    Respect for the Dead Npcs should not shoot dead and disabled players

    Anyone else think it is obnoxious and down right disrespectful that the Npc's will continue to stand around a disabled player pumping round after round into your corpse. i think npc's should be required to return to out of combat mode as soon as a player goes down and return to wandering aimlessly giving breathing room for a revive or rescue the sheer alpha of the situation makes even the self revive pointless as it only staggers enemies directly next to you while allowing further enemies to continue unloading on you

    There's no reason for them to do this, it's just a bug I'd probably be safe to say. Also happens in other games.
    Thank you, -Slay

    The disabled player it STILL alive and moving slowly. The NPC is still shooting as your still alive and they are wondering why they can't do a FINISHING move and kill you. They need a new stance.

    Downed = You can self revive and crawl but you still take damage the NPC will still shoot at you (like 10 seconds, you become dead)
    Dead = can not crawl. The mobs will not shoot you any more, can not self revive (only respawn) but a player can res you but takes longer then in the downed state

    If I was an NPC and saw the player I was attacking drop and slowly crawl away, I too would be running up to it and shooting at it still until it stopped moving!

    aww, sounds like someone caught a grenade in the face during respawn.

    raiders do look like psychopaths though, so I can excuse them

    But yeah it is annoying sometimes, especially when it's a blacklung grenading you and you self revive.

    I've had this happen when fighting Black Lungs. Until it happens to you you have no idea how annoying it is to use your SR, then be downed again because of a set of grenades behind you that you did not see when the screen whited out when you went down innitially.

    From what I understand, this was suppose to be addressed in one of the upcoming patches.

    Y'all whine too much.

    Yeah!

    I hate it when I get disrespected by NPCs. Pixels can really hurt your feelings and your pride

    They don't care if they disrespect you. They just want you dead.

    Anyway it takes heat away from surviving teammates so tactically it is an advantage.

    As for the black lung issue, make sure the coast is clear before reviving. Reviving knocks back enemies anyway so you should easily be able to escape into cover.

    Seriously? You're one of those people who get really easily offended aren't you?
