hi, i have a question. so when V and Jackie do the heist to take the chip, during the cutscene where Yorinobu kills his father you can see Adam Smasher. If you have one of the cyberware mods that highlights the enemies that saw you (sorry can't remember what is called), you can see Adam Smasher is highlighted as if he saw you and he knew you are in the wall but he doesn't say anything.
There is 0 reason why he wouldn’t say something to Yorinobu, like “hey Yori, there’s 2 dudes in your wall”.
if you don’t hide and linger around in the apartment eventually he shows up and kills you on the spot. no reason why he wouldn’t do the same if he knew V is in the wall.
So at this point i’m 99% sure this is a bug. You only get to fight him once in the game as a boss battle. You start directly with him in the fight, there is no way to stealth around him. I believe enemies are coded in a “combat mode” and “idle mode”. Since Smasher is one boss fight his code is always in “combat mode”. The only reason he appears red as if he saw you is because they probably didn’t enable “idle mode” for this cutscene.
so i guess what i'm trying to find out, is this a bug or is there some story reason here.
