Twice in catacombs I nearly jumped out of my skin for same reason:
1.Exploring side tunnel, I see a LAM on wall; disarm LAM- no problem.Pick up LAM---no go,no go,no go. Then I see slot is full so I back away and EEEEEEEEK right over a rat!!! Damn.
2.I'm sneaking aroung the MJ12 commando after getting hostage key; crouch strafing,sneaking...carefull... EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!! another effing rat!
Also hated a)banging into fire barrels
b)being instantly found when a guard strays into fire zone of turret I hacked. Jeez, Louise!

When I was at the NSF airfeild for the firsst time, I came up through the elevator instead of the sewage system and I saw the damn patrol bots every where. I was trying to be super sneaky and stay out of there paths by hiding behind the crates and around obsticals. I had just gotten by one when:
"TARGET AQUIRED!"
I turned around and the little asshole was right behind me. At this point I found the beauty of running very fast.

And who are those maintenance men the friendly Vandenberg bots shoot as you're gong to chopper to go to gas station?

I've played the game... .. . ...um i'm on my forth time through at the sub base and I've never seen it, how'd you make that happen?
Another thing that freaked me out is when I took Maggie Chow's dead body and dropped to the street, after I exited the hotel I turned around and saw that friendly bot, shooting at me! Damn bots!

That's Mike and Larry from the comm building. They must somehow have turned "unfriendly". I've had that happen when I blew up one of the bots with a LAW and they got affected by the blast. But they should have gotten over that by the time you reach Jock's helicopter.
BlackcapedManX, that's a
police bot. They get annoyed when people carry corpses or throw them from high places. :D

Hey I've never consciouslly gone to china, I wouldn't know. And I have a chart for classifying 'bots.
Small ones on wheels: security bots
Medium chicken walkers: patrol bots
Big ass motherf**kers: The afore said or, military bots
and if the IFF is green its afriend unless i shoot it, I didn't know it had sympathy for falling bodies.

The Hong Kong bots enforce the law.Period.
I don't know what triggered the Vandenbots to kill the barneys.I didn't leave any LAMs stuck to walls or do any fighting out there just prior.Weird.Would the orange jumpsuiters have attacked me were they not offed by the bot?
