Hello,
is it only me, or is it impossible to blackjack walking enemies in Thief: Deadly Shadows? When I am not behind one of them, I can swing the thing as I want. As soon as I am behind one of them, the damn thing does not trigger until the guy is standing still.
Fun fact: Sometimes, the enemy is even moved slightly around for the blackjack to do its job by the game engine. As if NPCs have to stand in a very precise position for whole thing to work :cheeky:

You have to get behind an AI and wait for Garrett to raise his arm. Only if his arm is raised will the blackjack knock out the AI. It is a bit finicky.
The AI will often turn slightly to align itself with Garrett's blackjacking animation. This is can be an immersion breaker. I might be wrong, but I think nobody has found a way to fix this.
