl (Control button on the Keyboard) after you "Select" which type of Object you wish to throw as a distraction(YEP...kinda "LOBS" it like a Grenade from Cover, wont work on Enemies only good for Distracting

thank you Jeffo083! u get it! i have never ever played a stealth game, even casual like this one where when you try to divert enemies with rocks or whatever, the enemy starts to see you throwing it. it must be a bug/glitch.

I remember years back another rpg(some kind of secret agent?) a "Snake" Character? You used this Stealth Throw to make Guards look the other way and sneak by em too?

virtually all stealth games have a rock throwing mechanic, but they also set it so you throw a rock without ever being seen doing so. with this game its not the case

Use the "CRTL" (bottom left key on Keyboard, 'Control').....thats the "Hand Throw" button.(YEAH I get it, your thinking of a type of Grenade toss, but the dev's didnt use that action...did they?)

Unsub...outa here...seeya

u wont be missed matt! i get the control scheme guys, im just saying i dont like the way i am about to get spotted when im about to throw rocks regardless of what button i use. they should be saying anything unless im sticking out like a sore thumb...

I came here looking for this. I'm throwing the rock or pot with my hand, not sling, and even though the enemy doesn't see me when I throw the item, they always say that they think the noise came from where I was crouched throwing instead of where the noise originated from when it hit a surface (rock hitting armor pile or pot hitting ground).

It's like it worked sometimes earlier in the game, but is now completely broken later. I think there's something wrong with the game.

I have had that happen a time or two, and i can usually throw another stone at the metal even as they're walking towards me and distract them again

not sure why it happens, but if you throw a second stone they'll go away. works for me at least

[umeng2002]

Crouch in the grass or behind something when you throw. Don't throw standing up.

I had the same problem as the OP.
The problem: Left mouse was for dodge and throwing. When I tried to throw silently, the character dodged.
So I moved doding to another key and silent throwing now worked.
