One of the best games ever made IMO. I bought it at release and still regularly get sucked back into it.

    Haha I wanted to buy it at release, but I usually wait a bit for things to iron out. Heard about the bugs, glitches and "lack of content" so decided to wait a few months...which somehow turned into years LMAO

    Yeah, performance was pretty bad at first, especially on hardware that just barely met the minimum requirements - low frame rate and lots of crashes. The gameplay balance wasn't great either - there was one melee build that was particularly OP. The game is a lot more polished now than it was then.

    If you don’t mind, does it now match the advertising? I heard there were trailers with advanced features that were not in the actual game on release.

    I don't recall what all was advertised. Which features are you curious about?

    Darn, I was just hoping you would. I didn’t see any of the trailers or anything but heard that was the case. Stuff about NPC AI? Did cops used to just spawn in the vicinity of the player?

    Honestly I was never really curious about the game until this thread, but I don’t have the requisite foundation to know what needed to be fixed. I’m sure I’ll find out eventually

    Yeah, at release cops would spawn in on top of you. One of the first patches changed that - now they spawn in far enough away that you don't see it happening. They're stronger now too. It used to be the case that an optimized character could win a stand up fight against MaxTac (the highest level cops sent after you when you max out your wanted level). Not so much anymore. You can still win a running attritional battle against them, but you can't just stand there and gun them all down before they end you.
