I cannot fathom how Bethesda still can’t get this right. It can’t be difficult to just set NPC speed to match player speed.

Aah, i think it was tie-fighter, where you could lock on and press a key to match speeds with an enemy - (albeit instantaneous only).
Maybe it was there in x-wing, but i feel like it was one of the minor qol improvements in tie-fighter that made it better.Rozz@lemmy.sdf.org 20 hours ago
I think about that surprisingly often. Also how nice would that be in real life too, not just games.

We have that option for cars to match speed with each other in the same travel lane … It’s called a “train”. We should build more of them.

When they have motorway roadworks here there they often have "average speed limit zones". set like 40-60mph. speed camera enforced at start and end.
Everyone just pootles along steadily at very close to 39 or 49mph no overtaking.
It's great.

They ported it over to X-Wing in later versions. Also, play XWVM, if you haven’t already.
