Title: New NPC A.I. Coming?
Post by: Venkman on December 14, 2006, 05:56:33 AM
A couple of different feeds picked up reports yesterday that Turbine is going to be working with Kynapse and their A.I. Engine, for both LoTRO and DDO.

One such report (http://mmorpg.qj.net/LOTRO-and-DDO-to-use-Kynapse-for-Angmar-and-Stormreach/pg/49/aid/76139)

Is this going to be something noticably different from what we've got right now? Like, will pets have smarter pathing or something?

They tested a new mob ai system a few patches ago, I think they pulled it after a while, not sure if it's back in yet or not.
