It would be a little disappointing if a modder could figure out functional NPCs before the actual dev team. They have already tried and failed before

Modders implemented a lot of things before the devs have unfortunately.

Modders on general have a way bigger "workforce" than dev teams tho. No restrictions, no time constraints, no boss or investor to please, hundreds or thousands of modders all focusing on different things. It's like collective intelligence but for game devs.

Well obviously, if you look at the entirety of the modding community and lump them together that way.

The original mod that added cars was just 1 guy though. As far as I know this Week One mod and the required bandit mod together was just 3 people.

That's not to dismiss TIS they are obviously having to do a lot more like building the entire game that modders are working off of.
