Stealth nerf to doorways?

Some months back I had my first Stormie with Hurricane, and using that to try and herd and corral taught me that foes ALWAYS push past me easily.  😛

In all seriousness, there's been no change to doorways.

 

We also don't "stealth nerf" things, ever. If something isn't in the patch notes, it's because of one of the following reasons:

  1. We forgot it / missed it (almost always this) and it'll be added if someone points this out to us
  2. It's an unintended change (ie: a bug) and it'll be fixed if someone points it out to us
  3. It's an exploit fix, which we generally do not include in the patch notes until we're confident the fix works and does not need to be rolled back

The real difficulty is trying to imagine what some of these office buildings look like on the outside.  I was in a Manticore TF yesterday and wondered out loud, "Who the hell designs buildings like this?!?"

This is correct.  The problem wasn't the doorways themselves, it was inherent in the Ambush code and the interaction with doorways.  A new mechanic had to be created specifically to handle the problem, the AmNotBush code.  Now doorways won't be able to appear to be bushes and deceive players any more.

Get busy living... or get busy dying.  That's goddamn right.

I'm still waiting for someone to port me to the end of the last mission of LGTF.  I swear it takes me 20 minutes to stealth to the end of that nightmare map.
