yep. If it really does exist, but it is just bugged, it does not explain the constant spawning of enemies in some locations. A-life never did that broken or not, there's no method to the current system
@@PlasticSorcererTheOriginal it kinda did, A-Life still needs a point of respawn for groups and a cooldown, so what if you spawnkill them and cooldown is bugged? The same thing as happens in STALKER 2.
Wrong A-life is already in the game. Modders have proved it. The files are active and being used. The problem is, bugs are canceling it out. It's almost completely broken which is why it's not working.
Even if this game had A-life, which is current doesn't, this video wouldn't be an example of a bug for it either way. A-Life has to do with distance persistent events. A simple example of how A-life is currently NOT featured in Stalker 2, is being able to walk 30 feet from another patrolling AI, just to have them de-spawn totally once you walk past a threshold.
They despawn and turn into non-rendered simulations. In anomaly there was sliders to adjust the distance, stalker 2 just has a stupidly short distance atm.

How dare you question the integrity of the game! Devs had to write the code whilst being under fire. Poor devs were coding with one hand while throwing grenades with the other so they could finish the game! Give them a slack as you should have pre ordered the ultimate edition purely based on a fact that they released a janky bug infested game 15 years ago! 😂
I have a hard time detecting sarcasm, but in case someone comes here thinking this: No, the devs were safe, they rented an office outside of ukraine. And we are still buying a 60 euro game, so every bit of criticism is valid.
@@Akna6901I'm fine with the critique; bugs and glitches were expected. As with any big game release, I'll wait for patches. However, your dude here is mocking the war and the struggles the dev studio endured because of it. What a petty loser.
@u0000-u2x it's more an orchestration system for generating and tracking positions and simulating encounters during a passive NPC state in the world. The AI kicks in during the active state along with animation, inventory management etc
It's a version of AI that's unique to the STALKER series. It's where NPCs can act independently throughout the game, even when they're off screen. In the original games, it wasn't uncommon to get a quest to kill someone, or to find and talk to someone on another part of the world, only to have them get killed off-screen by another STALKER or mutant. Then the quest would get updated accordingly. In short, A Life makes the game world feel A-LIVE (see what I did there). It makes you feel like a small part in a world that's constantly changing, outside of your actions in the game. A Life is crucial to the STALKER experience. Which is to constantly feel Isolated and out of your depth.
@@amitansurkar1769 it does way more than that, the AI could loot bodies and you'd find their loot on them if you kill them, they could discover artifacts (it would be in their inventory), they could find against other stalker factions, against mutants, and they could update various situations via the PDA (it would appear directly on the left of your screen, sometimes casual conversations, sometimes they'd report enemies, fightings, artifact discoveries and many things), it could do this "offscreen" meaning when the AI isn't within render distance and is "despawned" from the physical world, Stalker 2 has none of that. and also the AI was pretty strong in combat but not unfairly, they would crouch and slowly crawl toward enemies that didn't see them and attack by surprise (and do this to the player too) and they'd use the terrain to hide behind cover or foliage, flank, work as a squad, supress you, grenade your last known position (because the AI doesn't know your exact position in older stalkers, unlike the new game, they fire towards where they think you are just like in real life), you could even desengage from combat, hide elsewhere and eventually they'd grenade your last known position, supress it and move in then try to find you again. also A-life had persistence, like if a squad kills another squad off-screen, you can eventually find their bodies and possibly loot if you stumble upon their corpses (same for mutants) although generally the corpses would be looted, so most items would go into the inventory of the one you killed them (except if mutants killed them), and random stalkers that "found" those corpses could also loot them, even in front of you. really good AI but unfortunately the new game doesn't have that because the devs lied about A-Life 2.0, which isn't A-life at all, it's just a basic spawner like any Ubisoft game.
nice nitpicking, literally 95% of the game is awesome, ive never had AI bug out like this and even so they arent the first game to have bugs/issues. Game is a 10/10 slava ukraini.

That not A-Life thats just AI. A-Life badically dosrnt exits either but just saying two diff things
don't be pedantic. a-life is the branding they gave to part of their AI system. AI as a whole is busted in the game...

@Joe._Biden good one biden , now answer the question

a bug???? in a video game???? unacceptable, pure garbage
its a 60 euro game. Yeah sure, devs may fix it, but for that time its better to not buy the game. Every bit of criticism is valid criticism.
