martingee Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 You're literally posting about NPC's above a thread discussing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumdood Posted February 6, 2018 Author Share Posted February 6, 2018 Ya, I guess so. That thread is more about complaining that NPCs aren't in the game yet. I'm happy with the game's development so far, and will gladly wait for NPCs. I'd just like to hear if there is any progress toward their development.

Damien Darkside Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Cars Animation NPCs Cars were the big mechanic that needed to be added They aren't going to put NPCs in without adding in the new animation system The NPCs are the final large piece. Dude this game is gonna be finished in 2022 so hold onto your knickers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoogieMan Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 There is literally a sticky that has NPC in the title. https://theindiestone.com/forums/index.php?/topic/19464-save-yourself-a-post-announcements-info-npcs-etc/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumdood Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 I know about all of that, I've been keeping tabs on this game for a while. I'm not asking when NPCs are going to be put into the game, I know it will be a while. I'm just looking for an update on its progress since there hasn't been one in years. It was a really interesting system they had planned, I'm just worried they've scrapped it due to the complexity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Darkside Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 They have clearly stated that they will work on NPCs after the cars are finished and when animations are in. You know what I find funny? CoD WW2 was developed by a massive team of professionals on an engine that was already made and refined, with tools and mechanics that were already established over three years. The game isn't finished, was a disaster on launch, there are still features missing from the game and there are multiple bugs and issues that aren't fixed or being looked at. That is a gaming company that has made games for a hell of a long time failing at meeting deadlines and delivering a finished product over three years of development time. Then I look at The Indie Stone, a bunch of people who, although a few have worked for companies, have little to no experience making a complex game game from absolute scratch (as far as I have seen) and are trying to pull together multiplayer as well as single player with mod support. I am not surprised it is taking this long to develop. Also I think this game cost me 10 bucks. I've eaten things more expensive than this game over 10 minutes.
