Blind AI

[V-Man339]

Mentioned it in the zombie thread, but I can't be the only one who wants to see a level where I have to sneak past a blind old hermit with hyper-sensitive hearing to grab an optional objective.

 

Seriously, drop some hints that he may not be great at seeing by having some guards in the area joke about him, have some braille on some walls in his house, that sort of bit. You could even use an alternate set of animations to show he's counting his steps.

Have him auto-detect you based on smell via proximity.

 

An eccentric request, but one I'd love to see done right, as the closets I've seen to this is Hitman Absolution's level where they didn't actually state the suit-maker was blind, merely implying it.

 

It's a terrific part in an otherwise bland game, wasted on a level that could've been a cutscene.

 

How nobody has done this before is beyond me.

As I already wrote in the zombie quest, all the zombies in the original Half-Life were blind, so this has like been done a million times in all the additional maps !

I meant in a stealth game, though, where focus on the sight and sound of enemies isn't just noticeable, but integral.

AFAIK, TDM has support for blind NPCs as well as one-eyed NPCs (eyepatch) with less field of view.
