Can we please, once and for all, settle this problem? One of the most annoying issues with this game:
AI shooting you through foliage.
Some months ago, the devs (only partially) patched this big concern that more or less everyone has.
From what I heard and can tell, this issue seems to be related to game assets. Some foliage AI won’t shoot through, and some they keep eliminating you, even though they shouldn’t see you.
My experience is that bushes (mainly those in Bulge) have been fixed. The biggest problems seem to be trees in general.
In this thread, I want everyone to report/showcase problematic assets to help devs finally iron out this problem.

It’s a really simple fix in all honesty. All that needs to be done is all foliage should be treated as an opaque object, much like walls are. I’m sure it should be easy enough for the devs, since if they are organised enough, all foliage should be foldered in one location.

Should be easy, but we’re talking about a group of people that can’t create a bot more intelligent then a mentally challenged three year old.

How is it, an Indie game with like 2 developers from Easy Red can pump out content faster and make more comprehensive AI than Gaijin, one of the biggest F2P game developers.

Apparently not since we have had this issue for 6 years.
So my intention with this topic is to create a thread that could help the devs/helpers identify broken assets in this matter.

Why don’t you just shoot to from where the traces are coming from? Especially if you have full auto SF rifle. I really don’t understand that.
Plus from my experience, it’s pretty rare for AI to be aggroed at such distance in the first place.
I am not saying AI shooting from foliage is not an issue. Of course it would be better if fixed.
I just particularly never had any hard feelings about it. And never had any problems to deal with it.
